Notes:
Prior to our observation on the 16th November there had been substantial rain and also quite a few tidal inflows. For the first time in years a fisherman had caught three of four bream and a salmon. We assume they were coming into their home estuary to spawn. We have not seen fish in the river for years - because of the acidity. Sorry about photos being upside down. I'm sure you can fix them faster than I. |

Photosite Ap2 needs to be moved because of rapid growth of vegetation on the dune, which is blocking out the view of the estuary, probably due to abundant RF this year. Coordinator will record new site before next observation and adjust the relevant documentation. |

Notes:
This datasheet was completed during a workshop with the Surf Coast Green Army team. The estuary was artificially opened earlier that day. The digger was still operating when we arrived at the estuary mouth at 9:30am. On this occoasion no photopoint photos were taken because it was unsafe to cross the estuary mouth. See photos. |
