Last rainfall not specified. The Crosby (Southern) arm (site 1b) declined from 27/40 to 22/40. This was due to increased evidence of bank erosion, and poorer in-stream vegetation ? probably affected by the ongoing oily pollution in the creek. A considerable amount of sediment is being washed from the banks which has caused a reduction in the quality of pools and riffles. Bank vegetation has also been affected by weed growth.
