Purpose

This blog will serve as an area to post information about our findings, as well as data and photos as we complete our experiment. The current purpose of our project is to examine the effects of stormwater runoff into rivers (the one we will be focusing on is Mill Creek, which flows through Walla Walla, WA), and see what solutions Walla Walla has or should put into place to help improve the water quality due to point-source pollution. 



To begin, we will be conducting base testings of Mill Creek during desirable weather, to see the acidity of the creek through town on a normal day. 
Additionally, we will be posting photos of the creek at the different testing sites, as well as photos to capture the many ways in which Mill Creek is getting polluted, and the plants and animals which depend on the creek and may be negatively affected by the pollution.
