This research concludes with a discussion on the potential effects on river water quality due to dry weather spills, the impact of rainfall intensity and their potential to mobilize the microbial contamination and move towards a stormwater drain and be transported to a nearby water course. Overall, the objectives of this study were achieved and the transport of microbes can be estimated at different elapsed times depending on the relative humidity after a dry weather spill event, providing its impact on waterways. |
