March 14 Data - Continuation of Testing on Site #8


The March 14 samples represent "normal" conditions, where the creek was 1 to 2' deep, cloudy and occasionally misty, but no rain. The coliforms/dl are similar to the results we obtained during conditions
of moderate rain, whereas the post-flooding conditions of March 11 gave the highest numbers. 
The unusual data in this March 14 testing was the numbers from pipe "C", which exceeded sites #1 and #5, where previously the numbers at pipe C were lower than either #1 or #5. Also, when we sampled at this time, there was a lot of detergent-type foaming from pipe "C" (see picture).
