Measuring the Impacts of the South Bay Ocean Outfall 
at the US-Mexico Border

Water transparency measurements

HOME

Figure 1 shows the water transparency at the stations along the B-line on December 28 measured by our improvised Secchi-type device. The B/C3.5 station value was measured on December 24. All stations except B3 (the anomaly over the outfall) were within the range of the values for Secchi measurements made by the city of San Diego's monitoring program. (See Figure 2 for the location of the stations.)
