Description:
Ambient Monitoring Programs to Protect Public Health, Detect Trends and Identify Hot Spots including:
Recreational Shellfish Monitoring Program
Swimming Lake, Stream, and Marine Water Monitoring
The Bacteria Pollution Identification and Correction Program aims to reduce threats to public health through
eliminating sources of bacteria pollution within the County. Staff uses monitoring data to determine the causes
and sources of bacterial water pollution in specific geographical areas. The goals of a PIC project are to protect
public health, protect shellfish resources, and preserve, protect and restore surface water quality. Common
sources of bacterial pollution include failing on-site sewage systems and animal waste.
The Wellhead protection program eliminates potential drinking water aquifer pollution sources through well
surveys. These surveys insure pollution is not transported into the aquifer at the wellhead by stormwater runoff.
