This result is late as it had been cancelled twice. Once because we did not have enough available volunteers, then for very stormy weather forecast.
This testing was done by 2 people as once again the forecast was very stormy for Wednesday afternoon, Thursday and Friday with Friday (our waterwatch day) had the worst forecast. Testing was done on Wednesday morning.
So Dandenong Creek was tested but Blind Creek was not tested.
