New volunteers welcome...

The Pine River Watershed Group, a member of VCSA, has been testing the waters of Vallecito and its tributaries for over 20 years. This all-volunteer group meets monthly as weather and ice conditions permit to conduct water quality tests. The water samples are sent to professional labs for analysis, and those results are kept as records. For example, after the fire in 2002, some significant variations in water quality occurred, which took several years to normalize. The group monitors the water quality but takes no steps to treat or amend it.

New volunteers to the group are welcome. If you are interested and want to discuss participating, please call Jim Martin (970-799-0750) or email at jmartin8310@earthlink.net
