Water quality is high in the river though there are some arsenic exceedances that are likely because of the naturally occurring geothermal geology in the watershed.

"We generally use the term mid century to differentiate the buildings of the post World War II years from the output of the pre-War years. Mid century is an interesting term. It links architecture in the US to the growth and change resulting from post-War power and prosperity, even as the geo politics of the Cold War cast a haze of uncertainty over the period. Like everything else at mid century, architecture was shaped by these conditions." - Mary Reid Brunstrom
