Monitoring was carried out on estuaries, creeks, and diverse water bodies that feed into Manila Bay. The aim was to assess the pollution discharged by these outfalls into the bay.
To assess the contamination of pathogens at bathing beaches within the Manila Bay Region, 19 stations were monitored for total and fecal coliform counts.
River systems in the Manila Bay Region (4a, 3, NCR) that discharge into Manila Bay were carefully monitored to assess their compliance with water quality criteria.
Throughout Manila Bay, nine stations were monitored to measure dissolved oxygen (DO), pH levels, salinity, temperature, conductivity, and total suspended solids.
