#10552	16 Aug 2016	Approved	Notes: Rainfall past 48 hrs = 3 mm; atmospheric pressure = 1022.2 hPa. bmp2_1 bmp3_1 bmp3_2
#10550	22 Jul 2016	Approved	Notes: Air Pressure 993.9 hPa Rainfall last 48 hours 19.8 mm High Tide plus swell causing overflow banks at bridge (BmP2) fishing platforms flooded. Wide and deep mouth channel Brush pile at bridge car park has been burnt, but dumping continues. bmp2_1 bmp3_1 bmp3_2
#10389	22 Jun 2016	Approved	Notes: Rainfall in last 48 hours 7.8 mm Atmospheric Pressure 1000.0 hPa. A combination of a higher tide than usual and steady rains in the river catchment are responsible for the high river depth reading. bmp2_1 bmp3_1 bmp3_2
#10333	25 May 2016	Approved	Notes: Rain in last 48 hours 8.6 mm Atmospheric Pressure 1009.6 hPa Since last months monitoring high sea swells+ high tides + low Pressure produced several days of wave surge that appears to have moved much sand across the first berm and depositing it into the river.

#10257	20 Apr 2016	Approved	Notes: Rainfall lst 48 hrs 0mm, Atmospheric Pressure 1020hPaWater level at rain gauge is high with fishing platforms under water. Wide berm across closed mouth has caused the river to widen considerably,flooding hood plover nesting area. Berm length was 38metres. BmP2_20160420_1_136 BmP3_20160420_1_217 BmP3_20160420_2_237
#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.

#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
#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
