You must participate in both the virtual classroom and the lab event to be able to receive your re-certification.

The Chemical Monitoring workshop is designed to teach volunteers about basic stream water chemistry and how to conduct chemical tests using hand-held field equipment.  The basic set of tests that volunteers are asked to conduct includes dissolved oxygen, conductivity, pH, and temperature. Advanced tests may include alkalinity, phosphate, and nitrate-nitrogen.
