Water slower than upstream
Lots of dogs
Vegetation / trees cut back
Nitrates 4 x higher compared to upstream
Heavy rain and wind over the past 24 hours have led to flooding in local areas.
Outflow from Slyfield treatment works was flowing at full force with large amounts of water going into the river
Regular episodes of wafting sewage smell while testing.
Slower water movement v upstream
Interesting that conductivity higher than upstream though nitrates lower . Phosphates similar
Sewerage pipe, Frothy output
Run out of phosphate tests
