Wanted to let people know and mark their calendars for 2007 Watershed Watch sample dates. Big Sandy Watershed Watch hasn’t announced their dates, that will be decided in April, but the following are the dates for Kentucky River (KRWW) and Upper Cumberland (UCWW). Remember your training allows you to cross basin lines so consider sampling in more than one basin…
