    Pelahatchie Creek by Stacey Knepple

    It was a beautiful day to be out on the water and many boaters and kayakers were in the area; the parking lot was full.

    Pelahatchie Creek by Stacey Knepple

    Dissolved oxygen test to be repeated; addition of starch indicator to fixed sample did not result in [blue] color change, so remaining steps not completed.

  • 19 November 2023

    Old Trace Park by Jennifer Sigrest

    Calm, still day. Water level low as compared to previous sampling times. 2 people were fishing at this sampling location just prior to sampling. The incubation temperature was discovered to be lower than the required threshold when reading the samples, so this data might not be accurate.
