Dawson (2008) conclude, based on multiple years of stream temperature monitoring results (1994-2008), that present Wenatchee National Forest Plan Standards are simply not attainable in all Entiat/Mad waters in all years. Future iterations of Watershed Analyses and Forest Plan revisions should take into consideration deviations from current water temperature standards that appear to be related to natural conditions within watersheds.

Although patterns of high pH in the Entiat and Mad Rivers are consistent with photosynthetic forcing, nutrient enrichment has not been identified as a concern in the WDOE Freshwater Monitoring Unit’s monthly sampling program at the Entiat gage (WDOE 2009). Concentrations of ammonia-nitrogen, nitratenitrogen, total nitrogen, orthophosphate, and total phosphorus measured from October 2006 through December 2008 are, in general, similar to what would be expected in streams draining relatively undisturbed watersheds (McCutcheon et al. 1993).

A pool is slow-water habitat with a gradient less than 1% that is normally deeper and wider than aquatic habitats upstream and downstream from it (Armantrout 1998). To be counted, a pool must span more than half the wetted width, include the thalweg, be longer than it is wide, and the maximum depth must be at least 1.5 times the crest depth. Plunge pools are included in this definition even though they may not be as long as they are wide. Residual pool depth refers to the maximum depth of a pool if there is little or no flow in the channel. It is calculated as the difference between the maximum pool depth and the maximum crest depth (Overton et al. 1997).
