Weekly Water Monitoring

The SJBEP started a new temporary weekly monitoring three weeks after hurricane Maria to test the water quality on different water bodies for fecal bacteria after Hurricane Maria. The monitoring activities were conducted on several points in beaches and coastal areas, including Vacía Talega, Pine Grove, Ocean Park, Laguna del Condado, Calle Nairn, Calle Serra y Calle Cervantes. Water quality results are being published every week and spread through social and print media, as can be seen in articles published by Metro Puerto Rico and Sin Comillas.
