NATURE Lab Workshop with Fran Martino: Citizen Science Training- Stream Sampling in Rensselaer County
April 1, 2017 @ 2:00 pm – 4:00 pm EDT
Rensselaer Land Trust’s Stream Team needs help to find out if the streams of Rensselaer County are safe. This project will recruit and train citizen scientists to collect water samples from 18 sites along 5 tributaries of the Hudson River to check enterococcus levels. Volunteer time commitment is approximately 2 hours per month during May through October.
This project is made possible by New York’s Environmental Protection Fund and the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation’s Hudson River Estuary Program. Program partners include River Haggie Outdoors; Watershed Assessment Associates; United States Geological Survey; Riverkeeper; and Capital District Regional Planning Commission.
We are committed to lowering the barriers to access for events at The Sanctuary for Independent Media. For people who are hard of hearing or deaf, blind or low-vision, or whose physical limitations can interfere with a satisfying experience, let us know two weeks in advance so we can make appropriate arrangements.
