Surface-water supplies are important sources of drinking water for residents in the Triangle area of North Carolina, which is located within the upper Cape Fear and Neuse River Basins. Since 1988, the U.S. Geological Survey and a consortium of local governments have participated in a cooperative effort, known as the Triangle Area Water Supply Monitoring Project, to track water-quality and quantity conditions in several of the area's water-supply reservoirs and streams. This report summarizes the hydrologic and water-quality monitoring activities through this cooperative effort, including an overview of previous and current data collection and qualityassurance and quality-control activities.

contributed greatly to this study. Their program coordination, field expertise, and scientific insights have been critical to the success of this effort and will continue to be relied upon in future study years. Staff at the Fairfax County Environmental Services Laboratory performed the nutrient analyses for most samples collected; their work is sincerely appreciated. Many U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) staff have contributed to the design, operation, and interpretation of this study since its inception in 2007. These combined efforts have produced years of consistent data collection and foundational knowledge that greatly benefited this report. Technical reviews by Doug Chambers of the USGS and Jonathan Duncan of the Pennsylvania State University strengthened this report and are greatly appreciated. The authors also thank Kaycee Faunce of the USGS for helping identify and communicate the findings of this research.
