| Abstract | This report summarizes trends in the Christina Basin from 1995-2010 for (1) population, (2) land use, (3) water quality, (4) population/water quality vs. land use, (5) water temperature, and (6) streamflow. The Christina River Basin, the second largest tributary to the Delaware Estuary, lies in Chester County, Pa., and New Castle County, Del., with a small sliver in Cecil County, Md. The Christina Basin has unique interstate coordination challenges, as it is the only watershed in the entire Delaware Basin that includes more than one state. Since 1994, Delaware, Pennsylvania, the EPA, and the Delaware River Basin Commission have been working together to restore the Brandywine, Red Clay, and White Clay Creeks and Christina River to fishable, swimmable, and potable status (as per the Federal Clean Water Act) and state surface-water quality standards through a phased watershed-restoration approach. | en_US |
