Source Information
Midcoast Conservancy monitors Damariscotta Lake from Memorial Day to Labor Day for fecal bacteria in order to provide risk assessment information for swimmers during the summer season. Sites are listed as failing to meet water quality standards if they surpass the U.S. EPA’s Beach Action Value (BAV) for freshwater E.Coli of 190 Colony Forming Units (CFUs) / 100 mL. A site failing to meet standards indicates a higher risk of illness for swimmers. Please keep in mind that E.Coli levels can change rapidly and are subject to increase after rain events. Samples are taken on Thursdays and results are available 24 hours later. On Fridays results will be posted on the Damariscotta Lake Watch Facebook/Instagram as well as Swim Guide. Please contact the Midcoast Conservancy Damariscotta Lake Watershed Manager at patricia@midcoastconservancy.org if you have any questions.
