Fig. 3. Total concentrations of the various pharmaceutical and other organic chemical categories in water samples collected at sites upstream and downstream of effluent discharges on the White River, Decatur Branch, Spavinaw Creek, Mud Creek, Spring Creek, and Osage Creek, 2004. The data from Mud Creek represent the average total concentration of various organic wastewater compound (OWC) categories from the water samples collected in March and August 2004; numbers above the vertical bars represent the number of chemicals detected in the collected water samples at each site.
