Geronimo Creek Watershed Discussion

   Towards the end of the day, we began to research more on the topic, in order to be able to bring up intelligent question to Mrs. Jimenez tomorrow as well as simply obtaining more information on the subject. We broke into to out various groups, mine was the Alligators, in order the research and collaborate what we were wanting to find and what we already knew about the topic. We found the the medical limit for E. Coli bacteria in various water sources is 126 organisms per 100 milliliters, and the medical limit for Nitrate-Nitrogen was 1.95 mg/L. Also that on a reading of the Geronimo Creek on April 19, 2010 there was a dramatic spike in the E. Coli count reaching anywhere from 4400 organisms per 100mL to 1000 organisms per 100mL, which is extraordinarily high. We found some great questions for her tomorrow and are very excited!
