Rainfall occured several hours prior to testing. At the time of testing it began to drizzle. Water flow from the main drain into the creek was steady. Sample was taken 300mm from main flow. Plenty of frog activity up/ down the creek. Parameter reading improved from the last month. Bug activity minimal.
