Water Quality Monitoring Program

The water is then sent to a lab for testing and the results are checked against previous tests for changed in key factors to determine the health of the river. The collections begin in the spring and are done throughout the year. If you wish to participate in this program, please send an email to “webmaster@blackstonriver.org”.
