The results in the below charts are based on the Vermont Health Departments safe swimming guidelines.    The Health Department states that a count of over 77 counts of E. Coli per 100 mL of water is not suitable for swimming.  The data shown is the quantity of E. Coli found in the water sample taken.  Samples that tested over 77 counts of E. Coli per 100 mL were reported to the respected town health officers for follow-up.

A dash means that no test was taking in that location for that particular year.
