Notes
We sampled at the usual location; the creek’s flow was low and slow, like it was back in June. We measured all required parameters without issue. This time, we had the opportunity to show 3 people (a mother with 2 young children) how the testing works. One of the kids even got hands-on experience taking the water sample with us! When we finished testing, we removed batteries from the conductivity meter and put them in the waterproof phone case within the kit.
