| Summary: | Hang with U.S. Geological Survey hydrologists testing Hester Creek / Off Buddy Williamson Road north of New Market / Hester Creek north of New Market is one of the country's most polluted streams. It ties in to the Flint River, which ties in to the Tennessee River, where most of Huntsville gets its drinking water. Hydrologist Anne Hoose, with the U.S. Geological Survey in Nashville, drives down here every month to collect and test water samples from Hester Creek and the Flint River to keep track of the worsening pollution. We're meeting her and another hydrologist from Memphis named Jerry Garrett. Obvious art is one, or both, of them bending down at stream filling up vials, and maybe an inset close-up of a vial filled with dirty, sediment-filled water.
