Where do we drop off funds for ocean water test?

Who is collecting the money for the water test? Where?? This is such a good idea to do the tests. Knowledge is power, or ignorance is bliss. Finding out what we’re dealing with, if anything, will be good for all of us. Thanks again to Daniel and Gerardo and everyone involved.

Hi guys! Great of you to offer, but I have some information. Several years ago I brought down a test for fresh water which cost about $1,000 US. The community came together and helped pay for this unit. It was a way for us to test the water around the streets, our town water, and anyone could test their tanakas. At the time I checked into testing sea water for e. coli and found the costs to be exorbitant (sorry but I can't remember the exact cost) and felt that our community would not be able to reimburse me to the extent I would need. There are many who complain but few willing to pay the costs. Having said that, I don't believe we will have sea water testing in our area unless a far more financially secure individual is willing to bring one down. | ----------------- |
