Hawkesbury-Nepean River water quality data

Luke Bacon made this Government Information (Public Access) request to Water NSW

This request has been closed to new correspondence from the public body. Contact us if you think it ought be re-opened.

The request was successful.

Dear Sydney Catchment Authority,

Could you please provide me with water quality data for the Hawkesbury-Nepean River, for the period of 2010 - to March 2015, collected by the Sydney Catchment Authority. Could you please provide the data in a spreadsheet format like CSV.

If this data is already available in a format like this, I'd really appreciate a link to it. If not, could you please treat this as an information request.

The existence of the data is referenced in the Hawkesbury-Nepean River Environmental Monitoring Program Final Technical Report:

"The majority of water quality and hydrology data for the Hawkesbury-Nepean River were provided to DECC by SCA and Sydney Water in January 2007. ." - page 8,

The report is available online at http://www.environment.nsw.gov.au/resour...

Yours faithfully,

Luke Bacon

Tracey Schultz,

Hi Tracey,

If it's not too much trouble, could I also get the site codes for all the monitoring sites? If this information is online somewhere just a link would be fine.

Thanks again for your help.

Hi Tracey

Sorry, I was unclear. I actually meant to say 'the site codes for all the monitoring sites in NSW', rather than just the ones on the Hawkesbury-Nepean River.

Thanks for your help,

Luke Bacon
