VolunteerWhat do Volunteers Do?
Citizen volunteers attend one or more AWW workshops to become certified monitors of water quality. In the workshops, participants learn simple techniques for measuring various chemical, physical and biological characteristics of water, such as dissolved oxygen (DO) and bacterial concentrations. All monitors attend refresher courses to maintain proper sampling techniques and replenish their test kits with fresh chemical reagents.
The volunteer monitors help the AWW program keep accurate water quality data, and present the information to watershed residents, regulatory agencies, policy makers and other interested citizens. The citizen data set has become one of the most important sources of water quality information for Wolf Bay. Read more...
