Among its major responsibilities, the Susquehanna River Basin Commission is a leader in data collection and analysis for water quality monitoring, mine drainage and water resource availability.
SRBC makes its findings readily available to the public both on-line and through printed publications. The reports include:
-- Remote Water Quality Monitoring Network, Data Report of Baseline Conditions for 2010/2011 (Publication #280) - Provides data that characterize baseline water quality conditions to determine the existing conditions within select watersheds where SRBC has installed monitoring stations to generate real-time data that are uploaded to SRBC’s web site.
-- Juniata River Subbasin Year-1 Survey (Publication #274) - Provides data on the water chemistry, biological and habitat conditions throughout the Juniata River Subbasin in 2010.
-- Susquehanna Large River Assessment Project (Publication #276) – Provides data on the biological assessment in 2010 of the large rivers in the Susquehanna River Basin.
-- West Branch Susquehanna Subbasin Year-2 Survey, An Assessment of the Abandoned Mine Drainage Impacts in Drury Run and Birch Island Run, Clinton County, PA (Publication #275) - Provides data, collected in 2010 and 2011, for water chemistry, biological and habitat conditions in the mine drainage-impaired Drury Run and Birch Island Run Watersheds, and includes recommendations for restoration.
-- Nutrients and Suspended Sediment in the Susquehanna River Basin (Publication #278) - Provides data on nutrient and suspended sediment loads and yields in 2010 at SRBC’s six long-term monitoring sites and data on long-term trends.
-- Anthracite Region Mine Drainage Remediation Strategy (Publication #279) - Reports on SRBC’s analysis of the impacts from abandoned mine drainage in the anthracite region and SRBC’s recommended strategy to help agencies and organizations achieve comprehensive and long-term environmental results.
-- Morrison Cove Water Resources Availability Study (Publication #277) - Reports on SRBC’s assessment of and recommendations for the water resources of the Morrison Cove area, which SRBC identified as a potentially water resource stressed area in the mid-2000s.
