Bloomington, IN wastewater treatment plans use a noodle to make collecting samples easier

City of Bloomington Utilities innovates tool for sampling

Workers attached a pool noodle to the water sampler, both extending the reach of the worker using the sampler while also creating a form of buoyancy should the worker drop the sampler in the tank. Innovations such as this one, using common items one can buy from the Dollar Store may seem simple and small, but their impact is large. Dropping a sampler is still an annoyance, but the recovery is much faster and the instrument remains intact and no longer needs replacement.
