Except for the <br />Neuse River at Smithfield, C. perfringens densities did <br />not change substantially as floodwaters receded. <br /> <br />These floodwater densities of E. coli and <br />C. perfringens are some of the first such data collected <br />for either indicator species in North Carolina. As <br />such, these data can be used as a baseline for future <br />results, <br /> <br />Two Months of Flooding in Eastern North Carolina, September-October 1999 <br /> <br />
