In the morning, WEC staff and Friends of the Wissahickon staff and volunteers will be taking water samples at 20 points along the Wissahickon Creek and its tributaries. Then we will bring back the samples and a few volunteers and staff will perform two test that indicate the levels of salt in the Creek.
