Notes

Easy access at the location. Watch out with bare tree branches as they could scratch.
Park/Recreation is also a pollution source in the immediate surroundings.
A community member broke an ampoule from too high, water did not activate the substance in the ampoule after 2 minutes, the dissolved oxygen was only 3 mg/L. Algae is along the shoreline and have not seen this much before at this location.
