More data may exist. The orginal data was not reviewed before converting into a coverage. This coverage and associated databases should only be used for general ground water quality assessments. Logical_Consistency_Report: Does not apply for points. Completeness_Report: The coverage contains ground water quality data from the USGS water quality database. Other data may exist. The coverage is for the Bear River Basin, Wyoming only. The ground water quality consists of the coverage files and an associated database that contains the water quality data. The relationship is a one to many. We did not request all parameters that are contained in the USGS database. The following are parameters that are included in the coverage: total dissolved solids, nitrogen (NO2+NO3), phosphorus, magnesium, calcium, sodium, potassium, chloride, sulfate, fluoride, silica, arsenic boron, iron, manganese, silver, zinc, aluminum, lead, and carbonate hardness.
