SOURCE INFORMATION

La Coalición WATERKEEPER Baja California Sur y sus socios monitorean la calidad del agua en las playas de Loreto, Bahía Magdalena, La Paz, Cabo Pulmo y La Ribera durante todo el año. Utilizamos un protocolo de muestreo y análisis del agua estandarizado en toda la región, basado en el estándar del gobierno mexicano utilizado para playas recreativas (Comisión Federal para la Protección de Riesgos Sanitarios (COFEPRIS).

Se toman y analizan muestras de agua una vez al mes y los resultados se publican en Swim Guide Mexico dentro de las 6 primeras horas de la obtención de resultados.

• VERDE: Se maca una playa en color VER cuando en los resultados de una muestra se presenta un valor bajo del máximo permisible, 200 NMP (número más probable de colonias de Enterococos por 10 ml de agua).

• ROJO: Se marca una playa en color ROJO cuando en los resultados de una muestra se presenta un valor por encima del máximo permisible, 20 NMP. En caso de presentarse un valor por encima del máximo permisible (20 NMP), el programa local de WKBC notifica a las autoridades correspondientes: Comisión Nacional del Agua (CNA) a través de la Comisión Federal para la Protección de Riesgos Sanitarios (COFEPRIS).

**Una playa se mantiene marcada en VERDE o ROJO por 2 horas después del resultado y se convierte a color GRIS hasta el siguente monitoreo.**

• GRIS: Se marca una playa en color GRIS cuando no hay resultados actualizados o no hay información disponible.
