http://www.msnucleus.org/watersheds/tule/plantstguid.html

Extractions: Effects of Water Pollution on Plants Students will perform an experiment in which they will observe how water pollution is absorbed into plants. Only pure water is evaporated, while other substances are left behind. As a result these impurities become part of the water system. All water eventually flows to the oceans. In Fremont, water flows into the San Francisco Bay through a series of creeks and sloughs. Waters running off the west side of the Fremont section of the Diablo Range fill creeks all along the mountain side. These stream waters are joined by waters flowing through city storm drains as well as water run-off from the various farmlands around Fremont. Run-off water may drop into Tyson Lagoon or Lake Elizabeth along the way. The streams enter the bay through the Alameda Flood Channel, Newark Slough, Plummer Creek, Mowry Slough and Mud Slough. Pollution anywhere along this pathway will find its way into the bay. Plants, animals, and microorganisms are all affected by pollution found in the creeks and ponds along the pathway to the bay. Below is information that will help you prepare and conduct the experiment on water pollution. Read all the information before beginning the experiment with your class. The

For more detail about what we do here, click on the links provided below: Services Environmental Education Plant Tours Pollution Prevention ... Contact Us History Sunnyvale incorporated in 1912, with a population of about 1,500. Most of the land was filled with fruit orchards and farms, and it was possible to dispose of wastewater by simply running a pipe to the water of the San Francisco Bay, where the tide carried it out to sea. The 1940's saw Sunnyvale become an important industrial and residential community. In that decade, the population grew to 10,000. At that time, studies were undertaken to verify the need for a citywide sewage treatment system. The resulting sewage treatment plant, completed in 1956, was a primary, or one-step plant that could process 7.5 million gallons of wastewater a day. However, it soon became overloaded due to an increased number of residents, canneries, and other industries locating in Sunnyvale.

Extractions: like to report any problems, please contact the Webmaster Facts About Water Pollution Pollution can come from many different sources such as garbage and yard clippings, urban runoff, including oil and grease from our roads, domestic or wild animal and human feces, pesticides and nitrates from home or agricultural operations, and many others. This pollution can harm aquatic life, create unpleasant odors, and cause illness if people come into contact with the polluted water. The goal of Project Clean Water is to reduce this pollution in order to protect the health of the public and the environment! You can help keep our creeks and beaches clean by following these tips: Visit the Community Environmental Council's Watershed Resource Center for a look at issues surrounding our local waterways. Get involved with your watershed! Local creek and beach clean-ups are organized regularly. Call the Project Clean Water Hotline at 1-877-OUR-OCEAN to get contact numbers for groups that organize these clean-up days.

http://ohioline.osu.edu/aex-fact/0441.html

Extractions: Pathogens: Pathogens are disease-causing microorganisms, such as bacteria and viruses, that come from the fecal waste of humans and animals. Exposure to pathogens from direct contact or ingestion of water can cause a number of health problems. Because of this, bathing beaches are closed, and boil water alerts are issued when testing reveals significant pathogen levels. Pathogens wash off the land from wild animals, farm animals, and pet waste, and can also enter our waterways from improperly functioning septic tanks, leaky sewer lines, and boat sanitary disposal systems. Nutrients: Nutrients are compounds that stimulate plant growth, like nitrogen and phosphorous. Under normal conditions, nutrients are beneficial and necessary, but in high concentrations, they can become an environmental threat. Nitrogen contamination of drinking water can cause health problems, including "blue baby" syndrome. Over fertilization of ponds, streams, and lakes by nutrients can lead to massive algal blooms, the decay of which can create odors and rob the waters of life-sustaining dissolved oxygen. Nutrients in polluted runoff can come from agricultural fertilizers, septic systems, home lawn care products, and yard and animal wastes.
