Spa and Back Creek Data

Spa Creek Conservancy (SCC) and Back Creek Links.

Eleven sites on Spa Creek and five sites on Back Creek are being monitored in 2024.  The data are updated weekly in the map (shown at left and here). 

Testing is being sponsored by Spa Creek Conservancy, The Denker Foundation, Eastport Yacht Club, Eastport a Rockin, and LiveWater. Levels under 104 cfu/100 ml are considered safe for swimming. Any site over the threshold for safe swimming will be shown with a RED icon. The map legend on the left gives the site symbols and the present week count.  If you click on an icon, it will show all of the data for this season.  Physical parameters, clarity, temperature etc are at
