Weather permitting, scientists from the Washington Department of Ecology will release a harmless fluorescent dye into Lacamas Creek and its tributaries tonight and the evenings of Wednesday and Thursday.

The harmless dye helps researchers track the speed of the stream flow. It dissipates quickly and should be gone by morning.
