#5805	9 Jul 2011	Approved	Notes: Gaugeboard at "At the Heads" jetty surrounded by sand. Bp3 (1) Bp3 (2) Bp4 (1) Bp4 (2) Bp4 (3)
#5723	22 Jun 2011	Approved	Bp3 (1) Bp3 (2) Bp4 (1) Bp4 (2)
#5666	11 Jun 2011	Approved	Notes: Gauge board is land-locked at low tide. Measurement not possible Bp3 (1) Bp3 (2) Bp4 (1) Bp4 (2)
#5651	22 May 2011	Approved	Notes: No tide height measurements possible as guage board out of water, sand up to 0.6m mark No 1 No 1 No 2 No 2 No 3
#5481	9 May 2011	Approved	Notes: Both gaugeboards are too dirty to see the scale. Could only make a rough estimate of the water level. Bp3 (1) Bp3 (2) Bp4 (1) Bp4(2)
#5436	16 Apr 2011	Approved	Notes: BP4 photos were taken on 17/4 as a wedding party was using the table from which BP4 photos are taken on 16/4 No 1 No 1 No 2 No 2 No 3
#5368	3 Apr 2011	Approved	Notes: Gauge board still too dirty to read water level Bp3 (1) Bp3 (2) Bp4 (1) Bp4 (2)
#5327	17 Mar 2011	Approved	No 1 No 1 No 2 No 2 No 3
#5262	7 Mar 2011	Approved	Notes: We were unable to read water level gauge - too dirty. Bp1 and Bp2 still to be redefined after bridge works Tide condition probably "slack", but the effect of the northerly wind on the surface of water made the flow appear to be "outward". We were surprised that the wind strength was greater at Bp3 (sea level), than at Bp4 (top of the Bluff). Our wind observations were recorded for Bp4 (as usual). Bp 3 (1) Bp 3 (2) Bp 4 (1) Bp 4 (2)
#5202	17 Feb 2011	Approved	Notes: BP1 and BP2 observations not made as light towers marking each position have been removed. No 1 No 1 No 2 No 2 No 3
#5104	6 Feb 2011	Approved	Notes: Gauge boards (at Sheepwash Rd and at restaurant jetty) are both too muddy to read scale. River water is brown and turbid following recent recent heavy rains Bp3 (1) Bp3 (2) Bp4 (1) Bp4 (2)
#5001	18 Jan 2011	Approved	Notes: 1. Position of BP1 and BP2 approximate as per Decembde observations. 2. Water in estuary and 300m past Bluff discoloured brown from recent flooding event. No 1 No 1 No 1 No 1 No 2 No 2 No 2 No 3 No 3 No 4
#4990	18 Jan 2011	Approved	Notes: Gauge-boards too dirty to see scale. No readings taken. New markers for BP1 &BP2 have not yet been redefined. Bridge reconstruction still proceeding. Bp3 (1) Bp3 (2) Bp4 (1) Bp4 (2)
#4903	1 Jan 2011	Approved	Notes: Depth gauge at Sheepwash Rd corner well above water level. Its base is so muddy that the scale is obscured and would be illegible even if it were in the water. The sign marking the position of BP3 has been removed following restoration of pedestrian access to the western bank of the river. Although pedestrian access is again available on the main bridge, the light posts that marked the positions of BP1 and BP2 have been removed. Bp3 (1) Sign has been removed at Bp3 Bp3 (2) Bp4 (1) Bp4 (2)
#4861	18 Dec 2010	Approved	Notes: Position of BP1 and BP2 approximate as light towers no longer present on bridge. BP1: 53m from western end of railing on road bridge BP2: 10m west of navigation channel, measured from line of red buoys Construction sign marking BP3 no longer present, grassy knol still obvious. Construction sign no longer present. See note. Position approximate. See note Position approximate. See note.
#4663	12 Nov 2010	Approved	Notes: Bp1 and Bp2 remain inaccessible due to bridgeworks. Sheepwash Rd gaugeboard used but it was very muddy, and the scale was obscured at the level of the water. Water levels estimated. Bp3 (1) Bp3 (2) Bp4 (1) Bp4 (2)
#4542	8 Oct 2010	Approved	Notes: Bp1 and Bp2 remain inaccessible due to bridge works Gauge board near Sheepwash Rd corner used, but at the start of observations, it was still above the water level, although it was approximately 3 hours since the time of low tide. Nankeen kestrel seen at mouth. Australian Pelicans, Great Egrets, Royal Spoonbills and various cormorants seen at Sheepwash Rd site Bp3 (1) Bp3 (2) Bp4 (1) Bp4 (2)
#4201	13 Aug 2010	Approved	Notes: Water level measurements not possible - sandbank covering scale to height of 1.0 m. Photopoints 1 and 2 not accessable due to bridge construction. No 1 No 1 No 2 No 2 No 3
#4181	6 Aug 2010	Approved	Notes: Gaugeboard surrounded by sand at both start and finish. Bridgeworks prevented pedestrian access to Bp1 and Bp2, hence no images for those sites BP1 (1) BP2 (1) BP3 (1) BP3 (2) BP4 (1) BP4 (2)
#4002	17 Jul 2010	Approved	No 1 No 1 No 1 No 1 No 2 No 2 No 2 No 3 No 3 No 4 No 5
#4004	17 Jul 2010	Approved	No 1 No 2
#3804	1 Jul 2010	Approved	Notes: Water level was below gauge board at start and finish. Wind stress on water surface made it appear that the tide direction was outward. BP1 (1) BP2 (1) BP2 (2) BP2 (3) BP2 (4) BP3 (1) BP3 (2) BP4 (1) BP4 (2)
#4441	22 Jun 2010	Approved	Notes: Water level gauge board out of the water. Bp1.1 Bp2.1 Bp2.2 Bp2.3 Bp2.4 Bp2.5 Bp3.1 Bp3.2 Bp4.1 Bp4.2 Water Level Gauge Board
