Question received :

I believe there is conflicting information on whether microbiology sampling will only be at one station OR at all seven starions. Can you clarify?

Response;

Weekly fecal coliforms and E. coli will be collected at the TRV-1 (Dairy Mart Bridge) site only

All other sampling schedules will also analyze for Fecal and E.coli (except TRV-7 which will test for enterococcus) and for norovirus and enterovirus. That would be during the quarterly water samples in the river, once per year wet weather flow at all locations, and any dry weather transboundary events collected.
