Turbidity definately picking up. The main cause of it occurring at the Diamond Creek end is the Yarra River. As you can see from the picture, there is a definate line passing through the water around 80m up stream at my test point. Also occuring is rubbish building up and getting caught amongst the instream vegetation.
