buzzards bay water quality monitoring signs

 

Back to publications

In 2004, we created 127 signs which display Buzzards Bay water quality data collected through our Baywatchers Water Quality Monitoring Program.

The fiberglass signs were produced through a grant from the Massachusetts Environmental Trust and posted at boat ramps, beaches, and bridges throughout the Bay. Each sign is harbor-specific and details the health of the local waterway in yearly increments from 1992 to 2003.

Download signs for a specific harbor below. All signs in PDF format.
