Citizen Science – Waterwatch Volunteers
Do you live near or on Plane, Rocky Dam, Basin or Carmilla Creeks and would like to help collect water quality data to gain a better understanding of water quality in our catchment? We are seeking volunteer citizen scientists (no prior skill or knowledge required) to undertake monthly sampling at these creeks. Volunteers will be fully inducted and provided adequate training. This project is proudly supported by the Queensland Government – Queensland Citizen Science Grants.
