The Division of Environmental Quality has analyzed water samples collected from Rota’s recreational beaches and storm water drainages this week and none of the samples contained excessive concentration of fecal indicator bacteria nor did they exceed the CNMI Marine Water Quality Standards. Therefore, DEQ assigns all of the sampled sites a green flag. Enjoy our waters.
DEQ analyzed samples of marine recreational and storm drainage water from 12 locations on the island of Rota this week as part of regularly scheduled sampling. DEQ welcomes all inquiries as to the quality of the beach water. The public is encouraged to contact DEQ at 664-8500 with any questions concerning this matter. (DEQ)
