EMC Erskine River Estuary Mouth Observation Site

Observation details

Overview

Estuary Erskine River Estuary
Site Erskine River Estuary Mouth Observation Site
Observation ID #10639
Date and Time Monday 19th December 2016 11:03am
Approved Approved

Notes

The large tree on the seaward side of the Erskine River bridge lying over the river where it had been dumped after it was felled, is likely to dam up the river after a downfall and cause flooding to the camp site.   I would suggest GORC be asked to cut it up if not remove it all together.
