ABSTRACT
Samples for Kaneohe Bay were collected by the State Health Department on May 16, 1966, and delivered to the WRRC laboratory for analysis for phosphate. The general location of collection points in the Kaneohe Bay are shown in the appendix as Figure 3, along with the computations pertinent to this report. In addition to the sea water samples, the grab samples of the Kaneohe STP effluent phosphates were determined using different dilution waters to demonstrate the effect of dilution water salinity and the variation in the results. In addition, Waimanalo sea water phosphates reported earlier (April 29, 1966) were recalculated and results were included in this report.
