Water Quality

Updated Feb 3

Escherichia coli (E. coli) Bacteria16.0 MPN/100mL

Common fecal coliform bacteria indicating possible sewage contamination. EPA recreational limit: <126 MPN/100mL.

Water Temperature12.7 °C

Water temperature directly affects fish metabolism and activity. Optimal range varies by species.

Nh3 (mg/L) (Water Quality Parameter)0.0

Nh3 (mg/L) - a water quality measurement. Contact local authorities for specific safety guidelines.

Turbidity (Water Clarity)1.7 NTU

Measures water cloudiness caused by suspended particles. Lower values indicate clearer water. <25 NTU is good.

Water Temperature12.7 °C

Water temperature directly affects fish metabolism and activity. Optimal range varies by species.

Electrical Conductivity314.0 µS/cm

Measures dissolved ions and minerals in water. Indicates salinity and pollution levels. Freshwater: 100-500 µS/cm.

Ortho P (mg/L) (Water Quality Parameter)0.0

Ortho P (mg/L) - a water quality measurement. Contact local authorities for specific safety guidelines.

Turbidity (Water Clarity)1.7 NTU
