The Town of Barnstable is recruiting volunteers to be citizen scientists.
Every summer the town collects water samples in Barnstable Harbor, Lewis Bay, Centerville River, Halls Creek, and Three Bays to provide important information about the health of the estuaries.
This year, the town is asking volunteers to sample each estuary four times between mid-July and early September.
Anyone interested in being part of the water quality monitoring program should contact Brooke.Withers@town.barnstable.ma.us.
