            <gco:CharacterString>The surface water quality (WQ) program, as part of the Joint Canada/Alberta Implementation Plan, is designed to improve the ability to detect change and predict effects in relation to point and non‐point sources. A mass‐balance approach has been used for assessing the quantity, movement, and cycling of materials in the watershed. Applying this approach required a sampling program which included quantification of the sources, transport, flux, and fate of materials and contaminants. The Surface WQ monitoring sampling includes, in part, collection of;                - event (freshet and rain) based WQ samples in tributaries ranging from daily to bi-weekly,                - WQ samples in the Athabasca River using cross-channel transect methods at specified Phase 1 sites,                 - enhanced (additional parameters) WQ  sampling at M9, M12, and M11A and at 5 new interconnecting channel stations within the Expanded Geographical Area (EGA),                - ground water samples in specific high priority tributaries, and                - auto-monitoring (near real-time) on a subset of parameters at sites in the EGA</gco:CharacterString>

Une approche fondée sur le bilan massique a été utilisée pour évaluer la quantité, les déplacements et le cycle des matières dans le bassin versant. L'application de cette approche exigeait un programme d'échantillonnage incluant la quantification des sources, le transport, le flux et le devenir des matières et des contaminants. L'échantillonnage dans le cadre du programme de surveillance de la qualité des eaux de surface comprend, en partie, les éléments suivants :                      - des échantillons prélevés dans les affluents pour surveiller la qualité de l'eau selon les événements (crue nivale et pluie), sur une base quotidienne ou bimensuelle;                      - des échantillons prélevés dans la rivière Athabasca pour surveiller la qualité de l'eau dans des sites précis de la première phase à l'aide des méthodes des transects à travers un chenal;                      - des échantillons améliorés (paramètres supplémentaires) prélevés pour surveiller la qualité de l'eau aux stations M9, M12 et M11A, ainsi qu'à cinq nouvelles stations des voies de passage dans la zone géographique élargie;                      - des échantillons d'eau souterraine prélevés dans certains affluents hautement prioritaires;                      - une autosurveillance (en temps quasi réel) d'un sous-ensemble de paramètres dans des sites de la zone géographique élargie.</gmd:LocalisedCharacterString>
