CMC data makes a splash at the 2019 National Water Quality Monitoring Conference

The Chesapeake Monitoring Cooperative was well represented at the National Water Quality Monitoring
Conference in Denver at the end of March. Several members of the team attended the conference and
shared CMC progress and resources through a variety of presentations. Peter Tango, Emily Bialowas,
Helen Schlimm, and Caroline Donovan presented a champion session which covered the whole scope of
the project, from background to building blocks to data and communication. The Data Explorer was
further highlighted in a talk about volunteer data integration by Helen Schlimm. CMC appreciated the
chance to show how far we have come as a collaborative and to address a range of questions. The
conference was a great opportunity for us to reconnect with our team and to get to know other
monitoring representatives in the field.
