The Escambia County Surface Water Quality Public Data Portal is a user-friendly way to view surface water quality data collected by the Natural Resources Management Department from over 50 local unique monitoring stations. 

Parameters currently available for viewing include fecal indicator bacteria (Enterococci and E. coli) and field parameters (temperature, pH, dissolved oxygen, dissolved oxygen saturation, specific conductance, salinity, and turbidity).

Data availability varies by station. Many stations have data starting in 2016.

Data will be updated monthly. New data will be posted around the middle of each month.

Escambia County is a Watershed Information Network data provider. The complete county surface water quality dataset is available on the Florida Department of Environmental Protection website at  https://floridadep.gov/dear/watershed-services-program/content/winstoret.
