Jacksons Creek Summary

The litter trackers launched at Jacksons Creek remained within 700 m of the launch point. The flow in the creek was fairly low at the time of the launch however, there was a stormwater outflow pipe upstream. The journey of the litter trackers in this creek shows that if litter enters Jacksons Creek near the launch site, it will likely remain in the water system.
