#4741	29 Nov 2010	Approved	Notes: Air Pressure 1021.4 hPa Rainfall in last 24 hours 14.6 mm River Level much lower than during the winter season BmP1.1 at golf course BmP2.1 at river gauge on Great Ocean Road
#4921	3 Jan 2011	Approved	Notes: Air Pressure 1018 hPa Rainfall over last 48 hrs 0.0 mm More bed rock exposed at river mouth - see photos BmP1.1 mouth with rocks exposed Bmp1.2 mouth and up stream BmP1.3 up steam from mouth - final in panorama BmP2.1 at river gauge photopoint
#5086	3 Feb 2011	Approved	Notes: Air Pressure 1014.3 hPa, Rainfall 0.00mm last 48 hrs. River level very low. River gauge exposed down to mud layers that have buried the lower readings beyond 0.5 m. Recorded reading above is an estimate only. Stains and dampness of the exposed sand along river banks suggest that the overnight high tide of 1.4m did have a tidal influence on the river. BmP1.1 river exit at mouth BmP1.2 river slightly upstream from mouth exit BmP2.1 across river at fishing platform BmP2.2 shows gauge covered by mud deposits, and river level below visible gauge readings
#5281	10 Mar 2011	Approved	Notes: Air Pressure 1017.4 hPa Rainfall last 48 hours 1.8mm There has been an accretion of sand on the berm close to river mouth since last monitoring session BmP1.1 - river mouth with outward flow BmP1.2 - upstream of river mouth at golf course photopoint BmP2.1 River at Ocean Road
#5382	7 Apr 2011	Approved	Notes: Rainfall last 48 hours 0mm, Air Pressure 1029 hPa Build up of silt and vegetation around fishing platform at Gauge site is changing bank configuration (see photo BmP2.2) BmP1.1 estuary mouth BmP1.2 upstream of estuary mouth BmP2.1 across fishing platform BmP2.2 showing silt build up around fishing platform
#5504	8 May 2011	Approved	Notes: Air Pressure 1015 hPa Rainfall last 48 hours 3.6 mm The River level at gauge is higher than it has been for a number of monitoring sessions. BmP1.1 river mouth BmP1.2 up river from river mouth BmP2.1 view from fishing platform
#5645	7 Jun 2011	Approved	Notes: Air Pressure 1012 hPa, Rainfall last 48 hours 17.4mm River level high from winter rainfall, covering fishing platforms. Storm surge and high tide waves washing over lowered berms at both bridge site and golf course site. The berm at the mouth has been lowered to sea level at high tide. See photos. Storm surge slowing outward flow of river at high tide. BmP1.1 mouth of estuary BmP1.2 upstream from mouth BmP2.1 across river at fishing platform
#5781	3 Jul 2011	Approved	Notes: Air Pressure 1017 hPa, Rainfall over last 48 hours 2.4 mm BmP1.1 Mouth of the river BmP2.1 across river at bridge site on GOR
#5921	6 Aug 2011	Approved	Notes: Air Pressure 1016.7 hPa Rainfall in last 48 hours 0.8mm River mouth wider and deeper than last monitoring observation. Height of berm across from fishing platform at bridge /gauge station is higher. BmP1.1 mouth of river - wider and retreated upstream from July observation BmP2.1 berm across from fishing platform is higher than July observation
#6022	31 Aug 2011	Approved	Notes: Rainfall last 48 hours 2.6 mm, Atmospheric Pressure 1027 hPa. River flow was downstream at the bridge. Waves at river mouth moved upstream about 30 metres. Turbidity of river was very low due to low rainfall over last 3 weeks, and lack of sedimentation from mountain slopes. BmP1.1 river mouth BmP1.2 upstream from river mouth View from fishing platform
