More visuals

Unfortunately I do not have a whole lot to report. Some time in the last little while, one of the monitoring stations near the leachate has been tampered with. By the looks of it, the hinges were taken apart because the lock is still in place and secure.






Walking to the South East of the landfill, I noticed an oily sheen on the surface of a small pool of water. It was hard to capture on camera, but definitely visible to the eye. This area is located adjacent to the landfill and approximately 100 metres north of Harmony Creek, with clear erosion from the flow of water during high run-off. A small river can bee seen flowing near this pool along the side of the path into the Creek.
