Stream Assessment Training – Free and In-person

This stream assessment training program is presented in partnership with the Summit Free Public Library.

Interested in the health of your local stream? Concerned about clean water? Perhaps you’ve even considered becoming a stream monitoring volunteer. If any this makes you raise an eyebrow, this free training session is for you! An indoor classroom session, led by Sandra LaVigne, GSWA Director of Water Quality Programs, teaches you how to conduct visual and biological stream assessments, identify macroinvertebrates, and recognize environmental factors that could impact stream health. An outdoor session lets you practice your new-found skills at a local stream site. By afternoon you’re fully trained in visual and biological stream assessment!

Tools and supplies provided. It gets a little messy so wear your boots and bring clean shoes to change into afterward. Preferred volunteers are 15 or older.
