1num concentrations are not to exceed 10 p.g/1, the recommended<br />

lim'it set hy the U.S. Geological Survey.<br />

The exa-mple in figure 3 also illustrates that the discharge<br />

at the point in question is the all-important factor<br />

in determining the peak concentration which will<br />

exist. I-I,ad the discharge at the water-treat1nent plant<br />

been 400 ct~bic fe~t per second instead of 200 cfs, the peak<br />

concentrations at ·the plant would have been significantly<br />

less.<br />
