Module 3 Water Quality Index

Stream Name: DAKOTA CREEK | Survey Date: July 15th, 2024
Chemical Test Result Q-value Weighting Index Value
Temperature Change: Temperature 92.00 X 0.10 = 9.2
Oxygen Saturation: 95.70 96.00 x 0.17 = 16.32
pH (units): 6.50 80.00 x 0.11 = 8.8
Turbidity - JTU: 0.00 100.00 x 0.08 = 8
Total = Water Quality Index (Compare this value to the Water Quality Chart below)
