    Notes Access to site becoming increasingly challenging. Security have requested a municipal permit; the dam edge is surrounded by small wattle and gum trees that obscure visibility and the road network is obstructed by flowing water in a channel cut through the tar in one section and by a rock and tree barricade elsewhere.
