Housing development has led to the original channel being greatly enlarged as part of the lake system in the new development.   Construction works in the area are nearing completion and we can now access the body of water which has replaced the original channel.  So I took a sample on the edge of the lake approximately 100 meters north of the original site.

Do you want to continue monitoring this new body of water ?
