Effects of Wastewater Effluent Discharge and Treatment Facility Upgrades on Environmental and Biological Conditions of the Upper Blue River, Johnson C

U. S. Department of the Interior

The Johnson County Blue River Main Wastewater Treat-ment Facility discharges into the upper Blue River near the border between Johnson County, Kansas and Jackson County, Missouri. During 2005 through 2007 the wastewater treat-ment facility underwent upgrades to increase capacity and include biological nutrient removal. The effects of wastewater effluent on environmental and biological conditions of the upper Blue River were assessed by comparing an upstream site to two sites located downstream from the wastewater treatment facility. Environmental conditions were evaluated using previously and newly collected discrete and continuous data, and were compared with an assessment of biological community composition and ecosystem function along the upstream-downstream gradient.
