Darlow Water quality update – 16-Jan-2023

With so much wet weather recently, Darlow is currently in flood, but the good news is that the bank repairs to the bypass channel seem to be holding up and we are not seeing water flooding directly in from the river. Water levels are very high, so most of the Read more…

Darlow Water quality update – 26-Oct-2022

Water quality at Darlow continues to look good. We have seen a small increase in ammonia to trace levels (0.04 mg/L, pH8.2), but they are not a major cause for concern at this stage and is probably a result of the disruption of silt during the weed removal process. All Read more…
