Water clarity was measured at seven locations in the Providence River and Seekonk River estuaries on June 11, 2025. In the five days prior to the survey, 0.85 inches of precipitation were recorded at TF Green. Secchi depth averaged 2.4 meters. The lowest clarity this week (2.1 meters) was measured at Phillipsdale Landing, while the greatest clarity (2.9 meters) was measured at India Point Park. There was no clear north-to-south gradient in water clarity among the sites this week. Overall, water clarity among most sites remained relatively consistent compared to previous measurements (data collected June 4, 2025). However, water quality at Point Street Bridge decreased (1.1 meters) and water quality at Bullock’s Reach decreased (1.3 meters), both compared to previous measurements (data collected June 4, 2025).
