It was during this period that analyses revealed that salt components (ions) were more prevalent in Bloody Pond, Little Long Pond and Long Pond (decreasing in that order) than in our other 3 ponds. The levels observed seemed alarming at the time, but it will be seen later that these levels were much lower than those measured in 2020.

E-Coli results highlighted in 2002

Other E-Coli result from 1999 - 2003

The e-coli readings obtained from 1999, 2000 and 2001 were quite good. However, there were readings in 2002 and 2003 that were terribly dangerous. Most of these were recorded in road runoff, and all of them were obtained near a stream that runs adjacent to a swimming beach.
