Mr. Stack's three Environmental Science classes at Seneca High School got off to a terrific start this year with some macroinvertebrate sampling on September 14. Once they get a feel for the biological indicators at their site, Seneca students will explore and analyze the chemical status of their stream, as well as physical aspects. Mill Run is pretty unique because it runs underneath the city of Meadville and is one of the more urbanized streams studied in the French Creek Watershed. Their field site is also unique right next to City Hall and the police department. Calling all cops, we have high nitrate levels at Mill Run near Rt.
All available units report.
Over and out. Parker Middle School students will be sampling a stream full of sewage, at least that is what the students always suggest. Pavkov Stream is one of 3 streams sampled by Mr. Wise s 8th grade Earth Science classes. It is also the stream that the school s sewage treatment plant empties into. Their first sampling event was September 14.
