Interested in the health of your local watershed? Want to find a great outdoor family activity? Join our Water Monitoring Warriors to test Fairfield's Mill and Rooster Rivers each month. We will provide you with the equipment and training to test the water, document the results and track the river's health over time. You take the training and then sign up to test as often as you are able.

Check out the EPA website that provides general reference about the health of our local waterways. Water quality is monitored for physical, chemical and biological factors as they relate to swimming, aquatic life, safety of eating the fish and drinking the water. The monitoring results are assessed against state water quality standards approved by EPA.
