- Caption from metadata for 535-1959-2: "Joan Carne (r) and Louise Towell, of the Byrne Creek Streamkeepers, examine a storm drain in an industrial area above the creek. The habitat faces constant pressure from businesses and homeowners who pour solvents, soaps and substances into the drains without thought to the consequences."
- Caption from metadata for 535-1959-3: "Nick Kvenich, one of the founding members of the Eagle Creek Streamkeepers, climbs through a fallen tree that is blocking a trail that runs alongside the creek, in a ravine below the Lake City industrial area. Although the tree will eventually be cleared by the GVRD, Kvenich says he prefers if such obstacles be left alone, as they would discourage people who might abuse the habitat."
- Caption from metadata for 535-1959-4: "Elmer Rudolf feeds a new batch of coho fry at the Sapperton Fish & Game Club's hatchery, near the Brunette River. The fry are normally fed by a timed conveyor belt, but that is supplemented by hand feedings to give the weaker fish a chance."
