๐Ÿ’ง๐ŸŸ Water Quality Wednesday!

Did you know that everyday pollutants like oil, chemicals, and litter can end up in our local creeks? ๐ŸŒŠ

These pollutants can harm aquatic life, reduce water quality, and damage ecosystems. Small actions, like properly disposing of waste and keeping storm drains clear of pollutants, can make a big difference! ๐ŸŒฑ

Letโ€™s work together to keep our waterways clean and healthy! ๐Ÿ’™

๐Ÿ’ง๐ŸŸ Water Quality Wednesday: What is Turbidity?

Ever noticed creek water looking cloudy after heavy rainfall? ๐ŸŒง๏ธ Thatโ€™s turbidity!

Turbidity occurs when tiny particles like sediment and dirt become suspended in water. While some is natural, excessive turbidity can reduce water quality and make it harder for salmon and other aquatic life to thrive! ๐ŸŒฟ

Monitoring turbidity helps us better understand and protect our local creeks! ๐Ÿ’™

Itโ€™s WQW! ๐ŸŒŠ๐Ÿ”ฌ

Today, the SHaRP team is checking turbidity, which measures how much suspended sediment is in the water. High turbidity can reduce visibility, affect fish feeding, and impact healthy salmon habitat.

๐ŸŸ SHaRP does Salmon Tracks!

Those yellow fish beside storm drains are more than just a symbol. Theyโ€™re a reminder that water flowing into our storm drains can eventually reach local creeks and streams where salmon and other aquatic life live.

Keeping pollutants, soaps, chemicals, and litter out of storm drains helps protect the habitat waiting on the other side. ๐Ÿ’ง๐ŸŒฟ

This Water Quality Wednesday, weโ€™re recognizing the generations of Indigenous stewardship that have cared for and protected the lands and waters around us.

At Bon Accord Creek, weโ€™re reminded that healthy waterways depend on continued care, respect, and connection to these ecosystems.

On the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation, we encourage everyone to reflect, learn, and continue caring for the waters we all share. ๐Ÿงก

๐ŸŒฟ Why donโ€™t we just leave nature alone?

Because in many urban streams, human activity has already changed it.

Culverts can block fish passage, pollution can enter waterways, and invasive plants can impact native habitat.

At SHaRP, our goal isnโ€™t to control nature. Itโ€™s to help repair past impacts and give salmon habitat a better chance to recover. ๐ŸŸ๐ŸŒŠ
