February Results

Hi Everyone,

Results are in and everything is looking pretty good! Except for the Coliform levels at the Nooksack River Delta everything was low. High Coliform results don't necessarily indicate a problem because Coliform is used as in indicator bacteria. Indicator bacteria are certain species of bacteria that are used to detect contaminated water. Their presence usually indicates the presence of other bacteria; indicator bacteria are not themselves dangerous to the health but are used to indicate the presence of more harmful bacteria.  See full results here: http://surfrider.org/whatwedo3c.asp and select Northwest Straits Chapter.

Also, be sure to check out the Let it Snow Party on March 10th at Boundary Bay Brewery at 10 PM. One of Bellingham's awesome local bands, Barefoot Brothers, will be playing! No cover at the door with a lot of great items being raffled off. I hope to see everyone there to support the Snowrider Project of the Surfrider Foundation.
