Gold King Mine Data, August 30, 2015
Data from Gold King Mine Response
EPA sediment samples for August 11 and 19, 2015 were collected from 10 locations in the Animas River.
EPA sediment samples for August 13 and 14, 2015 were collected from 17 locations in the Animas River.
EPA sediment samples for August 16 and 18, 2015 were collected from 2 locations in the Animas River.
EPA has done a review of the data which included a comparison to screening levels for exposure during recreational use to determine if metal concentrations are consistent with pre-event levels.
Based on the results of the sediment samples, sediment concentrations are trending toward pre-event conditions.
