One water test
Surfrider Foundation
Problem
CHAPTERS IDENTIFY THE HOT SPOTS Most coastal water pollution (84%) comes from urban runoff which enters the water via rivers, streams, and pipes. The obvious place to start a testing program is at rivermouths, lagoon openings and flowing storm drain pipes. Be sure you track the path of any pipe that you see entering the ocean.
The Gift
Our trained volunteers conduct water testings throughout all coastal states of the US. The materials to conduct these tests cost $5. Within their local Surfrider Foundation chapters they can use the knowledge and fight the sources of pollution, to benefit the health of our oceans, waves and beaches!
