Clearing of vegetation and restructuring of the streamside was completed. Now the access to the stream is a lot more stable. It rained the night before so the volume of the stream was high. Bit of litter left from the restructuring. Prosphate reading from last month was 0mg/L but it was over 0.25mg/L this month. Foam and bubbles were visible.
