The Habitat Map shows soil water salinity contours across the land masses. During this Hydrocoast period there was rainfall across the basin, ranging from 1 to 4 inches. Resultant winds were mostly from the southwest and west. Wind speeds ranged from 0 to 11.1 m/s (2 to 25 miles/hr). During this Hydrocoast period high fecal coliform counts were found at Bogue Falaya, Amite at Highway 16/42, Abita River, Cane Bayou and Bayou Bonfouca. The water quality map also shows the impaired water bodies for Primary Contact (swimming, immersion likely) and Secondary Contact (boating wading, immersion unlikely) in the basin as prepared by the Louisiana Department of Environmental Quality under the EPA 305(b)/303(d) guidelines. The map also shows an area of hypoxia in the Chandeleur Sound which was detected on June 23, 2014.
