Based on my observations I hypothesized that both Herbert Run and the Commons stream would have a high level of nitrate, conductivity, and turbidity. I hypothesized this because of traffic, liter, and the waste and pollution in both streams. For the Commons Stream, the Conductivity was 1086µS/cm. The turbidity was 0 FAU. Last, the Nitrate level for Commons was 0.08 ppm.
The case of Richard New and Lake Cumberland Funeral Home v. Commonwealth of Kentucky, Kentucky Board of Embalmers; Commonwealth of Kentucky, Funeral Director is an appeal and cross-appeal of a previous case heard by Franklin Circuit Court. The case was tried in the Commonwealth of Kentucky Court of Appeals. It stems from sanctions by the Kentucky Board of Embalmers (the Board) against Richard New (New) and Lake Cumberland Funeral Home (Lake Cumberland) for allowing unlicensed employees to perform embalming services including signing death certificates. The previous hearing by the Franklin Court found that the Board could sanction New and Lake Cumberland for allowing unlicensed employees to perform embalming services and could assign fines related
We found a little number of Phosphates and Nitrates in the water. That is healthy because these two chemicals are in fertilizers and detergents, they can harm the creek and all the creatures living in the creek. They get into the water through the eutrophication process. Bacteria eat phosphates and nitrates so that means there is a little number of bacteria in this creek. The dissolved oxygen level of the creek is high which is healthy.
Ben Hall 's Creek is situated close to the 'Ben Hall Gap National Park ', a distance of 90 miles north of Maitland, the closest accessible township was Scone, (Ben Hall 's old squattage is accessible today via the Scone/Nundle Rd.) Ben Hall 's Creek flowed into the Barnard River, known as a very wild and inhospitable place with extreme cold during the winter and was often covered in
On February 26, 1972 the Buffalo creek community was destroyed by a terrible flood. The flood caused many tears, pain and death. In the blink of an eye, people’s lives completely changed; lives were lost, houses were gone and families were destroyed. Buffalo Creek is one of the mountain hollows in West Virginia on the edge of the Appalachians, near the Guyandotte River. The land used to grow warm green grass, but overtime the land became a dark place with debris from mine operation spills.
I choose the Crystal River State Archaeological State Park in Crystal River , Florida. It is more commonly know as the Indian Burial Mounds. The park itself is in a beautiful location , overlooking the Crystal River on one side and grassy plains on the other side. There is recreational activities in the park as well as the museum. Some of the activities are salt and freshwater fishing , picnicking , bird watching and nature walks.
The author in the article about Florida 's Okefenokee Swamp, explains the primitive swamp and wildlife in southeastern Georgia and northern Florida. The author describes the place such as how it includes low, sandy ridges, wet grassy savannas, and islands. The writer supports the article by explaining the swamp being bounded on the east sandy Trail Ridge, which prevents direct drainage into the Atlantic. The author the describes the plants such as the exotic flowers, lilies and rare orchids. The article also explains the mammals which live among the swamp.
With residents moving to the new town site in Craig County, many where in need of purchasing land. Ealum and Minnie Bell (Lynch) Gregory sold approximately forty acres of their Delaware land to residents. The purchase of the land was used to establish homes and begin building businesses. With the up and coming businesses at the new town site residents established “New Ketchum”. However, when the Pensacola Dam was completed in March of 1940 the water way of the Grand River began filling
The Scheme collects and stores the water that would normally flow east to the coast and diverts it through trans-mountain tunnels and power stations. The water is then released into the Murray and Murrumbidgee Rivers for irrigation. Seventy per cent of all the workers were migrants. They came to Australia to work on the project, attracted by the relatively high wages.
The Jordan River Commission initiated the Cottonwood Pond revitalization project in 2015. In continuing their efforts to restore, develop, and promote the importance of the Jordan River, the Cottonwood pond was targeted because of its serious need of revitalization and repair. It is also an opportunity to create and promote and new recreational area along the river corridor promoting economic development. Although it has been an ongoing project for a few years’ stakeholders, sponsors, and the community look forward to the ribbon cutting of the park this spring. The Cottonwood Pond revitalization project was implemented to transform the Cottonwood pond from the rumored area of dumping dead bodies, to a resource of beauty and recreation for the community.
In the 1960’s there were segregated water fountains. One water fountain was labeled Whites and the other water fountain was labeled Colored. The water fountain that had to be used by colored people, looked like subpar urinal. The water fountains that white people used looked luxurious and were much bigger. The water that was used for the fountains came from the same valve, so there was no real reason other than racism and discrimination as to why each race was forced to use separate water fountains.
Topographic Factors The elevation of Delta Natural Reserve is 5m and SWMA is 3m (Vancouver International Airport). The elevation of Watershed park on the other hand is 64m. As the elevation increases, there are fewer species and less dense coverage of the area because of the colder conditions, however, this is not a key factor in the difference in vegetation as the areas are within a 5 minutes drive from each other. Delta Nature Reserve and SWMA were flatter in comparison to Watershed Park, as this park was located at a definite angle. Steeper slopes generally have thinner soils, less water content and are less acidic.
Gilded age Gilded age coastline has been losing its wetlands at a rate of 16.57 square miles a year during the past 25 years, equal to the loss of a football field of coast every hour. This loss of wetlands is due to pollution, deforestation, and erosion. The loss has caused has caused loss of biodiversity. Louisiana has lost 1900 years ago of land because of pollution from landfills, factory waste, and erosion.
II. History The Littleton/Englewood Wastewater Treatment Plant (L/E WWTP) has been operating since April of 1977; the third largest publicly owned treatment works (POTW) in Colorado. In 1972 the City of Englewood and the City of Littleton had two separate, smaller facilities that were in need of improvement to meet the new minimum of 85% treatment efficiency removal
One of the reasons (a quite good one) why they have earned an A on this topic is because they have created an aqueduct system. The aqueduct system is a waterway that flows the water easier, faster, and cleaner. After they built the waterway, everybody stopped getting sick as often because they were drinking cleaner water. As you can see, this was a very move. Good Job!
