The County of Monterey Environmental Health Agency monitored eight locations on a weekly basis from April through October, from as far upcoast as the Monterey Beach Hotel at Roberts Lake in Seaside to a downcoast location of Carmel City Beach in Carmel by the Sea. The county monitored some of these locations on a monthly basis from November to March. For additional water quality information
visit the Monterey County
Environmental Health Agency website.
During the summer dry weather months, all monitoring locations in Monterey County received A grades (Figure 17 and 18). Stillwater Cove at the Beach and Tennis Club scored markedly better than it has in the past. As its name implies, Stillwater Cove generally has poor circulation and little tidal flushing, but this year, received its first A grade in 5 years.
With Monterey County only monitoring weekly from April through October, there was insufficient non-AB411 dry weather, and wet weather data for analysis.
