Stream Waders uses volunteers to monitor and assess waterway health, with the results put into the MD Biological Stream Survey (MBSS) data base.  According to Smokey Stanton, YRWA President, Stream Waders is a potential structure to be used in conducting water quality baseline and continued monitoring of streams in Garrett County. The presentation will include a map developed by DNR of sites they believe should be monitored due to Marcellus shale gas drilling.
