Data Used to Assess Water Quality: | Available data indicate sufficient exceedances of bacterial indicator objectives. There were 5 out of 90 samples that exceeded the single sample maximum for enterococci, 5 out of 91 that exceeded the single sample maximum for total coliform, and 20 out of 78 exceedances of the geomean for total coliform (USEPA, 2007). | ||||

Water Quality Objective/Criterion: | Title 17 C.C.R. Section 7958 states: Based on a single sample, the density of bacteria in water from each sampling station at a public beach or public water contact sports area shall not exceed:
(A) 1,000 total coliform bacteria per 100 milliliters, if the ratio of fecal/total coliform bacteria exceeds 0.1; or (B) 10,000 total coliform bacteria per 100 milliliters; or (C) 400 fecal coliform bacteria per 100 milliliters; or (D) 104 enterococcus bacteria per 100 milliliters. Based on the mean of the logarithms of the results of at least five weekly samples during any 30-day sampling period, the density of bacteria in water from any sampling station at a public beach or public water contact sports area, shall not exceed: (A) 1,000 total coliform bacteria per 100 milliliters; or (B) 200 fecal coliform bacteria per 100 milliliters; or (C) 35 enterococcus bacteria per 100 milliliters.
