Become an official certified Virginia Save Our Streams water quality monitor to see how healthy your local streams are.

VA Save Our Streams (SOS) is a fun way to test water quality by collecting and identifying underwater insects, called macroinvertebrates. The Izaak Walton League of America Fredericksburg Chapter is hosting a workshop for those who wish to become a certified VA SOS Monitor and have their data utilized by the Virginia Department of Environmental Quality.

This training will certify volunteers in the Rocky Bottom collection protocol.
