Notes

Trees line the riverbank, there was a bag of discarded rubbish on the riverbank, there was a (washing machine) smell when the pipe was discharging more strongly. We tested nitrates and phosphates twice when there was a gentler flow from the pipe, and when there was a more surging flow. The results were the same. There was bubbling and some foam immediately below the outflow pipe following the stronger surge.
