Hazards
Litter/Pollutants

Scummy looking water in drainage pit (no flow out into river), with litter including hard plastic items.  Reeds growing back in river in shallow water area.  Difficult to get proper water sample from deeper water. Sample site very shallow.  River flow is low to moderate.  Typical for early summer flow.  Not much going over weirs.
