Kelly Creak Stream Monitoring at Nature at the Confluence

Join Welty at the Nature of the Confluence on August  11th for a second round of data collection at Kelly Creek, a stream monitoring project fund by an Illinois American Water grant. On August 11th, visit us at the Nature of the Confluence to discover the function and importance of watersheds and how runoff water enters streams.

At 10:00 AM at Kelly Creek, we will take samples to compare against those taken on June 16, 2018.  We will observe and record the quality of water: oxygen, phosphate, nitrate, ph, chloroform, and turbidity.

All ages can take part in some aspect of this study. (Direct Kelly Creek access may be limited to Welty staff.
