The Lake DePue is located on the south side of the town. The water sampling conducted by Mr Garcia’s environmental science class in cooperation with Carus Labs revealed the following heavy metal contaminants in Lake DePue:
Aluminum | 0.62 mg/L |
Arsenic | ND mg/L |
Barium | 1.73 mg/L |
Calcium | 79.05 mg/L |
Chromium | ND mg/L |
Copper | 0.02 mg/L |
Iron | 0.84 mg/L |
Potassium | 9.13 mg/L |
Lead | 0.13 mg/L |
Magnesium | 30.33 mg/L |
Manganese | 0.07 mg/L |
Nickel | 0.01 mg/L |
Sodium | 73.34 mg/L |
Zinc | 0.99 mg/L |
If these samples were taken from the lake they should be in mg/L.
