|a This document synthesizes all known historical water quality records for sites in the Ruvu Basin
and is a presentation and analysis of new data collected during a water quality survey in
October, 2013.
Historically, bacterial pollution has been the primary pollutant of concern in the Ruvu Basin.
From 2006 through the last major sampling event in 2009, all surface water samples have
exhibited high fecal coliform levels ( >200 cfu/mL). The highest levels are consistently found at
Duthumi and Kikundi River. The high levels of fecal coliforms coupled with higher than average
levels of ammonia at the Duthumi site is a clear indication of human and/or animal waste
contamination in the river. During the most current survey in October, 2013, the Ngerengere
River has shown higher levels of bacterial contamination than it has shown in the past. |
