Water Quality Monitoring
Every summer from Memorial Day until Labor Day Chattahoochee River Conservancy collects water quality data at popular swimming, rafting, and boating locations in the Middle Chattahoochee Watershed and send it directly to your phone via the Swim Guide App. The Data is also available on the Swim Guide Website for a friendly desktop version. |
Chattahoochee River Conservancy utilizes the standardized state criteria of 235 E. coli/100 ml for collecting and analyzing water samples. Test results are expressed as Most Probable Number (MPN) of E. coli Colony Forming Units (CFU) per 100 mL.
Single Samples that read 235 or below are safe for recreational use. Single Samples that read higher than 235 is not recommended for recreational use.
