| Description | A Professional Project submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Water Resources, Water Resources Program, University of New Mexico. Polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) have been detected with increasing frequency in water and fish tissue samples in the Rio Grande Basin above Cochiti Dam (RGBACD), which correlates with the use of improved analytical methods for quantifying PCBs. Levels of PCBs identified in some fish have exceeded levels considered safe for human consumption, resulting in a “Fish Consumption Advisory” for Abiquiu and Cochiti Reservoirs and the Rio Grande from Pojoaque Creek to Frijoles Canyon (Bandelier... |
