Guest Host: Frank Stasio

Stream gauges serve a range of vital functions, as early warning mechanisms for floods and droughts and as a measure of pollutants in our waterways. They also provide information for our region’s recreational kayakers and fishermen. Yet recent funding problems have put the future of the capital’s Little Falls station in jeopardy. A discussion on stream gauges, and what our region’s waterways tell us about the health of our environment.
