- Caption from metadata for 535-1595-1: "Al Russell checks some of the remedial work done by the Skytrain construction project to protect Stoney Creek. When dirty, contaminated water from the Lougheed Highway was running off into the creek, crews built a culvert into riprap, and laid down absorbent pads to filter contaminents."
- Caption from metadata for 535-1595-2: "Jennifer Hechison surveys Stoney Creek from a footbridge and upgraded path built by the GVRD and conservationists. But the upgrades end below the Skytrain construction project, and Hechison says it's up to the public to remain vigilant that Skytrain live up to its commitments to protect the creek."
