Water was fairly clear, saw several fish for the first time since beginning tests at this site.
Other coliform were abundant and too blurry to count accurately so I counted as best as I could, but E.coli was clear.
Water was lower and clearer than last few weeks, but still with a film on top.
This was my first test.
moderate flow for this small tributary based on past testing and observations, muddy.
Creek virtually stagnant, hardly any flow, hot and dry without any rain last 2 weeks.
virtually no flow, stagnant, scummy on surface.
virtually no flow in creek due to backwater flooding from Pearl River downstream
