The monitoring program should be<br />
conducted by a consortium of local<br />
water quality monitoring entities<br />
including the University of Toledo,<br />
TESD, and the US Army Corps of<br />
Engineers (ACOE), and involving Ohio<br />
EPA with oversight being provided by<br />
the RAP Implementation Committee.<br />

contaminant level, to be done at four<br />
year intervals at each TESD site and at<br />
several BWQR sites. (2.3.8.2)<br />
To have a relatively even workload<br />
each year, which could be useful <strong>for</strong> a<br />
long-term monitoring program, a<br />
specific group of sites could be studied<br />
each year with the objective of rotating<br />
back to the initial set of sites every fifth<br />
year. (2.3.8.2)<br />
