Kitsap Public Health District Pollution Source Identification and Correction: Protocol Manual CHAPTER 3 CONDUCTING SHORELINE SURVEYS A shoreline survey is the inventory and bacterial assessment of all flowing discharges to the project area. Most project areas that include a QAPP require both wet and dry weather shoreline surveys. Wet weather season surveys are conducted from Oct. 1 through April 30. Dry weather season occur surveys from May 1 through Sep 30. Dry weather events can identify problems in areas where storm water masks FC sources or where residences are only occupied in the summer. Wet weather assessments can identify OSS failures caused by high seasonal groundwater and surface water drainage issues. Wet weather conditions are met when water is flowing off parcels and stormwater is flowing in roadside ditches or storm systems. Check with the Project Lead and/or Program Manager if you have questions regarding any of these items. The checklist should be used to ensure staff are prepared for shoreline surveys and have gathered the necessary equipment and supplies. A complete equipment/supply list is found in Appendix B.
