Kentucky River Watershed Watch Database
Beginning in 1998, Kentucky River Watershed Watch (KRWW) volunteers began sampling waterbodies throughout the Kentucky River Basin. Sampling events occur throughout the spring, summer and fall and are typically conducted to test for herbicides and pesticides; pathogens; chemicals and nutrients; and metals. If high readings are found during the pathogen testing event, sites are normally sampled a second time during the summer. The database contains data results collected by KRWW samplers since 1999.
