Notes
Chalk river, so usually alkaline, but these results are not normal for this location.
River was dry at this location last month, but there has been heavy rain off and on for some days so the water in the stream is probably mainly rainwater rather than spring water. Also there was a lot of water coming from a storm drain just above the location which would also be rainwater.
There was also a lot of mud coming through the storm drain, this made the water cloudy in parts.
