    Ph River, Brook and Tributary Sites the Normal Ph Range For

    2016 Parameter Data: pH River, Brook and Tributary Sites The standard measurement of acidity is pH. A pH of less than 7 is acidic; above pH 7 is alkaline, also known by the term “basic.” The pH measurement is a logarithmic measurement, which means that each unit decrease in pH equals a ten-fold increase in acidity. In other words, pH 5 water is ten times more acidic than pH 6 water. Aquatic organisms need the pH of their water body to be within a certain range for optimal growth and survival. Although each organism has an ideal pH, most aquatic organisms prefer pH of 6.5 – 8.0. Watershed LOCATION MAY JUNE JULY AUG. SEPT. OCT.

Alfred, Town Manager ;7 Town of South Kingstown i 180 High Street " ­ ­ -. ' Wakefield, Rhode Island 02880 ~~ --­ -—.___ J Dear Mr. Alfred: The Department of Environmental Management recently received a draft report summarizing water quality investigations in the Saugatucket River conducted by Dr. Raymond Wright of the University of Rhode Island's Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering. A copy of Dr. Wright's report is attached for your information. The document is presently in draft form and is being reviewed by DEM's Office of Water Resources staff. Dr. Wright's work was conducted to assess impairments of water quality along the river and its tributaries and to allow estimates of impacts on Point Judith Pond. Three water bodies in the Saugatucket watershed are included on the State's current list of impaired waters (also known as the 303(d) list): Mitchell Brook, Saugatucket River, and Saugatucket Pond. These water bodies, as you know, respectively flow through, form the eastern border, and are immediately downstream of the former landfill site. It is our concern that each of these three water body impairments is attributable to influences from the landfill. Chapter 10 of Dr. Wright's study associates the site with a significant increase in ammonia concentrations in the main stem of the Saugatucket River. The federal Clean Water Act requires that the cause and source of water quality impairment and actions to restore water quality be identified, in an analysis known as a Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL), for all water bodies listed on the state's 303(d) list.
