ABSTRACT

Benthic community structure and fish community structure are monitored quantitatively at sampling stations in the shallow marine environment near the Waianae Ocean Outfall for possible effects of treated sewage effluent inshore of the outfall diffuser discharge. The 2000 Data are compared with Data from previous years to determine whether any statistically significant change has occurred in the measured biological parameters.
