Module 3 Water Quality Index

Stream Name: CHASTER CREEK | Survey Date: July 28th, 2020
Chemical Test Result Q-value Weighting Index Value
Temperature Change: Temperature 0.2 90.00 X 0.10 = 9
Oxygen Saturation: 113.60 95.00 x 0.17 = 16.15
pH (units): 7.75 90.00 x 0.11 = 9.9
Turbidity - JTU: 1.00 95.00 x 0.08 = 7.6
Total = Water Quality Index (Compare this value to the Water Quality Chart below)
