Effects of Storage Impoundments on Water Quality
When water in a free-flowing stream is impounded in a large storage reservoir, changes in the physical, bacteriological, sanitary-chemical, and mineral quality of the water are produced. Although most of the changes result in a generally improved water quality, certain specific qualities and downstream water uses may be adversely affected. A wide variety of observations made on reservoir waters in the Tennessee Valley are presented and summarized herein. The facts obtained and the general principles deduced therefrom should be helpful in forecasting the changes in water quality that are likely to occur in any proposed reservoir.
