To meet water standards, DO must be 5 mg/L or higher;less than 3 mg/L deprives aquatic life of oxygen and fish can die. Dissolved oxygen levels were also below the Michigan water quality standard of 5.0 mg/L at several additional sites. Since the spray-irrigation of fields has begun, two sites have shown immediate and serious degradation of water quality. Erin L. DiCaprioandLinda J. Harris The Produce Safety Rule (PSR) requires growers to initially establish a Microbial Water Quality Profile (MWQP) for each untreated agricultural water source used during growing activities of covered produce (other than sprouts) using a direct water application method and conduct annual surveys for that water source in subsequent years. Our normal monitoring for both stream studies and specific incident responses at other sites, which includes E. coli, dissolved oxygen, temperature, nitrates and nitrites, orthophosphate, and ammonia, continues.In the future, we plan to continue our targeted DNA analysis.
