- Standarized sampling protocol; repeat sampling (E.g. CRI methods outlined in Curry and Munkittrick, 2005); Focus on Cumulative Effects Monitoring (see www.cwn-rce.ca); More stakeholder/community input regarding priorities; create a (quick glance) "report
- Notes
- Lower reach of SJR - data from 1900-1960 suggest this region is an area of concern due to elevated TN and TP, however there is unsufficient data from 1960-2008 to assess the current status
