As a relatively new source of summertime flow to the upper Tualatin River, discharges from the Fernhill Natural Treatment System (NTS) have the potential to enhance or degrade downstream water quality. Discharges of low nutrient concentrations and a dose of beneficial algae could enhance downstream river conditions, but releasing an innocula of cyanobacteria could also initiate a harmful algal bloom downstream. Use of the NTS, therefore, represents an opportunity to improve and manage algal conditions and the ecology of the Tualatin River, above and beyond the avoidance of releasing any potentially harmful discharges."
