Health of the River

By: Zach, Bailey, and

Andrew

Ph level We did three test and got 11, 8, and 9. water with a higher ph level than 7 is considered

basic. If it’s higher than 9.5 it may not be able to have animal or plant life.

TurbidityYou can see the bottom because

it is shallow.

Total SolidsTotal solids affects the

clarity and quality of the water. A High level will make it dirty and not clear and we got a 11 mg/liter which is high and the water is dirty.

NitratesNitrates are needed by

animals and plants in the river to build protein.

We got a 4.84 mg/liter and that is normal.

With all the test we did we found that

there are some good things and some bad but the overall health of the river is pretty

normal.
