Abstract

The quality of water passing through the Cedar Bayou Generating Station was monitored during the first half of 1979 by observing the growth and survival of fishes and crustaceans in ponds and aquaria receiving water from the discharge canal, and by maintaining fish in cages in the intake, discharge canal, and cooling lake. In addition, a regular program of sampling fishes, crustaceans, and phytoplankton in Cedar Bayou, the discharge canal, and the cooling lake was carried out.
