This stream was Moshannon Creek Watershed Coalition’s 1st Watershed Assessment. We had four teams of volunteers that gathered pH, conductivity, temperature, and rate of flow data, as well as water samples monthly. Each team had approximately ten sites to sample. There were a total of 40 sites where samples were collected monthly and 12 sites where samples were collected quarterly.
