Mississippi National River and Recreation Area Conditions and Trends Report

This exhaustive study, entitled Water Quality Conditions and Trends in the Mississippi National River and Recreational Area 1976-2005, is an excellent contribution to our understanding of water quality impacts and trends in the metro Mississippi River.

A special thank you to all of the report authors for their dedicated work on this project. Much of this data was made available for use in our recently released State of the River Report. The report is available online at NPS.gov.
