The station was set up under the CSIRO coastal monitoring programme in the 1940s and is sampled approximately monthly (weekly at some times) for temperature, salinity, dissolved oxygen, phosphate and nitrate. Since September 1997 the NSW EPA has collected the samples at this station. The current sampling regime is approximately monthly for 11 or 12 months per year.
