Volunteers collect and analyze water samples and gather and identify macro-invertebrates (tiny bugs) to determine the relative health of stream waters that are part of the White River watershed. They send data recorded quarterly to the Arkansas Game and Fish Commission.
NCAMN’s Stream Team has adopted the following streams:
Baxter County
Little Pigeon Creek in Mountain Home
Marion County
Moccasin Creek and Jimmie Creek near Flippin
Crooked Creek access points at Fred Berry and Pyatt
Shawnee Town Branch and Mill Creek in Yellville

Calico Creek in Calico Rock
Strawberry River in Horseshoe Bend

Spring River—South Branch at Salem
Stone County (with Foothills chapter, FAMN)

Work continues throughout the year, one workday morning per month.
