Saugus
River Water Quality Monitoring
The
Saugus River Watershed Council conducts monthly water
quality sampling during several months each year at approximately
15 sites located throughout the watershed. Samples are
tested for bacteria, dissolved oxygen, conductivity, pH,
and temperature. Results are used to track improvements,
identify problem areas, and inform efforts to improve
water quality conditions. The Lynn Water and Sewer Commission
generously donates lab services to process bacteria samples.
