CHEARS CCRIC |
Water Quality Monitoring Workshop at Springhill Lake Community Center,
6101 Cherrywood Lane, near the Greenbelt Metro Station.
This weekend CCRIC and CHEARS are sponsoring an opportunity for neighbors to learn about water quality monitoring. The trainer is Maria Sgambati, MD. She will bring materials to demonstrate how citizens can collect reliable data on water quality. With enough committed volunteers, we can build baseline datasets to compare with stream conditions after local projects begin. We have several projects coming to Indian Creek; the largest being Konterra and Brickyard near Laurel, ICC mitigation sites and possibly a CSX rail yard in Beltsville. Let's build a reliable community monitoring program to fit our local needs and maintain credible information to explain any complaint if we see threats to Indian Creek.
