#9591	6 May 2015	Approved	Notes: Rainfall last 48 hours 38 mm. Atmospheric Pressure 1008.3 hPa. Storm surge, high tide and high rainfall all contributed to exceptional water levels, overwashed berms and dramatic scenery. It is possible that at low tide the mouth would be closed - the water depth across the mouth was quite shallow at high tide. BmP2_20150506_1_136 BmP3_20150506_1_217 BmP3_20150506_2_257

#10010	15 Dec 2015	Approved	Notes: Rainfall last 48 hours 0mm, Atmospheric Pressure 1016 hPa Vegetation has established along the berm opposite the fishing platform and towards the mouth Water stain on river banks at the mouth suggests river level has been higher during the last 24 hours, suggesting the river level has been higher, possibly due to wave intrusion at high tide (1.66m ) at 03:05 BmP2_20151215_1_136 BmP3_20151215_1_217 BmP3_20151215_2_257
#10076	15 Jan 2016	Approved	Notes: Rainfall last 48 hours 4.2mm. Atmospheric Prressure 1032.5 hPa. Water stain on sandbank sugests the river level rose with the higher tide of 1.67 @04.06am, with rough waves surmounting the the berm at the mouth. Berm along the beach front is spotted with pioneering plants, and has been fenced off for hooded plovers nesting. Berm length 65.5m. Bmp2_20160115_1_136 Bmp3_20160115_1_217 Bmp3_20160115_2_257
#10196	11 Mar 2016	Approved	Notes: Rainfall last 48 hours 7.2 mm. Atmos. Press. 1018.3 hPa Photo included of brush pile @fishing platforms car park - it continues to grow!!. Berm opposite fishing platform is quite high with colonizing vegetation well established. No evidence of wash over by waves. The Algae mat noted last month is now senescing. The river moouth opening, though wide, is shallow inhibiting water flow either in or out. Mouth would be CLOSED at low tide. We have enclosed a copy of a letter addressed to Otway Coast Committee regarding the brush dumping at the car park, for your information.
