Description

The Total Suspended Solids (TSS) test is a certified laboratory test panel designed measure the amount of particles, like silt, organic matter, and algae, suspended in the water. High TSS levels can reduce water clarity, block sunlight needed by aquatic plants, and harm fish and other organisms. It can also indicate erosion, runoff, or pollution entering the lake. Monitoring TSS helps manage water quality, maintain ecosystem health, and guide decisions for sediment control and lake management.
