Recorded Webinar: ‘How’s the Water in the Hudson?’

In this recorded webinar, Water Quality Program Manager Dan Shapley explains the findings of Riverkeeper’s report, “How’s the Water? 2015.”

This year’s report includes:

• new analysis of patterns of contamination in the Hudson River estuary that are relevant to the thousands of people who enjoy the river for swimming, tubing, fishing, boating and other recreation;

• the first-ever detailed reporting of results from samples gathered by community scientists in the Catskill, Esopus, Rondout and Sparkill Creeks; the Pocantico and Wallkill Rivers; and New York City water access points; and,

• a detailed Action Agenda to guide state and local decision-makers who share the goal of making our waters consistently safe for swimming.

The report, along with data gathered since the inception of the project up to and including samples gathered in 2015, can be found at riverkeeper.org/water-quality/testing/.
