Current status from this report
End not confirmed on Atlantic Ocean. Current rule period ends Nov 16, 2026, 11:00 PM EST. This is not a water-quality test.
Why this status: End not confirmed: DirtyWaterWatch rule for missing end times.

The notice names no water. DirtyWaterWatch links this report to Atlantic Ocean, FL. Match basis: the operator's listed receiving water; the report itself does not name the water.
3. Estimated downstream stretch
We estimate routes only on rivers before they become tidal. We do not estimate routes through tidal water or lakes.
