City Stream Watch Program – Monitoring in Corkery Creek

In 2015, permission was granted to survey the 40 sections of Corkery Creek, shown on Figure 3, which cover approximately 4 km of the main creek. While these 40 sampled sections provide a good representation of the overall condition of Corkery Creek it should be noted that several large sections of the creek which flow through unwadeable wetland areas, or through properties where permission was not granted are not represented in this assessment. These areas provide additional diversity of habitat with valuable natural functions.
