ATTAClli~lEivTII The following aquatic samples (non-radiological) were missed or destroyed due to circumstances other than inclement >>cather:

1.

Ichthyoplankton - August 8-9, 1977 15 Samples Cause:

Sample tows (5 minutes) during heavy zooplankton bloom resulted in greatly increased sample densities.

The preservative (as per procedure) was not sufficient and the samples "soured" in transit to laboratory.

Corrective Action:

Revised procedure to allow for shorter tow times as conditions dictate.

2.

Phytoplankton - June 1977 NMPE Transect 441 1 Sample Cause:

bfalfunction of submarine photometer.

There was no spare available at time of sampling.

Corrective Action:

Two photometers are now available for the 1978 season.

3.

l(ater Quality - Dissolved Oxygen Fitz Transect 20'ontour 1 Sample Cause:

Procedure violation, Corrective Action:

Sampling Procedure in itself >>as sufficient, and revision is not warranted.

As -this particular analysis is an insitu analysis, the weekly field sample success report will be revised to include specific reference to insitu water quality analysis.

This change in reporting procedure >>ill allow for resampling within the specified frequency.
