Site B7.1

Site B7.1 is located on Caratti Creek, Church St, Bellingen (downstream of footbridge near the tennis courts).

Bellingen Riverwatch volunteers have tested this site for seven water quality parameters (Dissolved Oxygen, Water Temperature, Air Temperature, Electrical Conductivity, Available Phosphate, Turbidity, pH) from September 2017 ongoingly. Volunteers continue to monitor water quality at this site monthly.

Thank you to those who have gathered the water quality data for site B7.1 - currently Pauline Kidson and previously Henare Degan, and to the roving volunteers that support them.
