Site Work Recommendation Form Name: Aya Alghazi Email: [email protected] Please fill in the corresponding data collected in South America: Site A Control Site Acceptable Levels Nitrate Levels 0.75 0.35 below 1 mg/L (SNHU University, 2022). pH 6 7 6.5 – 8.5 (SNHU University, 2022). Turbidity 40 1.0 0.5 NTU – 1.0 NUT (SNHU University, 2022). Written explanation: When looking at the experimental data for fresh water, which includes the results of the tests (for the level of nitrates, pH, and the level of turbidity) at site A and the control site, and then comparing them with the natural level for it We find that the level of nitrates in site A is 0.75, while in the control site it is 0.35, but the acceptable levels are 0.1 - 4 mg / liter. The level of nitrates in some sewage plants is at levels higher than 20 mg / liter, and this means that there is a difference in the result. For the pH, it is 6 in the A site, while it reaches 7 in the control site. As for the natural levels, it is 6.5 - 8.5. Any slight change in the pH poses a threat to several species because their survival and reproduction are linked to a certain number, but a ratio such as six is considered harmless directly to fish, provided that free carbon dioxide is low. As for turbidity, its level in site A is very high. 40) While it is in the control site only 1.0 and its normal ratio is 0.5 NTU to 1.0 NTU (SNHU University, 2022). Negative impact of water pH levels on local populations and wildlife:
