     "text": "Water samples are collected 4 to 12 times a year for selected nutrients, trace metals, sediment, and other water-quality constituents. Intensive sampling (12 samples per year) is being conducted on major Great Lakes Tributaries including the Au Sable River, Saginaw River, Clinton River, Kalamazoo River, Muskegon River, and Grand River. Following a rotational schedule, other streams are sampled intensively every 5 years in addition to being sampled quarterly during their off years. Results of this program are being used by MDEQ to help determine the water-quality status of Michigan's rivers and streams, and to estimate chemical loads to the Great Lakes. This project has been collecting data since 1998, and Statewide trends in water-quality for the major rivers and streams have been evaluated using this data. Information on the MDEQ Water Chemistry Monitoring Project is available here."
