As the creek's current water level is very low the sample was taken from a water hole in the creek about 2m from the normal sample point. This waterhole stay's filled with water all year long. Although the water in hole looks dark when viewed from above it turns out to be very clean in the test tube, cleaner than with the creek in full flow. Habitat same as in last report. The creek's habitat does not change.
