Comments and Feedback
Although there was no loose debris on the Pipe, we did discover two entangled monofilament nets. We will be returning to the site to investigate the nets and sort out retrevial within the next month. It was rather depressing to see the nets as we removed 4 monofilament nets last year. Hopefully if we can remove the nets quickly, we will reduce the risk of entangled organisms.
