2014 Bacteria Data - Lakes, Ponds and Reservoirs Enterococci Data 2014 Bacteria Data - Lakes, Ponds and Reservoirs Enterococci Data Two groups of bacteria are monitored to indicate the presense of human sewage and associated pathogens, or disease causing organisms - fecal coliforms and enterococci. The Rhode Island Department of Health (RIHealth) uses a single-value enterococci standard for licensed swimming beaches. The Rhode Island Department of Environmental Management (RIDEM) uses a geometric mean approach for contact recreation standards on all other waters (fresh and salt). In addition, as required by the National Shellfish Sanitation Program for shellfish waters and their tributaries and as an indicator of overall water quality, RIDEM assesses fecal coliform levels. (Fecal coliform data is available for marine waters and shellfish area tributaries in the "Tidal Rivers Bacteria" file). While URIWW's Analytical Laboratories are State certified, Watershed Watch data is intended for screening purposes only. However our data are very valuable for targeting areas of concerns and for tracking potential sources of bacterial contamination. Samples from various sites may have been collected over a period of days for each collection period, so may reflect dry versus wet weather or rain event values. Please contact Watershed Watch for specific sample dates. Any result above the state standard is considered unsafe, and swimmers should refrain from swimming until results return to acceptable levels, or at least for several days after heavy rain. RI Department of Health standards for recreational contact (i.e.swimming): Fresh Waters - Single sample not to exceed 61 enterococci per 100 mL. RI Department of Environmental Management Enterococci Standards: Non-designated Bathing Beach (Fresh) Waters Geometric Mean Density - Not to exceed 54 enterococci per 100 mL. Designated Bathing Beach (Fresh) Waters Geometric Mean Density - Not to exceed 33 enterococci per 100 mL. Watershed code MONITORING LOCATION MAY JUNE JULY AUG. SEPT. OCT.

  • Waste Management Plan
    PHASE II STORM WATER MANAGEMENT PLAN CITY OF PROVIDENCE PROVIDENCE, RHODE ISLAND MARCH 2004 Fuss & O’Neill Inc. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The City of Providence currently implements many of the elements of a successful Storm Water Management Program. In order to fully comply with the RIPDES General Permit issued by RIDEM, the City must implement additional measures. The following table (also found in Appendix K) outlines those measures, identifies the responsible parties, measurable goals, and provides a schedule for implementation over the five year permit term. The listed measures were identified through several workshops conducted with the City’s Storm Water Committee. Technical Memorandums (TMs) were prepared for each of the six minimum control measures. At these workshops the TMs were reviewed and implementation alternatives were discussed. Where possible, the measurable goals are identified as quantifiable measures. In other instances the measurable goals are presented as discrete activities. For these, the conduct of the activity is intended to serve as the goal. F:\P2002\362\A10\Final Plan\SWMPP-final.doc EXECUTIVE SUMMARY STORM WATER MANAGEMENT PROGRAM PLAN SUMMARY AND SCHEDULE CITY OF PROVIDENCE Providence, Rhode Island This table identifies how the Plan complies with the General Permit (RIR040000) requirements for the six minimum best management practices. While this report identifies many alternatives, the items that the City has committed to are specified in this table.
