With nearly 300,000 of us living, working, and playing in Kitsap, it's critical to keep waterways clean and healthy. That's where Kitsap Public Health's Water Pollution Identification and Correction (PIC) team plays an important role.


From Port Gamble to Burley our PIC program continuously monitors for fecal pollution in our county's surface waters. This helps prevent people from getting sick and protects our waterways and shellfish beds.


When areas with high bacterial levels are found, we work with residents and organizations to fix issues and prevent further pollution. When needed, we also publish health advisories to alert the public to potential health risks.


This work is summarized in our yearly report that shares program highlights and stream-by-stream monitoring results. Our interactive 2025 Water Quality Report is now available to view!

This year's report features:

  • Water Pollution Identification and Correction Program highlights

  • Stream sampling results and advisories

  • A review of lake advisories

  • Common sources of fecal pollution and pollution prevention tips

Our water quality monitoring work is made possible by our partners at Clean Water Kitsap, a multi-agency partnership that receives funding from county stormwater fees.


Clean Water Kitsap protects people, property and natural resources by reducing flooding and stormwater runoff, and preventing stormwater pollution.
