Resumen:
The Bah´ıa Blanca urban wastewater treatment plant (UWWTP) discharges the wastewaterfrom the city into the Bah´ıa Blanca Estuary through a tidal channel located 4 km south fromthe closest city, Ingeniero White, and 1.7 km south from the mouth of the Napost´a Creek.There are four UWWTPs discharging in the Bah´ıa Blanca Estuary, with the highest flow fromthe Bah´ıa Blanca UWWTP at 65000 m3 d−1, corresponding to 77% of the total (Heffner etal. 2003). Wastewater is an important source of freshwater in the Bah´ıa Blanca estuarycomprising 23.3% of the overall freshwater, with contributions of a similar magnitude as thefreshwater inputs from the Napost´a Grande Creek, 86400 m3 d−1 (Carrica 1998) and theSauce Chico creek, 164000 m3 d−1.
