KRIS Sheepscot: Chart Page

Area Basin-wide/Regional
Topic WQ: E. Coli counts SVCA Sites 1994-2003
 
Caption:  This chart contains summary statistical data of all E.Coli laboratory data from SVCA sample sites between 1994 and 2003. The median of the data measurements are represented by the notches, the 10th and 90th percentiles are represented by the ends of the boxes. The 5th and 95th percentile were excluded from the chart because the extreme values skew the chart axis such that the other data are difficult to read. The reference lines show the AA geometric (32/100mL) and instantaneous (214/100mL) Standards that were developed to represent the E.Coli occurrence in natural waters. E.Coli levels in the Sheepscot exceed these standards at many locations in the basin. High levels of E. Coli indicate a possible contamination problem from raw sewage or animal wastes. See Info Links for more information.
