Unresolved: no end reported on Merrimack River: Unresolved: no end reported, until Nov 17, 2026, 7:23 AM EST unless a new report changes it.
Why this colour: Unresolved: no end reported: a discharge was reported and its end never was; shown hatched yellow until 30 days after it started. Rationale: From day 7 to day 30 the reach or water is shown hatched yellow 'unresolved: no end reported', listed under active discharges with that label. (source: rules.json unresolved) How long a water stays coloured, and why

A report is not a test of the water. See how statuses are worked out.
1. The reported outfall
Outfall reported by City of Manchester DPW Environmental Protection Division (NH0100447). Location: no coordinates in the record or the outfall registry.
2. Waters named in the notice
The notice names no water. We place it on Merrimack River, NH, Piscataquog River, NH. Inferred (for example from the discharger's receiving water); the source does not name the water.
3. Modeled downstream reach
No modeled reach for this record in this build.
Source: water outlines from OpenBoatLaunch and OpenStreetMap contributors (ODbL); outfalls from EPA ECHO and the state outfall layers; modeled reaches computed by DirtyWaterWatch from USGS NLDI, NHDPlus and the nearest USGS gauge (Jobson 1996); basemap OpenFreeMap and OpenMapTiles.
When: three different times
The time of the event, the time the source reported, published or updated it, and the time we fetched it are kept apart. Times are shown in New England time; the record keeps the original offsets.
