Other litter included car tyre, orange road safety mesh, blue packing webbing, white plastic garden pot, orange bottle top & a coke plastic bottle. Anna joined us to undetake shadow testing...pointed out that a cap should be fitted to a star steel post (this is a hazard we past on the way to the site). Our v Anna's air temp. (15.2 v 16.5) & water (9.8 v 10) + dissolved oxygen (6 v 8) + turbidity (23 v 17) were the variances while the other results were the same. Our water samples were shaken for Turbidity, filtered & warmed for Phosphate & Ammonium.
