O2 Level Testing Goosepond 8/9/14

[Rivermont Jeff]

I tested several different areas, livewells and at different times also.
I tested the lake at the beginning of the dock in the grass and also at the end of the dock with no grass. I listed the boats that used additives such as ice rejuvenade release me and hydrogen peroxide. I also checked the calibration on my test unit before each test.
Here are my findings.
1. There was no noticeable difference or adverse affects of DO levels with rejuvenade or release me.
2. There were a decrease of O2 levels overnight due to photosynthesis in the lake.
3. There were no significant difference between boats with the Oxygenator and those without.
4. The one boat that used Hydrogen Peroxide was significantly higher than any other that I have ever tested at 10.3 MG/L He used one cup per livewell and never changed the water but did use ice to cool the water.
I will attach a spread sheet with the details
