#14225 1 Aug 2021 Approved Notes:

It was a very calm and still day, hence no wind direction recorded.

The bottom of the river gauge is rather dirty and difficult to read. Assessment of the water level was made as accurately as possible.

Photos show the piles of sand moved by machinery to the front of the dune area where the erosion has occurred over the past months. Sand has been moved by an excavator from the beach south of the estuary into piles around the base of the dunes. These piles of sand extend around to the dunes in front of the surf club.

Work is underway to place sandbags around the base of the dunes to hinder further erosion which has the potential to impact the surf club building.
