Data collection infoResidents who live near creek gauge sites are employed to read gauges, take temperature, record weather observations and collect samples. Testing of water samples for turbidity, suspended sediment and conductivity is done at Passmore Laboratory ltd. A trained person from the laboratory collects coliform, low level metals and phosphorus samples. Metals and phosphorus samples are sent to ASL Analytical Laboratory ltd. in Vancouver. The physical tests - suspended sediment, turbidity and conductivity as well as coliform and fecal coliform tests are done locally at Passmore Laboratory ltd. in the Slocan Valley. Benthic invertebrate samples were collected by Local Residents. Analyses for benthics organisms was done locally at Aquatic Resources Ltd. in Nelson. Their report is submitted under separate cover. The Slocan Valley Water Monitoring program was established in 1996 with funding from Forest Renewal B.C and in partnership with the Ministry of Environment. Funds are directed through Slocan Forest Products to the Winlaw Watershed Committee that sponsors the program.
