Project: Water Quality of the Columbia River

Contact Name: Brian Lee (lee.b@mail.wsd.wednet.edu)

School: Wenatchee High School

Date Completed: Fall 2008

Details: Reading through a powerpoint slide show they had created, 5 students presented information on the water quality of the Columbia River. They also included an example of the pollution by showing a flask of tap water and a flask of water from the river, side by side. The color difference in the waters was very evident, and an effective emphasis of the facts they had presented.
