SUMMARY:Benthic Invertebrate Sampling
DESCRIPTION:Our newly trained team of benthic invertebrate samplers will be out for the first time\, collecting baseline samples from six streams.  These include:  Thames\, Annie\, Waterloo\, McNaughton\, Bloedel and Emily Creeks.  We will be joined by Katie Schulze who has offered to help us with species identification.  We expect great fun creek-side\, and lessons learned doing “the real thing”.

SUMMARY:The River Never Sleeps
DESCRIPTION:The River Never Sleeps Festival runs each year thanks to the work of the volunteers of the Fanny Bay Salmonid Enhancement Society.  Approximately 30 volunteer groups and environmental organizations host booths to highlight the amazing amount of work done to protect salmon and the environment in this area.  A highlight of the event is the chance to release young salmon into Rosewall Creek. \nCome and meet Beaufort Watershed Stewards volunteers at our booth.  We’ll have games and lots of information.

SUMMARY:Protecting Salmon from Tire Wear Toxicants: 6PPDQ Workshop 2025
DESCRIPTION:Beginning in 2021\, the BC Conservation Foundation (BCCF) and Vancouver Island University’s (VIU) Applied Environmental Research Labs (AERL) partnered to assess the impacts of tire wear toxins (TWTs)\, specifically the chemical compound 6PPDQ\, along the East Coast of Vancouver Island (ECVI). \nBCCF and AERL have since collaborated with local First Nations\, stewardship groups\, and all levels of government (municipal/regional/federal) across the ECVI to execute a comprehensive monitoring program. \nThe BCCF/VIU AERL project team will be hosting another workshop in Nanaimo\, BC. The event\, Protecting Salmon From Tire Wear Toxicants – 6PPDQ Workshop 2025\, will run for two days: May 8 – 9\, 2025. This event will be split into four sessions this year: 6PPDQ Policy\, Engineering & Solutions\, Monitoring & Lessons Learned\, and Toxicology. There is limited space this year\, so keep an eye on your email for when registration opens.

SUMMARY:Refundable Sorting
DESCRIPTION:Sorting refundable is one of BWS’s main revenue sources.  That’s how we buy a lot of our monitoring equipment and pay for general operating expenses (like the website).  Lise is amazing at keeping us all organized and tracking exactly what flows through the sorting system.  We welcome new volunteers to join us for laughs\, a quick time commitment\, and yes\, a bit of stickiness–gloves provided.  Contact info@beaufortwater.org for information on where to join us.
