SRWW is primarily a
“synoptic” program that samples streams across the Salt River Basin three
times a year. Each time the volunteers measure pH, dissolved oxygen,
temperature, and conductivity and record information about recent rainfall
and stream flow. Once a year the volunteers assess biological diversity and
habitat quality and record information about the physical condition of the
stream. The parameters tested by our
partner laboratories in samples collected at the three synoptic sampling
events are: Spring (agricultural treatments): Herbicides and Pesticides Summer (recreation season): Bacteria (fecal coliform and/or e. coli) Fall (Low Flow):
nutrients, turbidity, etc Information about SRWW’s
volunteers and the locations of their sampling sites is maintained in
databases managed by the Water Watch program of the Kentucky Division of
Water. Information that volunteers
collect at sampling sites are maintained by the Water Watch program as
documents. Laboratory reports on samples collected during the synoptic events
are MS Excel files maintained by SRWW. The files on laboratory results available
on this page are DRAFT; they have not been analyzed for quality assurance purposes. 1998-2001 Synoptic Sampling
