Overview

Notes

Estimated height @  G6 0.68 - board unreadable because of silt build up

Dark discharge from reducing outflow around the mouth & to west, pale discharge continuing along foreshore to east. Entrance about 50m wide with sheer sides to channel from 1-2 m. high. Sand has built up on east side of channel -also directly downstream of rock. Longshore drift across mouth over sw swell with backwash return & some waves entering up the channel into the estuary. Waves are going high up on the beach at east end of beach which rises & falls creating some deep areas. Height of beach drops as it reaches the mouth

All tracks & roads are without water including low track where an extremely large number of small (1-3 cm) fish were actively swimming. Small fish were observed in all areas of estuary

D.O. levels @ G2 have greatly improved with flow going upstream while monitoring
