Abstract

The article presents the results of a study of the sanitary and microbiological condition of three ponds in Terletskiy Park. Microbiological studies were carried out to determine the presence of sanitary indicative microorganisms. Coliforms, Salmonella spp. and Clostridium spp. were detected. The obtained data indicate fecal contamination of reservoirs. According to the categories of the degree of bacterial contamination, these ponds, due to the obtained results, belong to the second category – polluted reservoirs.
