Synopsis
Excerpt from Delta and Suisun Bay Water Quality Investigation: August 1967
Seven hundred miles of meandering waterways interlace the low-lying islands of California's agriculturally rich Delta. Into this area of waterway and farmland flow the waters of the great Central Valley; south through the Sacramento River, and north by way of the San Joaquin River.
This bulletin presents the results of a comprehensive study of the water of the channel system of the sacramento-san Joaquin Delta, Suisun Bay, and the surrounding waterways as they relate to potential improvement in water quality which can be accomplished as a result of the construction of major works of the State Water Project.
The Delta and Suisun Bay Water Quality Investigation was conducted over a four-year period. Water quality information resulting from the investigation has aided in the planning of the Delta facilities and the San Joaquin drainage facilities. This is important because maintenance of satisfactory water quality within the Delta is related to the successful operation of these facilities.
