South Shore Watershed Association Water Quality Monitoring Data

South Shore Watershed Association (SSWA) annually monitors main tributaries in each of its five constituent watersheds: DeSable River, Westmoreland River, Tryon River, Augustine Cove-Cape Traverse and Seven Mile Bay, to determine the health of our rivers and the effects that stream restoration techniques have on enhancing future river health. SSWA will also be continuing its partnership with Bedeque Bay Environmental Management Association (BBEMA) to track water quality parameters. Only by tracking the changes in our water conditions can SSWA accurately determine which of our stream restoration techniques will have a lasting effect on the watershed habitat.
