THE Bureau of Environmental and Coastal Quality analyzes water samples collected from Saipan’s recreational western beaches and storm drainages every week as part of a regularly scheduled sampling program. None of the samples collected from Saipan’s west beaches contained excessive concentration of fecal indicator bacteria nor did they exceed CNMI marine water quality standards. Therefore, BECQ assigns all of the sampled beach sites a green flag. Enjoy our waters!
BECQ analyzes samples of marine recreational and storm drainage water from 38 locations on the west side of Saipan Island this week. Marine Water Quality Reports are also provided at www.deq.gov.mp/beach-advisories.html/.
BECQ welcomes all inquiries as to the quality of the beach water. The public is encouraged to contact (670) 664-8500 with any questions concerning this matter.
