Abstract

Coral monitoring sites were set up on four locations in the vicinity of the Ports of Mackay and Hay Point prior to the 2006 Hay Point capital dredging program. These locations were Round Top Island, Victor Islet, Slade Islet and Keswick Island. Six sites of four permanently marked 20 m survey transects were set up at each location in the depth stratum of highest coral cover. Measures of benthic cover, coral health, sedimentation and coral recruitment were made along each transect.
