| Discovery Notes | We decided to take very moist clay from a pond on the Letourneau campus. The temperature was 91 degrees and we dug about 3 inches into the soil to get our sample.The sample was a light brown and was about 8 inches from the water. The top of the soil was warm but 3 inches into the soil was very cool and wet. |
| Naming Notes | We chose the name "Equalizer" because the virus kills the bacteria so, therefore, it equalizes it and makes that bacteria non-harmful. |
