Dampier Bulk Liquids Berth Project: Dredge Modeling Study Stage 1. 024/03, Unpublished report to the Dampier Port Authority by Global Environmental Modeling Systems, Perth, Western Australia. Statement: The water quality monitoring program for the Mermaid Sound dredging projects incorportated 19 monitoring locations throught the Dampier Archipelago. The names, designation and locations of each of the monitoring sites are given below: SITE : FUNCTION : PROGRAM Angel Island (ANGI) : Reference (Near) : DPA /HI Conzinc Bay North (COBN) : Impact : DPA/HI Conzinc Island (CONI) : Impact : DPA/HI Dampier Wharf North (DPAN) : Impact : DPA East Lewis Island 1 (ELI1) : Impact : HI East Lewis Island 2 (ELI2) : Impact : HI East Lewis Island 3 (ELI3) : Impact : HI Gidley Island (GIDI) : Reference (Near) : DPA/HI High Point (HGPT) Reference (Far) : DPA/HI Holden Point (HOLD) : Impact : DPA King Bay (KGBY) : Impact : HI Malus Island (KGBY) : Reference (Far) : DPA/HI North Withnell (NWIT) : Reference (Near) : DPA/HI South Withnell (SWIT) : Reference (Near) : DPA/HI Supply Base (SUPB) : Impact : DPA Tidepole Island (TDPL) : Impact : HI West Intercourse Island (WINI) : Reference (Far) : DPA/HI West Lewis Island 1 (WLI1) : Reference (Far) : DPA West Lewis Island 2 (WLI2) : Reference (Far) : DPA Statement: Three models of multi-parameter probe were used as a result of damage or failure: - In situ Troll 9000; - YSI Sonde 6820; and - Yeo-Kal YK-611. Each instrument in use was calibrated for each parameter on a fortnightly basis. Total Suspended Solids (TSS) were measured by laboratory analysis of collected water samples. Two litres of water were taken from both the bottm and surface levels at each of the sites. Aerial surveys were flown at 770m in a Cessna 172 light aircraft using a 5 or 6 megapixal digital SLR camera. Credit S. Anstee from Sinclair Knight Merz and Jim Stoddart undertook the study for Dampier Port ...
