Bacterial water quality is a concerning problem, as contaminated water leads to various forms of illness and potentially more serious and chronic long term problems in communities. We are currently testing both drinking water and recreational areas for bacterial contamination. We use the Colilert testing methodology that correlates fecal coliform and E. coli bacteria with levels of contamination. If you have concerns with your water quality, contact the Center.
