Professional Water Quality Monitoring Program

Summary

Every month since 1990, environmental scientist, Dr John Laxton, has tested water quality at four sites in the lower reaches of the upper catchment and a further four estuarine sites on the Parramatta and Duck Rivers. This information provides baseline data against which the effectiveness of water quality improvement measures in the catchment can be assessed. It shows changes in water quality, and includes a summary of ANZECC water quality guidelines, and the graphed results for each parameter tested.
