Project Essay
Kate112 Registered: June 2011 City/Town/Province: Rochester Posts: 1 View this Member's Photo Gallery	This pond is located in a highly developed part of the Town of Gates. What is concerning is the lower water level compared to previous years, when a science partner and I conducted a series of water quality tests, and we found high levels of nitrogen and low levels of dissolved oxygen. As of now, pH and ammonia are normal, but there is a substantial quantity of sewage waste, plastic bags, among other waste products. I brought this issue up to the Town Conservation Board, and I am planning on recruiting people to help me clean up the pond so that ducks and geese come back to use it.

I have a trust named Viswaguru Charitable Trust in the Angul district of Orissa, India. I want to know how we could get a similar project, such as yours, in Orissa.
