concentrations did not exceed the corresponding federal primary contact guideline. 

 The geometric means for both indicators were within the primary contact guidelines 

 at all other stations.

3. USEPAdata 



Table 8 presents the USEPA morutoring program data from stations extending 

 from Sandy Hook through Cape May County. The USEPA data shows substantially 

 lower geometric means for both EC and FC along the entire length of the coast. As 

 noted in 1 above, the lower geometric means are attributable to the greater distance 

 of the USEPA monitoring stations from the onshore sources of contamination.
