On August 21st, twenty smiling Enbridge Gas Distribution employees came out to
help Mary Finch and the TUC summer staff with some local stream assessment and
monitoring at Duffins Creek. The Enbridge employees got the chance to use their newly
acquired knowledge from the TUC Lunch and Learns on assessment and
rehabilitation of streams. Such monitoring is essential for planning and
determining successful stream rehabilitation projects.
Over the course of 3
hours the team finished 14 habitat transects assessing
the characteristics of the stream while getting some fun-filled bug ID lessons.
Many thanks to the energetic and enthusiastic volunteers. A fun day was had by
all!
