Protecting Kauai's Ocean Resources
BLUE WATER TASK FORCE
The Blue Water Task Force is our water quality testing program. It is comprised of a group of individuals who the second Saturday morning of the month, paddle out to various surf spots on the island, and collect a water sample to be tested later in our lab. If you are interested in participating in the BWTF, or would like to find out more, contact Project Manager Dr. Carl Berg: 808-639-2968 or cberg@pixi.com
