Current status from this report

Discharge or advisory reported not linked to a mapped water: Official advisory in effect. Current rule period ends Nov 18, 2026, 12:00 PM EST. This is not a water-quality test.

Why this status: Discharge or advisory reported: official advisory.

Why we use this rule: An official advisory is listed. We show it while the authority keeps it in place; an old or missing update does not mean the advisory was lifted.

How long each status lasts, and why

A report is not a test of the water. See how we assign statuses.
