Nutrient Aggregation Function

Term · Environment · MLC-T-ENV-019231

A function in the Advanced Search that can calculate aggregated phosphorus and aggregated nitrogen loads. Section 3.1.3 of the Technical Users Background Document for the Water Pollutant Loading Tool (https://echo.epa.gov/trends/loading-tool/resources/technical-support-document#technical) describes how the Loading Tool performs nutrient aggregation. Search Considerations: The Loading Tool calculates aggregated nitrogen and phosphorus loadings by selecting pollutant loadings associated with parameter codes in ICIS-NPDES that are on the nitrogen and phosphorus lists. These lists are available in the Technical Users Background Document for the Water Pollutant Loading Tool (https://echo.epa.gov/trends/loading-tool/resources/technical-support-document#technical). These data are from ICIS-NPDES.
