Lack of water made it difficult to obtain a clear sample at my normal site. Over a 50mtr length there were only 4 sections with water in it up to 300mm depth. They were only rock pools not suitable for sampling. I had to go downstream for approx 150mts before a sample could be taken. If it wasn't for the use of studies for the Simpson Barracks I would be closing down this site from further sampling and stop wasting my time. Litter pollutants observed: paper, bottles, cans, plastic, polystyrene, cardboard, metallic object, and other litter pollutants.
