The purpose of this report is to present data about the elemental composition of sediments collected from Lake Roosevelt in September 2004, to evaluate the release of elements from the sediments after sequential selective extraction, and to determine the concentration of elements in filtered water after contact with the sediments. Several types of reservoir water (surface water, porewater, water incubated with sediments, and water tumbled with sediment) were analyzed for elemental concentrations.
