Blue Water Task Force
Lab at Pacific High School
The Port Orford Ocean Resource Team (POORT) and Surfrider Foundation's Blue Water Task Force are conducting monthly water quality testing this school year at marine and freshwater locations in the Port Orford area. We are testing our usual spots at Brush Creek, Hubbard Creek, Battle Rock, Port Beach, Garrison Lake Outfall.
The lab has been set up at Pacific High School where Curt Gault's Marine Biology class will be analyzing the samples for the presence of bacteria.
