of suspended solids also fluctuate over time with a range of <2 to 250 g/m3 recorded over all the
sites. The unnamed tributaries on this site are generally small, clear running, low energy brooks with silty
beds. With increased rainfall the suspended solids level in these tributaries can rise quite quickly as silt is
stirred up from the beds and edges of the streams entraining it in the flow. Overall the level of suspended
solids indicates good water quality in the stream system.

During the year under review the pond was not found to be discharging at the time
of inspection and therefore the leachate/stormwater sample was again collected
from the pond immediately upstream of the pond outlet.

have temporary adverse effects on coastal water quality. Wastewater discharges from

Water quality can also be impacted on a short-term or on an ongoing basis by discharges
