This project included monitoring of 21 sites on 15 waterbodies in the Thornapple watershed. These data will be used to identify potentially critical areas in the Thornapple River Watershed and determine locations where remedial actions will have the most beneficial effects. In addition, the project was intended to increase public awareness and involvement in watershed and water quality issues and establish a trained and committed network of volunteers to conduct an annual monitoring program beyond the scope of the proposed project.
