Long-term monitoring sites<br />
A review was conducted of current and historic SCA, Sydney Water, DECC EPA,<br />
DWE and DPI Fisheries monitoring sites in the <strong>Hawkesbury</strong>-<strong>Nepean</strong> <strong>River</strong>. From this<br />
list, a selection of sites that had long-term ongoing monitoring was identified. Many of<br />
these sites are currently monitored as a result of various licences (e.g. Water<br />
Management Licences or DECC EPA Pollution Control Licences). Added to this were<br />
sites that were currently monitored under the SCA’s Woronora <strong>Environmental</strong> Flows<br />
Project and sites that were not currently monitored but had a relatively long history of<br />
sampling and/or were located in strategic sections of the river system. These sites<br />
are identified in Table 3.1 and form the core of the <strong>Hawkesbury</strong>-<strong>Nepean</strong><br />
<strong>Environmental</strong> <strong>Monitoring</strong> <strong>Program</strong>.<br />
