Turbidity Standards
 

Hello. I am writing as a citizen water monitor in Rockbridge County through the Alliance for the Chesapeake Bay.  As part of my monitoring each month I am charged with measuring turbidity with a turbidity tube.  A turbidity standard established by the state of Virginia would greatly support our efforts to protect our waters and allow for guidelines for where and when to initiate restorative measures. Thank you.
