We have reached capacity for our 2024 Virtual Orientation. Please contact Kelly McCabe at kmccabe@hrwc.org  if you are interested in participating in the 2024 field season and would like to be added to our waitlist. 

Help us monitor our region’s waters!

Enjoy being outdoors while measuring the quality of local rivers and creeks! Learn how to collect water samples, measure stream flow, and record water chemistry measurements. No prior experience needed. Volunteers are expected to commit to at least 4 sampling trips during the growing season (April through September) to designated monitoring sites in Washtenaw, Wayne, and Livingston counties. During each sampling trip, volunteers spend 2-4 hours in the field on average.

New participants must attend a virtual program orientation on Saturday, March 23, 2024 at 1:00pm.  If you are unable to attend the virtual orientation but are still interested in participating in the program, please contact Kelly McCabe at kmccabe@hrwc.org. If you have previously participated in the Chemistry and Flow Monitoring Program in 2023, you are not required to attend an orientation, but must register for the program as a returning volunteer.
