Discharge and suspended sediment data were collected from October 2016 to Febuary 2017 at the NR0 site. Data was collected immediately down stream of Old Pacific Hwy SE bridge during a bridge measurement and approximately 100 meters below bridge for a boat measurement. Data collection from the bridge has been ongoing since 1968 but data collection from a boat was first attempted October 21, 2016 during this data collection series. Suspended sediment sample and discrete discharge data at this site are available at: https://waterdata.usgs.gov/wa/nwis/inventory/?site_no=12090240&agency_cd=USGS&. A summary of suspended-sediment sample data are provided with this data release in the file NR0_SSC_summary.csv.

This dataset is the basis for the U.S. Geological Survey Scientific Investigations Report "An evaluation of methods for computing annual water quality loads", which utilized available data from Heidelberg University and the U.S. Geological Survey to evaluate the accuracy of various methods for computing annual water-quality loads. This dataset contains two files used in the report: "QW_FLOW.csv", which contains the water-quality sample and streamflow data used to develop water-quality load estimates, and "QW_LOAD.csv", which contains observed and estimated annual loads.
