This project is part of the on-ground implementation of the Upper Logan Resilience project, an initiative supported by project partners Seqwater, in collaboration with Scenic Rim Regional Council.

The project will facilitate the control of weeds to restore native vegetation and creek bank resilience over the upper Teviot Brook to contribute to improved water quality and riparian health in the sub-catchment. The environmental benefit will include rehabilitation of areas featuring endangered Regional Ecosystem 12.8.19, ‘Montane shrubland on Cainozoic igneous rocks’. The proponent will maintain the weed control undertaken in the project to protect the stream bank into the future. They will use photo-points to monitor the weed control and riparian vegetation condition in the project area. 

The project will:

• deliver 0.28ha of weed control along 50m of Teviot Brook to protect  native vegetation, encourage native Re-vegetation to improve bank stability
• support the landholder’s effort to control cat’s claw along the creek.

The landholder will organise and work directly with the contractor to implement this project and SEQC will pay the contractor following satisfactory completion of the works.

This project will:

• improve water quality in the Logan catchment through a reduction in weeds and improved riparian vegetation condition and biodiversity connectivity along Teviot Brook
• increase landholders’ knowledge and skills in natural resource management
• facilitate the uptake of sustainable land management practices.
