Progress Report #1: Human Impact on the Biodiversity of Four Mile Creek

This Progress Report submitted by Megen Leigh, Diane Jones, Les Arms [e-mail:jonesdr@muohio.edu] on 4/5/03.

Thus far we have spent several hours at the local library, unsuccessfully trying to find out the names of those who live along the creek. It was decided to contact Three Valley Conservation Trust for their assistance and introductions to the creek's residents. Contact by e-mail was attempted on Wednesday, April 2nd. No reply has yet been received. If reply has not been received by this Wednesday, attempt to contact the organization by phone will be made.

Arrangements as to the equipment and actual sampling are being made through Hays Cummins and we are waiting for him to contact the person in charge of the electroshocking device and get back to us.

Basically the project has been set into motion, and now much of it is out of our hands. We are waiting for others now, but will actively pursue other options if this does not happen very quickly.
