QUICK OVERVIEW
Before City of Atlanta convinced USGS to shut down, the Water Quality Monitoring Station on Intrenchment Creek at Constitution Road collected data critical to ensuring that point-source sewage pollution from City of Atlanta’s Combined Sewage Overflow Facilities were not exceeding permitted limits on Intrenchment Creek. Downstream, when the creek joins the South River, the water bodies combine making any data collected from USGS’ suggested new location (a mile downstream on the South River) completely irrelevant to monitoring the pollution coming directly from City of Atlanta facilities on Intrenchment Creek.
