We will discuss the importance of source water protection and the process that is involved in creating a source water protection plan. Delegates will gain knowledge on many aspects of source water including: watershed delineation, determining issues with source water, groundwater science, baseline data collection, and much more. Hands on training will be available with the equipment that is used to perform water and soil sampling. Equipment includes: Kemmerer sampler, secchi disk, dissolved oxygen/ conductivity meter, pH, turbidity, color alkalinity, soil auger, and possibly more if available.
