We are looking for in-lake and tributary water quality monitors in Calumet, Fond du Lac, and Winnebago Counties. Sampling occurs from May to October.
The Winnebago Waterways Water Quality Monitoring Program (WQMP) provides volunteer-based stream and lake water quality monitoring at priority locations within the Winnebago Waterways Recovery Area.
In-Lake Water Quality Monitoring
Water quality volunteers collect valuable data that are used by our organization and other agencies working to improve and protect water quality and habitat. The data allow us to assess:
- The health of the lakes
- The effectiveness of watershed recovery efforts such as conservation farming practices
Stream Monitoring
Water quality volunteers collect valuable data that are used by our organization and other agencies working to improve and protect water quality and habitat. The data allow us to assess:
- The health of streams.
- The effectiveness of watershed recovery efforts such as conservation farming practices.
- The impacts of streams on downstream bodies of water
