Stream Monitoring
A crucial aspect of improving water quality in the watershed, is UGWA's Long Term Monitoring Program (LTMP). The LTMP relies on Volunteer Water Monitors to gather the data that allows UGWA to secure funding for wastewater and restoration projects.
In addition to the LTMP, two Short Term Monitoring Programs (STuMPs) are implemented as well. The goal of the STuMPs is to monitor priority subwatersheds before, during, and after project implementation to gauge water quality improvement. Currently the subwatersheds with STuMPs in place are Winding Gulf and Devils Fork.

Famous quotes containing the word stream:
“In contrast to the flux and muddle of life, art is clarity and enduring presence. In the stream of life, few things are perceived clearly because few things stay put. Every mood or emotion is mixed or diluted by contrary and extraneous elements. The clarity of art—the precise evocation of mood in the novel, or of summer twilight in a painting—is like waking to a bright landscape after a long fitful slumber, or the fragrance of chicken soup after a week of head cold.”
—Yi-Fu Tuan (b. 1930)
