Secchi depth edited from 40 to 0.4 metres by admin
Heavy traffic at time of sampling prevented an attempt to get secchi depth from highway bridge. Current sluggish, surface flow appeared to be moving upstream, weeds were bent downstream. Algal blooms present.
Secchi depth determination difficult from shore - advise trying from bridge abutment if safe to do so.
Took measurement from creek edge so did not measure water depth or sechhi depth.
Water slow moving, brown, turbid.
Water sample taken from creek edge (very shallow).
