Date       Constituent                 Concentration
08/10/94   Total Nitrate + Nitrite     15.71
10/30/95   Chloride                     0.70

Additional comments:
The period of record for flow at Coon Creek near Stoddard, WI is not sufficient to 
cover the entire period of record for the constituent data. Discharge at the sample 
site is estimated by linear regression with the Root River at Houston, MN and a 
land/area conversion factor (see flow conversion above).  The conversion equation 
used was: discharge at Coon Creek near Stoddard, WI (05386999) = 0.0640 x Root River 
at Houston, MN (05385000)
R2 = 0.4932
