URBAN WATCH MONITORING PROGRAM
Come out!
Get Involved in the pollution solution!
Learn about sources of common urban pollutants, everyday impacts and what you can do to help!
In the Urban Watch Program teams of volunteers monitor water from select storm drain outfalls in Capitola, Monterey and Pacific Grove. Volunteers spend between 4-8 hours a month conducting monitoring in the field. Volunteers work with field kits and meters to analyze storm drain water for common pollutants such as detergents, chlorine, copper, orthophosphate and ammonia-nitrogen. Lab samples are collected monthly for bacteria and nutrients. No experience is necessary.
Program runs from June – October 2008
