DRAFT <br />where the fecal streptococci die off more rapidly than the fecal coliforms. High fecal coliform <br />concentrations at Lake Orono City Beach may be due to a high goose population in and around <br />the beach, or it may be related to precipitation events flushing fecal coliforms into the Elk River <br />from an upstream source. Additional monitoring is required to better evaluate the source of the <br />fecal coliform contamination. <br /> <br />N:\0598\01 kELKR1VER.P~T-rlb 16 <br /> <br /> <br />
