Sub-Watershed Investigative Monitoring (SWIM)
Entry ID:

Summary
Abstract:
This program has direct ties to The Annapolis River Guardians (ARG), which

Their data shows that point and non-point fecal coliform contamination is the most serious water quality problem in the region, however it does not locate where the problems are originating from. The way we monitored for fecal coliform had to be taken to a new level in order to locate these sources.
