Reedy Creek Coalition is looking for a few more volunteers to join our water quality monitoring team. Sample collection occurs once a month and takes about two hours; on the job training is provided. If you are interested in helping or if you have questions please contact us at reedycreekcoalition@gmail.com .
Our monitoring activities can make a difference right here in our own neighborhood. Back in 2012 during our travels along the stream we found what appeared to be a potential hot spot for E. coli; our sample collection confirmed these suspicions. We contacted Richmond’s Department of Public Utilities who investigated, found and repaired a sewer leak. Click here for that story.
This is Citizen Science at its best! Please join us.
