@8C@Updated 8/95
@0C@The set of hourly influent flow for the Honouliuli Wastewater Treatment
Plant has been updated to include data through 3/31/95.  The data set for the
Sand Island WWTP now includes data through 5/31/95.

@0A@                IMPORTANT INFORMATION CONCERNING HOURLY FLOW
                      DATA FOR THE HONOULIULI WWTP

Files of hourly flow data for the Honouliuli facility previously available
in this file area contained fields incorrectly labeled "effluent flow";
EFFLUENT FLOW DATA FOR THE HONOULIULI FACILITY DOES NOT EXIST.  The
mislabeled files have been replaced with files containing only influent
flow fields.  According to the DPW, City and County of Honolulu, influent
flow can be used as an estimate of effluent flow.

               New data in this file area

The set of hourly influent flow data for the Honouliuli WWTP (see above)
and hourly influent and effluent flow data for the Sand Island WWTP now
includes data through 12/31/94.

@0E@In this file area:

@0B@Updated 1/95: new information on Sand Island and Honouliuli WWTP influent
and effluent data. Updated information will be in BLUE TEXT.)

@0E@Data files from Department of Public Works (DPW), City any County of Honolulu,
Water Quality Branch are stored. Overall description of the File Area and the
file descriptions are included in this file.

Data from DPW consist of water quality and other measurements made during
their water quality sampling events conducted per their NPDES permits for Sand
Island and Honouliuli Waste Water Treatment Plants (WWTP). All files are in
Lotus 1-2-3 (WK1) or ASCII formats. @0B@As of 1/95, hourly influent
and effluent data for both the Sand Island and Honouliuli WWTP are
available.  The data for the Sand Island WWTP covers 7/92 through 9/94;
the data for the Honouliuli WWTP covers 1/94 to 9/94.  @8B@However, since there
are gaps in this data, caution must be used when using it.@0B@  Please read the
header information in the files for location of the@8B@ @0B@gaps in the data.
This data is available in both Lotus 1-2-3 (WK1) and ASCII delimited formats.
@0E@By request,@0B@ @0E@the files can be converted to other desired formats.
Contact person at DPW is Mr. Ross Tanimoto.
                         Phone: 808-527-6754  FAX: 808-523-4642

It will also be very helpful in interpreting the data in this file area if
you have copies of the NPDES permits for the two WWTPs. If you would like to
obtain copies of the NPDES permits, please give call John Scott at Garcia and
Associates (415-789-9242) or leave e-mail on the BBS system.


The data sets are categorized into four types:

1. Bacteria data  - collected from receiving water stations in Mamala Bay per
                    NPDES permits.

2. CTD data       - collected conductivity, temperature and depth (CTD) meter
                    data from some of the sites described in the NPDES permits.

3. Discharge data - monthly average discharge data from both WWTPs.

4. Water quality
   data           - basic water quality data from sampling sites described in
                    the NPDES sites. Parameters inculudes the following:
                    density, temperature, salinity, oxygen, nitrate, ammonia,
                    Nitrogen and a few others.

@0B@5. Hourly flow
   data           - hourly influent and effluent flow data for both WWTPs.

@0E@The station identification codes in the data file are explained in separate
files call @8A@SI_STNS.TXT@0E@ and @8A@BP_STNS.TXT@0E@ and must be downloaded along with the
data files in order to determine the station names and locations.

Bacteria data set contains the most extensive amount of data. If requested by
investigators, this data set can be converted in a database format so that
customized retrieval can be performed while on-line on the BBS through the
"DOOR".
