Testing at the headwater was difficult due to the appearance and level. Last flow due to rainfall was 7 days ago. This quickly disappeared to form only shallows of water body. Phosphate reading of 0.06mg/L again caused concern. The Yallambie Creek was even more of concern due to the high salinity, phosphate, and about normal ammonium results.
