- Describe the water's appearance, any unusual smells or colors, and anything else that doesn't seem quite right.
- Make note of the exact location, any landmarks, weather conditions, and the time of day.
- Use your mobile device to create a shareable pin on a map.
If there are any distinctive features of the source of potential pollution, such as a vehicle or watercraft type, a company name, or a license plate number, please include that information in your report.
