Conclusions
• In Conclusion:– More people in an area = larger effect on watershed– More houses in an area = larger effect on watershed– Our local watershed (Musselman/Mill Creek) is
healthy by our data.– As more people move in and more houses are built, it
is our responsibility to make sure that proper procedures are being followed to ensure the health of our streams.
