Water Quality Wednesday

#WaterQualityWednesday is back!! Our dedicated water quality monitors are out in the watershed this summer protecting your right to clean water! Our volunteers collect valuable data for early detection of issues, determining changes over time and supplementing monitoring by government agencies. For their most recent water quality report, MDEQ was only able to assess 12% of MS rivers and streams and conducted no weekly bacteria testing on inland rivers and lakes. Pearl Riverkeeper volunteers are helping to fill the gap. Shout out to our members and Patagonia for financially supporting this crucial work. View our WATER TESTING RESULTS.
