pollution levels

The following report is based on a Multistrand Science Field Study conducted by grade twelve students attending Northside Christian College. Data was collected and recorded from four different designated sites on the North Pine River. Data referring to such things as temperature, turbidity, pH and dissolved oxygen levels was recorded. Also general information such as that of animal and plant species, visible pollution and the water quality were recorded at each of the four sites. …

…and plant life were seen to be thriving in the present environment. The testing which was performed showed elements and signs of a small amount of pollution, so therefore there is an indication the river is not totally or completely clean. So in conclusion, though the river is clean to a passible standard legally, there is still room for improvement at which time the river could be deemed an excellent, environmentally sound body of water.
