Community Science Institute Workshop

 Water monitoring training workshop with Grascen Shidemantle, executive director of the Community Science Institute (“CSI”).

From the CSI website:

“In 2025 and 2026, CSI will partner with the Al Hazzard Chapter of Trout Unlimited to provide valuable water quality data on the headwaters of Owego Creek. Through this partnership, we aim to collect valuable water quality data from the headwaters of Owego Creek (in the upper tributaries located in Tompkins and Tioga Counties) in a very similar manner to our former Red Flag monitoring program. The goal of this project is to identify critical trout spawning habitat in tributaries of the Owego Creek system so that native, wild trout can be reintroduced in these areas.
