Service Requirements:

1. Beach Water Quality Sampling at Hop Brook Lake:

a. Sampling & Monitoring: Beach is to be monitored weekly starting one week prior to the Memorial Day weekend and continuing through the week after Labor Day (approximately 17 weeks), with 3 additional monitoring events to be performed if samples do not meet State of CT standards for a total of up to 20 monitoring visits.

During each visit, two samples will be collected for E. coli, for a total of 40 water samples.

Samples shall be collected at fixed sampling stations, to provide consistency of data.

Samples should be collected at approximately 3 to 4 feet water depth. The 125ml bottle provided by the laboratory for surface water sampling must be used. Remove the cap from the sterile collection bottle, being careful not to contaminate either the inside of the cap or bottle. Grasp the bottle near its base and plunge it in a downward motion into the water to a depth of between 12 and 18 inches, always keeping the mouth of the container ahead of the hand so as not to contaminate the sample. In a sweeping motion invert the bottle to fill. Empty the bottle to approximately one inch from the top (if necessary) to provide air space for laboratory processing and carefully replace the cover. Store the samples on ice for transport to the laboratory.

b. Laboratory Analysis: The contractor will ensure the laboratory is using analytical methods approved by the State of CT.

i. The method of testing shall be as follows: E. coli organism, as determined by the Colilert -18 Method or any State of Connecticut/EPA approved method such as the membrane filter techniques, modified EPA Method 1603 (Modified mTEC Medium) and EPA Method 1103.1 (mTEC medium).

ii. A concentration of E. coli organisms less than or equal to 235 per 100 ml is generally considered satisfactory for a single sample from a swimming area.

iii. A single sample with a concentration of E. coli organisms greater than 235 per

100 ml is in excess of that which is normally considered acceptable for swimming. A re-sample will be required.

iv. To determine swimming water quality when using the E. coli organism as an indicator, a running geometric mean for each sampling station is to be used.

An acceptable running geometric mean for E. coli indicator organism density for swimming waters is less than or equal to 126. A running geometric mean is to be used when evaluating the long-term microbiological suitability of recreation water quality. The geometric mean can provide a better indication of water quality over time. This holds especially true when evaluating a proposed swimming area where seasonal or incidental variations may impact on single sample results. The contractor should keep all testing records and records of calculations for geometric means.

c. Reporting: Sample results for beach water testing shall be reported no later than noon on Fridays. The results will be submitted electronically to the Technical Point of Contact, the Project Manager, and the City of Waterbury Health Department. The contractor shall advise the CT Department of Public Health at (860)509-7296, when the beach and/or swimming area will be closed due to test results and also subsequently upon re-opening when the tests show acceptable levels.

Service Location

The services for this contract are located at the following location:

A. Hop Brook Lake Beach Area is located at 4 Straits Turnpike, Middlebury, CT.

The contractor shall furnish all labor, materials and equipment necessary to perform the following tasks:

1. Hop Brook Lake Beach Swimming Area Water Quality Testing
