Craney Island Environmental Monitoring
Water Quality• Contractors are required to inspect effluent water every 4-
hours, or 6-times per day.
• Water quality testing for Total Suspended Solids (TSS) is required 2-times per day.
• Additional testing is required if effluent water appears cloudy.

Craney IslandEnvironmental Monitoring
Water Quality Cont’d:• If effluent water at a spillway appears cloudy, contractors are required
to stop the discharge at the spillway by raising weir boards.
• Contractors are required to document each inspection and testing event.
• Monitoring allows for real-time measurements and allows dredging contractors to take immediate action to modify their operations.
