Water Quality Objective/Criterion: |
The Basin Plan bacteria objectives state that to protect water contact recreation in marine waters individual samples shall not exceed the following limits: the total coliform density shall not exceed 10000/100 ml; the fecal coliform density shall not exceed 400/100 ml; the enterococcus density shall not exceed 104/100 ml; and the total coliform density shall not exceed 1,000/100 ml, if the ratio of fecal-to-total coliform exceeds 0.1 as single samples. The bacteria objectives also establish that the geometric means of individual samples shall not exceed the following limits: the total coliform density shall not exceed 1000/100 ml, the fecal coliform density shall not exceed 200/100 ml, and the enterococcus density shall not exceed 35/100 ml, as a geometric mean. The bacteria objectives are found in Attachment A of Regional Board Resolution No. 2001-018. |
