HRWC trained an elite team of volunteers to measure stream flow on a lovely day in November. HRWC staff and eight volunteer trainers led 14 people through the steps of precise flow measurements in preparation for a study to commence with the early large storms next Spring.
This is the first step in measuring the change in runoff since numerous rain gardens and rain barrels were installed in the Millers Creek Watershed in the past 2 years. The gardens and barrels will hold the stormwater and help to reduce surging flows.
