Current status from this report

Caution on Lynn Haven Bayou: Within the caution period after the reported end. Current rule period ends Nov 5, 2026, 12:00 AM EST. This is not a water-quality test.

Why this status: Caution: caution rule for sanitary sewer overflows (SSO), 72 hours after the reported end.

Why we use this rule: Sanitary sewer discharges can contain concentrated sewage. We use a caution period of 72 hours after the reported end. Smaller reported volumes do not establish lower risk at a particular spot.
