Collie River - Booth Street

The condition of the Booth Street site (CR346COLL1), between the Wellington and Harris reservoirs was assessed between 19 and 20 February 2018,  over a 100-m length of stream.

The assessment was conducted using standard methods from the South West Index of River Condition. Measures chosen for this assessment included fish and crayfish, aquatic habitat, water quality (dissolved oxygen, temperature, electrical conductivity, and pH logged over 24h, and colour, alkalinity, turbidity and nutrients), fringing vegetation, channel morphology, erosion, connectivity, local land use and flow.

Five fish species and one crayfish species were found at this site in 2018, including two exotic fish species.
