This grant will provide for the sampling and analysis of water samples taken from stage discharge stations on the West Branch of the Rock River near Waupun, the East Branch of the Rock River near Mayville, the Rock River at Horicon, and the Rock River at Hustisford. The data collected, when combined with previously collected data, will be used to provide a better understanding of sediment and Phosphorus loads entering Horicon Marsh, leaving Horicon Marsh, entering Lake Sinissippi, and leaving Lake Sinissippi. This information is necessary to know what is causing problems that are being observed and how to return the Horicon Marsh and Lake Sinissippi to a healthy ecosystem. A full description of project scope and project deliverables is available in the grant application, which is a part of this agreement.
