Media release: The Etowah River Bacteria Graph for Aug. 17 shows the geometric mean for our three testing sites was 42.4 cfu/100ml, below the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency "safe" level of 126 cfu/100ml.
The following are the results from our three testing sites:
| | 8/17/2011 Water Temp. 23.5 C |
| | 51.2 cfu/100ml |
| | 25.9 cfu/100ml |
| US 411 | 57.3 cfu/100ml |
| Geometric Mean: | 42.4 cfu/100ml |
Since CRBI began this testing program in March, the geometric mean of the three testing sites has been within "safe limits" in 18 of 21 monitoring events. www.coosa.org
