East Bay E. coli Monitoring

Watershed Stewards Program Corpsmembers and Scientists from the SF Bay Regional Water Quality Control Board created this StoryMap to visually demonstrate to the public the current and prior bacteria levels in local East Bay creeks. The purpose of this StoryMap is to represent up to date bacteria levels and give recommendations on whether the water levels are safe for contact. The creeks that are being sampled weekly are Baxter Creek and San Pablo Creek in Richmond, California and Sausal Creek, Peralta Creek, and Arroyo Viejo Creek in Oakland, California. To use this StoryMap, scroll down through the application.
