New caretakers on Morwell River

West Gippsland CMA would like to introduce our newest WaterWatch volunteers. Robert and Lil have been testing the water quality at Morwell River on behalf of the Boolarra South Landcare group since January. The retired couple bring an amazing wealth of knowledge to the program having both studied science at University and worked in science-based careers.

They were inspired to become a WaterWatch volunteer to take up “the opportunity to continue collecting data from a long-term monitoring site in the foothills of the Strzelecki Ranges” says Lil.

The spot on the Morwell River is important to them because water arising from natural springs on their farm eventually make their way to the site, connecting them in one big system.
“We really enjoy visiting our site on the Morwell River.”

Thanks for volunteering your time and expertise Robert and Lil (below)!
