Derwent Estuary Recreational Water Quality monitoring program - Kangaroo Bay

Kangaroo Bay monitoring site is collected as part of the Derwent Bay Watch program. Derwent Bay Watch is a collaborative program between councils and state government that tests water quality at 19 bays, coves and other sites around the estuary during summer months.
Water samples are collected each Tuesday from the start of December to the end of March and analysed for the faecal indicator bacteria Enterococci (Enteralert method) at the Public health Lab. Because the samples must be cultured, it takes several days to publish the results.

袋鼠湾监测点是德文特湾观察计划的一部分。德文特湾观察计划是地方议会与州政府合作开展的项目，于夏季对河口周边19个海湾、小海湾及其他地点的水质进行检测。

从12月初至3月底，每周二采集水样，并在公共卫生实验室采用Enteralert法检测粪便指示菌肠球菌（Enterococci）。由于水样需经培养，结果发布需耗时数日。
