Water Monitoring
Some sample definitions for those curious about the parameters tested: ANC: Acid Neutralization Capacity. This measures the ability of the water to buffer acid. The higher the better in most instances. ALUMINUM: Toxic to all living organisms. an acceptable level would be zero. pH and buffers are described somewhat in the acid rain section of this site. For more detailed information about the things tested for in water, please visit, http://www.leo.lehigh.edu/projects/hydroprobe/wqdef.html Below are the abbreviations for the different monitoring points. Each is a link to the data for that location as it becomes available.
