To: CLEAR members and friends.......................

It is proposed that CLEAR purchase a portable meter that measures Electrical Conductivity (EC) and pH for use on Cheat Lake and the local feeder streams. This will be particularly valuable during times of low flow, when there are releases of pollutants upstream or when the local feeder streams are suspected of contamination of the Lake. [We already have a turbidity meter that I have been using as has Mike Strager, our VP.]

We have enough money on hand. And, we have $2000 of credit with the Mon Co. Commission for reimbursement after expenditures, much of which is to be used for educational programs dealing with recreation in the Cheat Lake Park and Trail.

PROPOSED PURCHASE A.S.A.P
