This $216,000 Project Grant award from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) under the Beach Monitoring and Notification Program Implementation Grants (CFDA 66.472) will fund the Ohio Department of Health's (ODH) beach monitoring and public notification program for the upcoming swimming season. The program will consist of bacteriological water quality monitoring at designated recreational beaches in Ohio, public notification of water quality exceedances, and an annual summary report. The objective is to reduce swimmer illness by providing the public with timely information to make informed decisions about which beaches to attend. ODH, as the state government entity, will be responsible for implementing this program consistent with national beach guidance. No sub-awards are included in this assistance agreement.
