Trend analysis was performed by applying a LOWESS fit (tension 0.4) to a time scatterplot
of the percentage cover of thick mats, and long filaments of periphyton for all sites and by
testing the significance of any trend using the Mann-Kendall test at the 5% level, followed by
Benjamini-Hochberg False Discovery Rate (FDR) analysis.

report also assigns them a rating for their environmental and administrative performance during the period
under review.
Environmental performance is concerned with actual or likely effects on the receiving environment from the
activities during the monitoring year. Administrative performance is concerned with CCCWSL’s approach to
demonstrating consent compliance in site operations and management including the timely
