In 1970, a small amount of oil pollution was found in the creek. [5] Oil pollution continued to be a problem for the creek into the 1990s, its source unknown. [6] High amounts of fecal contamination in the creek was blamed for the closure of three Rideau River beaches downstream (at Brantwood, Brighton and Strathcona Parks) in 1973.
