2023 Sampling

Sampling occurs on the 2nd Saturday of each month from March through November. All samplers must attend a training in order for our data to be accepted by the Ohio EPA. 

​

New Sites for 2023? We are currently looking at our sampling sites to see if we need to add a few more locations.
