World Water Festival Held at the Rio Salado Habitat Restoration Area

Participated in two local WWMD events. A WWMD event started by CH2M HILL a few years ago has now grown into a larger community festival. The World Water Festival is held at the Rio Salado Habitat Restoration Area, a CH2M HILL project site, and includes water quality monitoring, guided nature walks, and stations with information on rain harvesting, composting, and recycling, and magic shows. For the fifth year, CH2M HILL helped host a WWMD event at Steele Indian School Park with sixth graders from Osborn Elementary School took part in a day of water education. In addition to monitoring water quality in the park’s pond, students visited stations on groundwater flow, watershed flow, and turbidity and bio-assessment.
