Water quality note
What overflow data can and cannot tell you
Storm overflow records are useful warnings, but they are not the same as direct water-quality measurements.
It does not measure bacteria, chemicals, turbidity, or whether a specific swim is safe at that moment.
Recent or active records should be treated as a warning flag, especially after rain or when the river is rising.
