The landholders have developed a viable, stud and commercial cattle business that exists in concert with thousands of waterbirds, including swans and brolgas that regularly nest in the wetland. Presently, they are applying several strategies to successfully reduce soil erosion on vulnerable slopes in the wetland catchment.
Landholders are continuing on-ground management.
DAF and NRM groups contributed to developing the case study which was completed in 2017.
(See case study)","Robert and Michele Lang sum up their approach to sustaining a viable grazing enterprise at Broadmeadows: “High performing, quiet cattle are essential in any beef cattle operation but particularly in a beef cattle operation as small as we have at Broadmeadows. We have found Charolais and Charbray cattle to be the most suitable breeds to enable us to achieve the aims and objectives of our enterprise.” And regarding ground cover—which has implications for condition of downslope wetlands: “Low pressure grazing and strategic fencing have minimised labour costs and the impact of dry-weather. Ongoing restoration of areas currently unusable, such as eroded gullies and salted areas, is essential for the future sustainability of our beef cattle operation at Broadmeadows.”",,"E20ABE47-3CE1-4227-B8C9-72745B56538B"

Bank scour is the removal of material from the surface of the creek bank as a direct result of stream flow. One cause of the removal of material from the bank is poor vegetation cover.
This project aims to stabilise a high water erosion risk area by vegetating 1.5ha of land and 200m of stream bank on a former cattle property in Luscombe, situated on the Albert River. Native vegetation using locally occurring species will be planted densely along the water’s edge and the lower, middle and upper bank. The native vegetation will also add value to the local biodiversity and support wildlife corridor connectivity.
Projects activities include:
- re-vegetation with native species of high water erosion risk area on Albert River.
Proposed project monitoring and maintenance:
- establish two photo-points and take ‘before and after’ photographs.

It is recommended that rehabilitation of these areas should incorporate fencing and riparian planting as well as works to stabilise areas prone to erosion.
This property fronts onto a 1.15km stretch of the Boyd Creek, a major tributary of the Upper Bremer River Catchment. This area has a major infestation of Chinese elm (Celtis sinensis) that dominates the riparian area. Chinese elm is an introduced species that prevents the regeneration of native species, most importantly essential ground cover species in riparian areas. This has resulted in the exposure of soils on banks to ongoing erosion and bank slumping, as well as poor soil stability. A major tree removal program has been implemented upstream of this property which has resulted in the complete removal of all vegetation along the bank.
This project proposes to control celtis without risking the remaining integrity of the creek banks. The control program will involve cutting, removing and poisoning all large trees, but will leave the stumps in place to stabilise banks. Further stabilisation will be carried out by planting more than 3000 ground covers, shrubs and trees along the river bank.
This project will:
- construct an extensive network of fencing along the length of the riparian area (1.15km) that will manage stock and protect 3.5ha of riparian area, improve water quality and reduce stock impact
- enhance similar works along the neighbouring property for another 1km and support a Traditional Owner project on the same property
- improve water quality in Boyd Creek and address the interrelated water and land management issues contributing to nutrients and sediment entering the Bremer River and Moreton Bay

Engineering works carried out in this project will prevent the further extension of a significant gully head that is contributing sediment directly into the Bremer River. During rainfall events this gully has significant flows that have caused considerable damage and loss of quality pasture land. The project aims to flood the gully head to reduce further erosion and trap sediment from entering the Bremer River.
The riparian area downstream of the works is currently infested with Chinese elm and camphor laurel, exposing banks and stream bed. Control of exotic species is essential to enhance existing natural riparian vegetation and ensure the success of re-vegetation works on the banks and toe of the gully.
Re-vegetation of the gully is essential for stabilising the toe and bank. The planting ratio is 80% sedges along the toe and up the side of steep banks in rows up to four high and approximately 50cm apart. The density of these will not only stabilise the soils but also reduce weed infestation in the long term. The remaining 20% are trees and shrubs with deep roots planted along the top of the outside banks of the riparian zone and more gently sloping banks. Due to the density of plantings, the high number of sedges used to stabilise these works has caused the cost of re-vegetation to be significantly higher than normal.
An extensive network of fencing along the length of the riparian area (1.3km) will exclude stock and protect 2.5ha of riparian area. Stock will also be excluded in the dam wall area. A small area up stream will provide a controlled water source for stock using a gravel entry point to reduce further damage to gully system.
Variations to the original dam design configuration now involve a second by-wash that takes low level flow back to the original gully and bunds, and drains to ensure that flood plain flows re-enter the Bremer in a stable manner.

Engineering works carried out in this project will prevent erosion of exposed cracking clay soils at the head of a gully that runs directly into the Bremer River.

The project aims to improve practices for water quality outcomes by treating 2000m² of these highly erodible soils with an organic product called eco-blanket, with perennial exotic pasture seed impregnated into organic matter. This will provide immediate cover and aid in the growth of pastures. Battering of the eroded areas will also occur to stabilise soils.

This property is in the upper catchment of the Bremer River. A large gully concentrates overland flow across grazing lands from a significant catchment area directly into the Bremer River at two sites on this property. The high velocity waters have resulted in a number of unstable eroding bends. The gully has limited vegetation cover and is primarily grassed. The aim of the works is to slow the velocity of water to reduce continued damage and soil loss.

Landholder",,,"2010-11-01","2011-03-31","This project addresses the objectives of the wider Upper Bremer Healthy Country Waterways Restoration Project. Working with the community within a defined focal area (Rosevale region) it aims to deliver on-ground works to improve water quality in local waterways and Moreton Bay.
This site has been identified within a high priority area in the Healthy Country Rehabilitation priorities for the Upper Bremer River document. There are a series of works planned for this property and neighbouring properties to be carried out in three phases.
It is recommended that rehabilitation of these areas should incorporate fencing of the Bremer River to maintain ground cover and stabilise soils and reduce sedimentation.
Works carried out in this project will involve the fencing of 1.5km of riparian vegetation along the Bremer River. The riparian area will be extended to 15m wide at most points. Controlled stock access will reduce the instances of bank erosion and improve ground cover within the riparian area. This will result in improved water quality and reduced sediment loss. Fencing will join previous riparian fenced areas.
Other works to be carried out include re-vegetation with local native species along 1.5km of riparian zone as well as 6ha weed control to enhance existing native vegetation and assist re-vegetation.
This project will be enhanced by riparian fencing and earthworks both downstream and upstream on Bremer River on neighbouring properties
This project will be enhanced by similar works across the community, aimed at reducing poor water quality and sediment loss within the catchment. The neighbouring landholder has completed works to fence and re-vegetate the riparian area across the river. ",,"SEQC1674","FC94A9BD-2E15-404E-86C9-FB7C2D2EBDBD"

1.5km of riparian area will be fenced to a distance ranging from 15m wide from the high bank mark. This will complement existing riparian fencing on the opposite bank protecting 7ha of riparian vegetation acting as a buffer for overland flow to prevent sediment running into the Bremer River. Weed management activities will be undertaken to improve native riparian vegetation.
Works will be enhanced by the installation of two leaky weirs to slow water flow, catching sediment and distributing it across the floodplain, and reinstating flow into a wetland.

The Bremer Healthy Country River restoration plan undertaken by Griffith University in partnership with the Healthy Country Project identified this project site as one of highest priority sites based on their sediment supply modelling from gully erosion.
This project is a key area in a landscape scale wetland reinstatement project that involves six properties in the northern end of the Bremer focal area. Works have already been carried out on two adjoining properties upstream and the involvement of two properties downstream has been negotiated. All landholders are enthusiastic about the benefits the project will provide. These projects offer a variety of works that will provide a showcase for the Healthy Country program.
This is the only project to date where hillslope erosion and flood plain process are being linked and managed as one unit as a result of the healthy country project.
Area 1 Hillslope erosion management
The hillslope will undergo contour reshaping to direct concentrated flows to a more stable location. Overland flow has previously directed run-off to a head-cut running perpendicular to a naturally stabilising gully. Works will be enhanced by land type fencing and pasture renovation with 79ha of exotic perennial pastures sown to reduce run-off. This will allow the landholder to manage stock grazing to maintain ground cover.
Sediment run-off will be further reduced by the erection of exclusion fencing, which includes a major gully system that is undergoing natural repair and also encloses an endangered regional ecosystem (RE = 12.3.3) encouraging natural regeneration.
Area 2 Wetland reinstatement
The main works will be the construction of a dam to close an eroding gully that currently drains the wetland directly into the Bremer River. The closure will occur at the top edge of the wetland and the original wetland overland flow pattern through a series of wetland communities will be restored. Similar works will continue on the neighbouring property to maintain wetland connectivity across the landscape. ",,"SEQC1647","566BFF45-237C-4399-8977-C6D23FA3365A"

With funding provided through the Australian Government’s Caring for our Country program, via Greening Australia, SEQ Catchments is providing support to landholders to help reduce the fragmentation of habitat and native vegetation and contribute to more ecological sustainable land management by reducing threats caused by weeds, unmanaged stock access and inappropriate fire regimes.
The project area is the riparian zone of Little Britain Creek and has vegetation mapped as RE 12.3.3/12.3.7 (Eucalyptus tereticornis woodland to open forest and fringing riparian forest on alluvial plains), which is listed as endangered. This project will build on previous works undertaken by the landholder with the project completing fencing to manage stock access to the riparian zone and undertake weed control.
This project will improve connectivity and enhance the condition of approximately 15ha of native riparian vegetation through the following activities:
- construction of 1.1km of permanent fencing and the establishment of one off-stream watering point to protect 14ha of riparian habitat from stock and allow natural regeneration
- strategic weed control of environmental weeds, primarily lantana over 15ha.
The landholder is committed to monitoring and maintenance of project outcomes including:
- establishing four standard photo-points and taking ‘before and after’ photographs to monitor changes in habitat condition and natural regeneration over time
- ongoing selective weed control and sustainable grazing and fire management practices to maintain ecological values of the native vegetation communities. ",,"SEQC1904","A111E8DD-14A2-4152-8585-C762F0CC1ADE"

The downstream section of the site consists of a near-vertical bank, approximately 9 m in height. Each of the sections are approximately 120 m in length and are devoid of vegetation. The site abuts a floodplain that sits approximately 3 – 5 m above the inset floodplain immediately upstream of the site.
Streambank erosion at the site has resulted in a high, vertical and unstable bank at the downstream end and a high, steep/irregular bank upstream end. Channel widening and straightening processes have resulted in major sediment mobilisation (approximately 280,000 m^3 between 2013-2019) and over 130 m of bank retreat and subsequent loss of agricultural land. The current steep/vertical bank morphology will likely limit future vegetation establishment.
In the absence of management interventions, ongoing erosion at the site may result in a range of impacts, including:
-Water quality – Increased suspended sediment and nutrient levels will adversely impact on water supplies (including at the Kenilworth town supply offtake downstream), the Great Barrier Reef Marine Park, the Great Sandy Strait and instream river health values.
-Environmental values – Ongoing degradation of the Mary River, including the riparian vegetation zone, which may limit physical habitat of the Mary River Cod, Lungfish, Mary River Turtle and significant frog species including the Giant Barred Frog.
-Agricultural land and electricity infrastructure.
The recommended works for the Carter site include:
-Reprofiling the bank to a gradient of 1V:3H (vertical distance:horizontal distance) which can allow the establishment of native vegetation.
-Installation of rock revetment at the upstream end of the works.
-Installation of pile fields at the toe of bank.",,,"76B2FAFD-87BF-458C-AEE6-E02FE5415BF7"

The pH had been consistently increasing over five years as a result of bloom after bloom of BGA. Poor water quality can reduce the uses for the water as well as the times when it can be released.
Funding amount for this project is provided on an annual basis.","The nutrient levels began to reduce in the first week and continued to do so. The increased growth of diatoms reduced the pH of the water over several weeks. This is unexpected from an algal growth that is commonly associated with pH increase. The reason the pH reduced is due to the associated increase in the higher trophic levels of zooplankton, invertebrates, macroinvertebrates, gastropods, eels, fish etc. The addition of CO2 from animal respiration would reduce pH.
As well as the changes to the concentrations of ammonia and nitrate, there was a change to the ratio of ammonia and nitrate. Initially there was little to no nitrate in the system and this reflects a lower level of dissolved oxygen, and a limited activity of aerobic bacteria to nitrify ammonia (NH3) into nitrate (NO3-).
Over time, the clarity of water has increased as the types of algae grown in the water have changed from suspended algae into benthic or periphyton algae (particularly diatoms) that grow in biofilms on surfaces in the water (e.g. twigs, leaves, reeds and rushes). The increased water clarity assists in UV light reaching deeper into the water and reducing pathogenic bacteria.

De Moylens Lagoon was chosen for the project after consulting with local stakeholders, including the natural resource management group, Reef Catchments.
De Moleyns Lagoon is located in an existing reserve of approximately 60ha, near the township of Mirani and is part of the Sandy Creek sub-catchment (see maps).
The Sandy Creek sub-catchment hosts an existing Paddock to Reef program water quality monitoring project which has the support and involvement of the local cane industry.
Although the wetland is now a modified natural system due to development activities within the landscape, the site remains an important nature refuge within the broader catchment.
The catchment area above the wetland is dominated by sugar cane production and contains some existing urban areas including an old landfill (now a transfer station) and a number of proposed housing developments.
Rehabilation works carried out included:
- weed control and sediment removal
- revegetation
- water quality monitoring
- fire break management.
Spraying has been used to control weeds such as lantana and giant rats tail grass. Other areas dominated by para grass and guinea grass were slashed first and are be the focus of improved fire management to encourage increased regeneration of native vegetation species that will reduce the light and reduce weed infestation.
Some of the areas slashed and sprayed have been revegetated with local native species grown from seed and sourced from the region.","In June 2013, DAFF visited De Moleyns Lagoon as part of a training workshop aimed at providing information on the benefits and management of wetlands within farming systems. The values and functions of the wetland were discussed along with maintenance and revegetation.
Significant time was spent discussing initiatives farmers could implement to reduce impacts on wetlands. Farmers learnt that wetlands such as De Moleyns Lagoon played an important role in improving water quality captured from many farms across the catchment and played a vital role in water quality improvement.",,"6EE9DFBF-73C4-4F84-A1C8-1006283372BB"

Strategic research has explained how, where, and most importantly, why, these environmentally relevant changes have occurred across the East Trinity site. The remediation of the site has progressed to the point that eco-tourism activities are undertaken by the Traditional Owners; the Mandingalbay Yidinji people.
In May 2000 the Queensland State Government purchased the 774ha East Trinity property to address the severe acid sulfate soil issues and protect the green backdrop to Cairns. The State Government scientists charged with the acid sulfate soil remediation devised a novel and untested Lime-Assisted Tidal Exchange (LATE) treatment strategy, which progressively and cautiously replaced the existing acidified freshwater environment with a managed tidal wetland system—ironically, by modifying and managing the tidal gate infrastructure that contributed to the problem when the site was developed for sugar cane production in the 1970s. Strategic application of hydrated lime (Ca(OH)2) to buffer incoming tidal water and, when necessary outgoing tidal water, was an essential control mechanism to prevent off-site acid and metal discharge during the active phase of LATE.
Changes in soil, water, vegetation and biota will continue to be monitored as the site progresses under the passive LATE management strategy, where controlled tidal exchange alone manages the acid sulfate soils.","Lime-Assisted Tidal Exchange (LATE) has transformed the East Trinity landscape while the biogeochemical understanding of LATE has transformed the legacy broad acre acid sulfate soil remediation paradigm.
The remediation at East Trinity involves the controlled re-introduction of daily tidal exchange, with the strategic addition of hydrated lime to enhance the natural acid buffering capacity of sea water. LATE keeps the soil wet and neutralises some of the acidity, which stimulates the proliferation of naturally occurring sulfate and iron reducing bacteria. Studies have shown that the bulk of the remediation at East Trinity was due to the microbial and chemical reduction of iron and sulfate. Insitu bicarbonate production, a byproduct of this process, further neutralises soil acidity and promotes the beneficial microbial weathering of acid minerals. The process becomes self-propelling toward a stable, neutral and healthy soil-wetland system with good water quality.",,"8362D32B-A9EE-4F32-A53E-75E7DD6C1667"

The landholder undertaking this project has recently established a Koala Nature Refuge over their property and has an agreed management plan with the Department of Environment and Heritage Protection. With funding from the Koala Nature Refuge Program (KNRP), the landholder is engaging a contractor to plant 2300 koala food and shelter trees (including 5% Melaleuca irbyana) within 4.5ha of the Nature Refuge and to maintain these trees for five years. The proposed 4.5ha planting area is predominantly clear of trees and shrubs, except for a few established trees (mostly around the edges) and some saplings from a previous planting.
This project supports the planting of a further 450 appropriate native plants in scattered patches within the broader planting area. The aim is that at maturity, each patch will have a mixed canopy of swamp tea-tree (Melaleuca irbyana) and appropriate emergent tall trees. Species composition will follow that recommended in the Planting Note and Species for Regional Ecosystem 12.3.3c Melaleuca irbyana low open forest or thicket developed by Lockyer Valley Regional Council. The planting will increase connectivity between existing trees and the KNRP planting rows.
Project activities include:
- engaging a contractor to design and prepare approximately 9 x 40m² planting patches and to plant 450 appropriate local native plants (as per Planting Note)
- engaging a contractor to undertake 12 months’ maintenance of the plantings
- undertaking boundary fence repairs to ensure cattle are prevented from accessing the planting area

The Rainworth Creek starts below Mount Cassilis and drops around 66m over its 18.5km length. Wedderburn has almost 30% (5km) of Rainworth Creek that flows through it. As the creek comes to the flood plain it forms a wetland that spreads and becomes slow flowing, irrigating pastures and providing abundance for wildlife.
The secondary creeks in this project include Cairdbeign and Sandy Creeks. Cairdbeign Creek drops around 175m over its 20.4km length. The property has 1.5km of creek that passes through it in the south-eastern corner. The Sandy Creek flows into the Cairdbeign Creek, merges on the property and increases the overall area and significance of the wetlands. The Sandy Creek is mostly wetland on Wedderburn. All of these creek systems are fast flowing and carry sediment from degraded areas that flow into the wetlands from neighbouring properties that practice conventional grazing and repeatedly burn areas. The three creeks all run into the Nogoa River catchment.
The project area covers 1000ha of mostly native pastures and wetland ecosystems. The project includes 12.8km of riparian and wetland fencing with 7.8km of poly pipe and 14 new watering points to supply water to stock. The new troughs and poly pipe will be extended on from the original watering system. It will enable the management of the project area and provide the opportunity of conserving 500ha of ephemeral wetland as well as improving the highly degraded waterways. It will also reduce the erosion and future degradation of higher ground on 245ha. OG2.2, OG2.3, OG3.2, OG3.3, 11.3, OG14.5
The biodiversity of the wetlands will be able to flourish through reduced sediment and nutrient run-off flowing into the Rainworth, Sandy and Cairdbeign creeks. Gully erosion and head cutting will be stopped and degradation repaired by the new management system. The project area is more than 1000ha and will be able to be managed once completed, creating improved ground cover, reduced bogging on wetland, grassed up overgrazed areas and the utilisation of under-grazed areas. This property’s whole ecosystem, from the high to the low wetlands, will be improved. A 17km riparian corridor and a 650ha of riparian and wetland ecosystem are being managed.
The project will have a number of benefits to the environment including reducing sediment and improving water quality, improving wetland health, reduced slumping of the river and creek banks, increased ground cover and land condition of the riparian areas and less erosion caused by stock impacting on the banks and riparian areas.
The stocks use the higher areas as refuge from wet ground on the southern end, western side, as well as a few smaller high areas of the property, and this has subsequently led to erosion. Resting these areas will recover stressed grass plants and create mulch on bare ground, resulting in the soil being able to store more water. The large areas of soil being washed into wetland over time would be reduced. The wetlands will have controlled stock access and this will greatly reduce the time an animal spends on the wetlands.
By fencing and adding new water to the area to the north of the block the previously under-utilised corridor areas away from the Rainworth Creek (north-eastern corner) will be utilised. Consequently, the cattle impact on the already eroded creek will also be reduced. These benefits will lead to a much more balanced environment.
The area to the north-west of the block is under-utilised and would provide a much better area for stock during wet time, minimising the damage to the flood plain wetland. The soil type is significantly different in this area from the soft black soil of the flood plain. The fencing out of this area would be preventative to stop the repeat of the high ground degradation on the southern end.
Landholders plan to manage a strategic grazing program and will also undertake training with Grazing BestPrac for property planning, grazing management and feed budgeting.",,,"C7E159B2-2086-44ED-A884-872BBF80C0A4"

The 281.86ha property is located in the upper Warrill Creek catchment, which has its headwaters in the Main Range National Park. In 2013, the volume and velocity of run-off from a 24-hour major storm event on Mt Castle on the Main Range, destroyed the Claytons Gully culvert on Gap Creek immediately adjacent to the Harvey property. The run-off also destroyed riparian fencing, stripped topsoil from the riparian areas down to a gravel base, and substantially widened Gap Creek down and beyond its confluence with Warrill Creek and Sandy Creek. Much of the natural vegetation along the creek was destroyed and top soil lost from adjacent cultivations.
Substantial earthworks have been undertaken in and around the project area to repair and rehabilitate the riparian area and adjoining cultivation.
This project complements and builds on the stream-bank restoration work undertaken to date by the landholder. The project will clear 300m of flood damaged fencing and debris, reinstate 305m of riparian fencing, plant 2000 vetiver plants along the toe of the bank and reseed the area with pasture grasses to help stabilise the remediated stream-banks.

The property suffered significant topsoil loss and scouring of the cultivation during heavy rainfall 2010-2011. Uncontrolled run-off which broke out across the cultivation was exacerbated by siltation and woody debris blocking the existing flood-runner drainage line between the cultivation and the creek.
Opening the flood-runner will reduce sediment transport from the cultivation in moderate flows. Works will consist of removing silt and excess woody debris, while only minimally disturbing the remnant vegetation. These works will also improve the likelihood that the remnant will be protected from adverse management practices. In addition, surveys will monitor the condition of the vegetation and collect information to inform future re-vegetation activities of this endangered ecosystem.

The project will involve two adjoining properties on separate drainage lines at the head of Oaky creek catchment. Both landholders have agreed on the proposed engineering designs for this project.
The gully on this property has two major head-cuts which have retreated significantly over the last year. Engineering works will prevent further erosion occurring on this site. Two leaky dam structures will be constructed in the gully to flood head-cuts at full supply. A high flow by-wash will deliver water into the adjoining property where similar structures will be constructed.
The landholder will implement improved management practices for soil health by fencing off the area to reduce the impacts of continuous grazing. In addition, grazing management will be improved by splitting the current paddock into two smaller paddocks to allow for rotation of stock. A water point will be assembled to provide water for the new paddock.
This project will be enhanced by similar works across the catchment on neighbouring properties which aim to improve water quality and reduce sediment loss within the catchment.
The following actions are planned:

This project aims to increase ground cover and soil condition to reduce run-off over 61ha of grazing land through paddock subdivision to facilitate rotational grazing. Rotational grazing is proven to more evenly distribute grazing pressure and thus improve pasture utilisation, increase soil carbon levels and water retention, improve pasture condition (including increased native pasture composition). This will result in both improved environmental and production outcomes. The environmental benefit will include areas featuring endangered Regional Ecosystem 12.3.3 ‘Eucalyptus tereticornis woodland to open forest on alluvial plains’ and other significant Regional Ecosystems 12.9-10.7/12.9-10.2.
The project will also undertake 2.3ha of weed control in riparian areas, as well as undertake earthworks, fencing and re-vegetation to reduce stream bank and gully erosion.
The project involves:
- installing 1.3km of fencing to control stock access to an eroding gully and sub-dividing an existing paddock into three smaller paddocks
- installing a dam and diversion banks to control run-off into two eroding gullies and providing stock water for rotational grazing

The landholder of this property has been involved early in the program, attending field days and information sessions, and is keen to progress works on her own property as she sees opportunities to positively contribute to a reduction of sediment load in the broader Knapps Creek.
In this project, the landholder will put in divisional fencing, two off-stream watering points (gravity fed) and rehabilitate small, but multiple head-cut erosion sites in the main gully traversing the property. This gully is one of the major feeder gullies into Knapps Creek. Additionally, the project will facilitate weed control on the property.
The works will be undertaken though a whole farm approach, with the landholder committing to improving pasture production through weed reduction (specifically giant rat’s tail grass) and grazing management. The landholder recognises that continuous grazing is having an impact on soil health. Grazing management will involve divisional fencing for rotational grazing allowing paddocks to be rested, improving the proportion of desirable species and reducing weed species. Additional water points will be required to provide water for two of the new paddocks.
Over a period of a year, the landholder will rehabilitate a number of small head cut gully erosion sites by placement of rocks, using the leaky weir principle, at the head of the erosion site. Additionally, one corner of the property will be fenced off to allow for controlled grazing.

The project will employ weed control activities in a wetland area at the estuary of Bells Creek. This will improve habitat and water quality bordering areas of increased urban development.
The area contains known occurrences of native ‘water mouse’ (Xeromys myoides) nests and Aboriginal middens cultural heritage sites. Contractors and associated project staff will participate in information and awareness training sessions to identify these important locations.
The restoration area is located on the western edge of the Pelican Waters development and is approximately 17.4ha. It borders reserve land already rehabilitated by the Sunshine Coast Regional Council. A partnership has been negotiated with the local golf course to allow for vehicular access to all sections of the reserve, allowing for increased weed management capabilities.
The works will be undertaken in estuarine/palustrine wetlands, including the following Regional Ecosystems (REs):
12.1.1 - Casuarina glauca open forest on margins of marine clay plains (endangered)
12.1.2 - Saltpan vegetation including grassland and herbland on marine clay plants (least concern)

Reef Catchments Ltd",100000.00,,"2016-03","2018-03","Council and Reef Catchments Ltd have partnered in a project to partly offset urban pollutant discharges against improvements in management of neighbouring sugarcane farms.
It is a two year project and engages with a 150ha cane farm operator in the Bakers Creek catchment. It focuses on shifting a ‘C – Conventional’ class management practice for soil and nutrient management, to an ‘A – Aspirational’ class practice. This project is being managed by Reef Catchments.
Improving on-farm soil and nutrient management practices as part of the mechanism has been found to represent a very cost effective approach for Council. The cost or removing 1kg of sediment from a farm via the improvement in these practices is valued at $1.50 - $4.00/kg compared to roughly $20/kg in a regional wetland.
An economic analysis of the cost to adopt A class practices on model farms in the Mackay Whitsunday region was undertaken in 2011 as part of the Project Catalyst initiative. This economic analysis highlighted that irrespective of property size, once landholders had adopted ‘A’ class practices, they were more profitable and economically viable. This indicates that landholders are very unlikely to revert back to the old practice once they have made the transition to the new ‘A’ class practice.
This project received significant support from Council and the Urban Development Institute of Australia (UDIA). Essentially this approach was seen to prevent large quantities of pollutants from entering our waterways, for significantly less cost than the WSUD approach.",,,"3DDC031E-EA17-462D-88BE-E463C5B5843A"

The WHA and adjacent areas also provide habitat for a number of EPBC listed species and communities.
With funding from the Australian Government, SEQ Catchments is working with community groups and private and public landholders and community groups to take on-ground action to restore and enhance native vegetation, improve wildlife habitats, increase connectivity and resilience, and restore ecosystem function.
This project contributes to the above overall program goals through supporting the landholder to undertake more ecological sustainable land management by reducing threats caused by weeds. The property adjoins the WHA and draft habitat mapping indicates several EPBC listed species may inhabit the property, which contains remnant vegetation comprising several ‘of concern’ Regional Ecosystems (RE), e.g. RE 12.8.16 (narrow-leaved ironbark and forest red gum woodland) and RE 12.8.4 (hoop pine rainforest).
This project will improve connectivity and enhance the condition of native vegetation through the following activities: strategic weed control, primarily targeting lantana to encourage natural regeneration and improve habitat values over 10ha terrestrial vegetation.
The landholder is committed to monitoring and the maintenance of project outcomes including:

The ‘of concern’ Regional Ecosystem (RE) 12.8.16 (narrow-leaved ironbark and forest red gum woodland) is dominant, with Res 12.8.14, 12.8.3 and 12.8.4 also present. Along the creek, vegetation historically consisted of flooded gum open forest (RE 12.3.2) with elements of ‘endangered’ gallery rainforest (notophyll vine forest) on alluvial plains (RE 12.3.1), and some regrowth of this vegetation community still occurs.
The southern property contains regenerating hoop pine rainforest (RE 12.8.4) and ‘complex notophyll vine forest’ (RE 12.8.3).
The landholder is committed to monitoring and maintaining project outcomes, including:
- establishing four standard photo-points and taking ‘before and after’ photographs to monitor changes in habitat condition and natural regeneration over time
- carrying out ongoing selective weed control and sustainable management practices to maintain ecological values of the native vegetation communities
- enhancing biodiversity in the Upper Albert River catchment by improving the condition and connectivity of riparian and Gondwana habitat in the Darlington area through weed control and re-vegetation
- implementing weed control on 31.9ha habitat, including 1.9ha riparian zone
- planting 1.4ha with appropriate native gallery rainforest riparian species.",,"SEQC1983","28D8FE72-7FBB-41D6-8503-BF3E91BCC177"

Less invasive weeds were left to act as a cover crop until the native species planted in last semesters’ revegetation project, took hold. In-kind weed treatment by Council staff was sought to target weeds of national significance. They also treated species which posed a threat to neighbouring landholders.
After initial installation of erosion control cocologs and earth works at Kinka Wetland project site, it was decided that direct sowing of locally sourced native seed would assist in the recolonisation of the now stabilised bare areas. A seed bank of specific endemic plants found at Kinka is needed to continue this revegetation technique. Direct seeding activity was less effective this semester due to a lack of seed and heavy rainfall before and during Cyclone Marcia washing seed and topsoil aside. Time will only tell of this seedings’ success rate.
An open day aimed at educating the wider community on the ecological values of the Kinka Wetlands was held to encourage community ownership from the encroaching suburban developments and to encourage passive recreation activities like birdwatching and bush walking rather than illegal dumping and motorbike riding. It also provided a forum to showcase the restoration work of the collaboration of community groups at Kinka, reducing sedimentation and improving habitat for shorebirds and waders as well as passage for fish between fresh and salt water. The guided walk, guest speakers, face painting, children’s interactive storytelling and shuttle bus service attracted families and many public who had not been to the wetland before.
This project is part of a much larger plan to enhance the value of the area for locals and tourists.
Funding also provided the opportunity to bring an internationally renowned expert to a regional community group to talk on higher level issues to an audience of professional, experienced and self-motivated participants in local bird surveying for ecosystem health benchmarking. Feedback from participants was grateful to have met Roger Jaensch who has been involved with local research on the Capricorn Yellow Chat, shorebirds and wetland waders.
Topics discussed at the Shorebirds and Wader Workshop were around threats and the national and international management of the EAA flyway which shorebirds use to migrate vast distances and stopover on along the Capricorn Coast.","Forming a working group of key stakeholders enabled a project to be developed and undertaken with volunteer labour and multiple in-kind sources.

The greater Lagoons Creek Catchment encompasses nearly 600ha, of which 20% is urban land use. Increased urban development and agricultural farming practices have impacted the watercourse through vegetation clearing, channelisation and straightening. These impacts have resulted in sediment deposition, exotic weed proliferation and subsequently, fragmented the creek into sections of discontinuous waterway. Loss of instream connectivity impacts aquatic species migration. Stage 1 (2014-15) created a rock lined open channel drain, three rock-ridge fishways and a riparian corridor linking fresh and marine waters. Stage 2 (2015-16) has built upon these works, permanently linking existing freshwater lagoons to Pioneer River through the re-creation of a paleochannel and the installation of two wetlands, three fishways and the extension of the vegetative corridor. Installation of multiple fishways at the freshwater/marine water interface is of vital importance to the life cycles of many native migratory fish species (e.g. tarpon) opening 545ha of suitable breeding ground for native migratory species is of significant environmental, recreational and commercial value to the region. In addition, works will not only improve stormwater quality, however will provide appropriate the instream environment for fish migration and improve the environmental and aesthetic values of lower Lagoons Creek.
Post works fishway assessments undertaken by Catchment Solutions revealed significant migration rates with up to 5764 fish successfully ascending the Lagoons Creek full width rock ramp and culvert baffle fishway. Important recreational and commercial fish included: tarpon (Megalops cyprinoides) and fork-tail catfish (Arius graffei), other native species included: empire gudgeon (Hypseleotris compressa), bony bream (Nematalosa erebi), eastern rainbowfish (Melanotaenia splendida), fly-specked hardyhead (Craterocephalus stercus), Rendahl's catfish (Porochilus rendahli), Agassiz's glassfish (Ambassis agassizii) and Hyrtl's tandan (Neosilurus hyrtlii).

Lagoon Creek is surrounded by sugarcane. The lagoon has been subject to long-term, severe infestations of aquatic and floating weeds, especially water hyacinth, resulting in a deterioration of water quality in the lagoon as a result of nutrient loading and loss of dissolved oxygen. Focus of the on-ground works included an aquatic weed removal trial using natural flushing and mechanical weed removal.
To facilitate natural flushing, various pre-treatments were trialled, including breaking the binding of the weed mat to the bank by spraying with conventional herbicide and loosening the binding of the mat itself by aerial application of a brine solution.
Excavators were used to clear weed from bottleneck areas. An aquatic weed harvester was also used. The harvester worked in conjunction with the excavator, which lifted the weed from the water and stockpiled it on the bank. Edge spraying with herbicide increased the efficiency of the weed harvester as less time was spent dragging the weed mat from the banks. Immediately after harvesting, boat-based spraying was required to treat weed clumps that the harvester had not been able to shift, mainly because the weed was snagged on submerged logs.
The project:

Freshwater creeks, lagoons and wetlands have been particularly impacted by urban development that occurs in highly fertile areas valued for agriculture. These aquatic systems benefit a wide variety of fauna by providing critical refuge habitats. These wetland habitats also treat and improve the quality of water flowing from the terrestrial landscape before entering into estuarine and near shore marine habitats. The Little McCreadys Creek rehabilitation project is one of five priority implementation projects under Councils voluntary mechanism for stormwater quality management.
Council has partnered with Reef Catchments to improve the quality of the water entering the Great Barrier Reef lagoon from coastal urban development centres in the region as well as improve native habitat connectivity in these areas.
A rehabilitation project on Little McCreadys Creek is currently underway. Little McCreadys Creek is a 720 metre long, degraded and straightened creek channel. It has lost nearly all of its habitat value due to removal of riparian/in-stream habitat and invasion of weeds.
Project aims include:
- improve and treat water quality runoff from built up urban areas and improve the quality of water flowing into estuarine and Great Barrier Reef habitats
- increase in the amount of habitat available for biodiversity including the provision for fish passage
- local costed out example of naturalised/vegetated waterways versus mown swales in the provision of water quality and ecosystem services, as well as ongoing maintenance and operational costs
- improved visual amenity of the local area, and opportunities to engage with the community
- re-establish riparian vegetation and ecosystem service values in the McCreadys Creek catchment, including channel stability
- increased coordination between terrestrial and aquatic land managers and improve the knowledge of local government to better manage naturalised waterways that drain urban areas.

An important element of this project is to develop a Property Management Plan with the landholder and develop a project that will demonstrate to other peri-urban landholders in the area on how to sustainably manage their grazing enterprise whilst improving the condition of their riparian area.
This project contributes to the above overall program goals through supporting the landholder to undertake more ecological sustainable land management by reducing threats caused by weeds and managing grazing by stock.
The riparian area of the property contains a range of native vegetation types at various stages of maturity and subject to varying degrees of weed infestation. The native vegetation is primarily eucalyptus forest including Queensland blue gum, silky oak, weeping bottlebrush, a few dry rainforest species and a grassy understory.
This project will improve the resilience of approximately 3ha of riparian native vegetation along 350m of stream bank through:
- carrying out strategic weed control, primarily targeting lantana, castor oil, camphor laurel and cat’s claw vine to encourage natural regeneration and improve habitat values
- constructing 200m fencing to control stock access to riparian area.
The landholder is committed to monitoring and maintenance of project outcomes including:
- establishing three standard photo-points and taking ‘before and after’ photographs to monitor changes in land condition and natural regeneration over time
- carrying out ongoing selective weed control, fire and sustainable grazing management practices to maintain ecological values of the native vegetation communities over two years.",,"SEQC2141","BACBE0E5-71C1-48B7-9318-77850EDB23FC"

The McCreadys creek south regional wetlands will form part of this regional approach to urban stormwater quality management and be a key pilot study within Councils voluntary mechanism for stormwater quality management.
This approach has a number of advantages:
- reduced loss of developable land i.e. developers can develop more land and thus increase profits. The increase in land sales will likely pay for contribution to regional systems
- WSUD assets are designed and built under Council control. This provides Council with more control over the implementation and ultimately on-going management of assets related to the SPP. This also reduces the risk that Council will take ownership of poor assets that will become a costly maintenance burden
- potentially less distributed number of assets to manage, easing pressures on Council resources
- potentially a more cost effective implementation method, whereby wetlands can be located in existing flood plain zones or natural wetland areas where earthworks requirements are minimal and development cannot occur. This can potentially provide greater environmental outcomes with a more cost effective use of funds

Three community displays/awareness days have taken place and articles about shorebirds have been featured in two coastal newspapers.
Anticipated outcomes: currently, local residents and tourists visit this area for recreation, exercise, dog walking, and bird watching. Since there is not one clearly defined track, walkers are inclined to wander into the foreshore area. The resultant impact on the area will be further compaction leading to degradation and erosion of this area.
As well as defining the walking track itself, the project will lay down an appropriate walking track surface, place interpretive signage to highlight Indigenous cultural sites, and explain the local flora, fauna and birdlife.
This particular site is adjacent to the Great Sandy Strait Ramsar listed wetland and is also within the Great Sandy Marine Park, Conservation Park Zone. Further, the site adjoins a designated saltmarsh, shorebird roosting and feeding area which is currently being monitored by Cooloola Coastcare with the assistance of Wetland Care Australia. The use of dog leads will be encouraged through community awareness days and the distribution of dog leads will be supplied by Burnett Mary Regional Group.",,,"0FD8A4B3-E95F-4B4D-88DB-A68099A17B85"

The landholder on this property has made an expression of interest to undertake remedial works on their property. Since taking over this property the landholder has improved the grazing land management practice in order to reduce erosion and impacts of stock. It is recommended that immediate works are to be carried out on two retreating gullies that are losing significant amounts of sediment during each rain event.
Rehabilitation of this area will consist of two sites to reduce sediment loads.
Site 1
Engineering works will consist of a dam constructed to reduce overland flow entering into the affected gully. Water will be redirected and discharged into a stable drainage line which will be fenced off by the landholder to create a new paddock. Cattle will be allowed access to this paddock periodically to improve stabilisation and allow for improved pasture to establish. Two small stock watering points will be constructed in the drainage line to reduce velocity of water and prevent head cuts.
Site 2
Significant overland flows running into a steep embankment have caused an eroding gully 10m deep. A number of diversion banks will be constructed to redirect the water across the paddock and render in a stable drainage line along the road. Gullies are to be fenced off and rehabilitated with pasture.

The property is currently used for grazing and consists of one 300ha paddock of mostly native pastures.
Stock access water from the stream, which is causing significant erosion on its banks. This stream runs directly into Oaky Creek. Works proposed for this project will include land type fencing, exclusion fencing and erosion control.
The landholder will implement improved management practices for soil health outcomes by fencing off the main stream to reduce the impact of continuous grazing. The landholder has agreed to exclude stock from this area to allow for the rejuvenation of native vegetation. Two off-stream water points are to be established to assist in stream rehabilitation.
Engineering works carried out in this project will prevent gully heads from developing further through a number of diversion banks and the construction of a dam. Water will be redirected over the floodplain and discharged through a stable drainage line. A crossing will be cut to assist fence construction across the steep stream banks and allow for a stable stock route. Grazing management will also be improved by splitting the current paddock into three smaller paddocks to allow rotation of stock.
A significant monitoring program will be conducted by the SEQC water monitoring team.

The project team believes the only solution to the feral pig problem is a long-term program of trapping and poisoning, so that other pigs do not simply replace the culled population.
Best results are obtained by first gaining the confidence of the animals instead of chasing them with guns and dogs. Grain feeding them prior to poisoning works well. Heavily used areas are suitable as feeding sites.
The project will take this approach:
- Take the necessary time to concentrate pigs in certain areas. In sugar cane areas the pigs usually concentrate on certain cane blocks that grow their favourite variety. However, in the cattle country of Tandora, they are just as likely to go to other parts of the land.
- The non-tidal islands in the river require a different approach. Here, fresh water sites are the sensible places for feeding stations; however, none of them are accessible by boat. The only solution is to create feeding stations closer to accessible areas, so that heavy, soaked feeding grain does not have to be carried long distances.

This project aims to improve the ecological condition of the creeks and tributaries within the Cooloola North Parkland and Cooloola Grassy Parklands, which are wetland connectivity pathways between Great Sandy North Cooloola National Park and the Great Sandy Ramsar Wetland. The invasive pasture grass, Setaria sphacelata (South African Pigeon Grass) will be managed by chemical, mechanical and manual control to reduce the duff layer of dead setaria, and the aggressive spreading and choking nature of live setaria on the banks and within the actual creek lines to ‘suppress the activity of setaria in favour of natural heathland community plants’.
The project will also control para grass in Marian Creek, Cooloola Cove via the engagement of Gympie Regional Council’s (GRC) preferred contractor, thereby reinforcing partnerships with the land manager.
A weed suppression/biodiversity connectivity community workshop conducted by Brush Turkey Enterprises will be held over one day to reinforce the work and communicate and engage with the broader community. Trial Site 1 will be extended a further 120m (total length of Trial Site 1 will be 220m) and Trial Site 2 will be extended a further 150m downstream (total length of Trial Site 2 will be 250m). The Revive our Creeks project will hold weekly community ‘weeding bees’ to suppress reinvasion of setaria at the original Trial sites while allowing for native species recruitment.
With extended project site area on both sides of the creek, an extra weekly working bee will be introduced.
GRC will continue to target Class II, III weeds and pinus elliotti that occur on its wetland reserves, therefore it is necessary to target the immediate threat of invasive pasture grasses in and adjacent to wetlands and waterways. Cooloola Coastcare will continue its Great Sandy Strait-Cooloola Coast representation on the GRC Weeds and Pests Committee, to provide input and report on local condition improvements and partnership opportunities. This will include follow-up para grass control at Trial Site 3 (Billabong Park near Woolworths) and two other waterholes downstream of the Billabong along Marian Creek.

Both areas fall within the Buttha Creek catchment flowing into Great Sandy Strait.
Wildlings – ranging from large seed trees to small juveniles – occur in a band up to 40m deep around the boundary of 810 Cowra. The proposal involves wildling eradication using a positrack mulcher while minimising damage to surrounding vegetation. Use of the positrack mulcher will be complemented later by burning the area to suppress wildling seedlings and promote regeneration of fire-adapted wallum and other Australian plant species across the area.
The treatment area around the perimeter of 810 Cowra is approximately 20ha in size, with varying densities of wildlings ranging from thick to scattered.
809 Cowra has scattered wildlings around the boundary. These are suitable for treatment by herbicide stem injection (glyphosate) and brushcutter for wildlings less than 15cm diameter at breast height. Mulcher treatment is not suitable for this area because of a public road that runs along the southern boundary and also because of the scattered occurrence of wildlings.
Wildlings larger than 1m high will be completely removed from the project area by mulching individual trees in 810 Cowra and by herbicide stem injection and limited chainsaw felling in 809 Cowra.
Eight large trees will be felled in 809 Cowra within one tree height of Tinnanbar Road pavement. Temporary spotters and traffic control will be used during the process.
Damage to surrounding vegetation during mulcher and manual felling operations will be minimised.",,,"17EEF637-4574-45A8-805E-5A42BE7C817C"

FIDO cleaned the area of this weed in December 2005 and again in March and May 2014. However, because no follow up was carried out the weed invasion urgently needs to be dealt with again and to be incorporated into future regular FIDO weeding programs.

- totally eradicate Abrus from Happy Valley as it is the only site (albeit a large site) on Fraser Island where it occurs
- control weed infestation on Fraser Island by garden escapees found in residential areas on the Island and prevent further new infestations
- establish a rain gauge to help get better environmental monitoring in and around Happy Valley since it is not only the aggregate rainfall but the intensity of downpours that influence erosion and sediment movement.",,,"697FF840-6758-40A6-8143-608AD738F3B5"

To be a part of the on-ground works component of this project he has completed the following training courses to improve his knowledge of sustainable grazing systems:
- DPI Stocktake Balancing Supply and Demand workshop
- planned grazing workshops
- property management planning.
Mr Coaster-Garton’s project aims to erect a fencing system that assists in managing different land types whilst running a managed grazing regime on a rotational basis and thus reduce run-off into the Logan River. The project will in time reduce erosion, increase soil fertility, improve native grasses as well as increase stocking rates that will improve farm viability through sustainability.
With assistance from the recently acquired ‘FarmFlow’ funding, 1800m of Logan River frontage has already been fenced, ensuring stock impact on local waterways is kept to an absolute minimum. The project will see the fencing of a fragile 0.6ha wetland area that will permanently exclude stock. The area is currently being grazed all year round.
The grazing plan aims to improve pasture and land condition and soil health over 98ha. This will be achieved through priority on-ground works to enable controlled grazing, including:
- establishing 17 additional water points
- constructing 5.5km fencing.
The project will deliver extension, action learning, training, on-ground works and practice change through a focus on the identified needs of ‘communities of practice’ within prioritised landscapes.
This project will make a tangible contribution to the Woolworths program objectives of:
- demonstrating the production and environmental benefits of improved grazing management through land condition monitoring, forage budgeting and property planning

It has arisen out of a need to add value to an existing project.
Marine debris collects in and around the wetlands by floating on prevailing winds and currents. Recent flooding in the Fitzroy River has exacerbated the problem. Large items of debris can trap wildlife, while smaller fragments containing toxins enter the ecosystem and bioaccumulation.
Project activities include: removing debris, recycling contents, tracking rubbish origins, liaising with Tangoroa Blue to contribute to the national database, and working with government agencies to track illegal dumping of debris. Additionally, ecosystem functionality will be restored to 42ha of Ramsar Habitat.
This project will engage six community groups in addressing marine debris threats to our Ramsar area. In preparation, groundworks have commenced. ",,,"2B44C396-8A26-4A02-885D-C0A4CA37CA9E"

Target areas have been identified utilising existing and new priority species habitat mapping and wetland mapping.
This project will improve habitat for eastern glossy black cockatoo (Calyptorhynchus lathami lathami) by undertaking re-vegetation and weed control (including lantana, Singapore daisy, asparagus fern) in five public areas that are known to support populations of glossy black cockatoos (GBC), which are listed as ‘vulnerable’ in Queensland under the Nature Conservation Act 1992.
Re-vegetation actions will use local provenance plants sourced from known GBC food trees (Allocasuarina littoralis and Casuarina equisetifolia) and will use Eucalyptus bancroftii, a plant listed as ‘vulnerable’ under the Nature Conservation Act 1992, to improve floral diversity of each site.
When planning management activities the project officer will refer to the ‘Glossy Black-Cockatoo Conservation Guidelines for South-Eastern Queensland and Far North-Eastern New South Wales’ (Version 1, 2010) produced by the Glossy Black Conservancy.
The total area of habitat restoration is 16.64ha, made up of five ‘islands’: Weyba Conservation Park (11ha); AW Dan Park (2ha); Dame Patti Park (1.3ha); Burgess Creek (1.7ha); and Comet Park (0.64ha).

With funding provided through the Powerlink GreenWorks Program, and with support from the Australian Government’s Caring for our Country program, SEQ Catchments is providing support, advice and financial incentives to assist landholders in the region to conserve and enhance remnant and regrowth swamp tea-tree forest.
The landholder is a member of the Land for Wildlife program and is keen to improve the environmental values on the property, which was cleared of the original vegetation decades ago. The neighbouring property supports a swamp tea tree remnant and some scattered natural regeneration. The landowners are involved in the GreenWorks project by carrying out works that will protect and improve the condition of this endangered ecological community.
The property is located on the floodplain of Cressbrook Creek, with large areas of the property containing gilgai microrelief (commonly referred to as melonhole country). Pre-clearing mapping suggests that the property originally supported Queensland blue gum (Eucalyptus tereticornis) woodland and given the similar soil types and landforms to the neighbouring property, it is fair to suggest that the property would have also originally supported swamp tea tree forest, most probably RE 12.3.3c.
This project aims to enhance environmental values on the property by the following activities:
- establishing electric fencing to protect 0.5ha of natural wetland community from stock and allowing natural regeneration to occur
implementing strategic weed control along Cressbrook Creek to enhance fringing riparian vegetation (RE 12.3.7)
- establishing site preparation for a possible re-vegetation project to re-establish former endangered swamp tea tree and Queensland blue gum community (RE 12.3.3c).
Proposed project monitoring and maintenance:
- establish one standard photo-point to monitor habitat condition and regrowth in fenced remnant area
- maintain fencing and follow controlled grazing management plan to prevent overgrazing in project area.",,"SEQC2019","59B67B47-EFA5-40F8-B655-5537BC8A5C6A"

Landscape Resilience (Queensland Government)",,,"2013","2015","Spotswoods Lagoon is a 100ha shallow coastal wetland on a private property, about 15km south of Home Hill, in North Queensland. Situated on the Burdekin Delta, it’s an important support area for the internationally-renowned wetlands of Bowling Green Bay. During flood events its waters flow into Cape Upstart and the Great Barrier Reef lagoon.
The lagoon is a haven for many migratory wader birds, including the red-necked avocet, black-fronted dotterel, red-necked stint, and the endangered Australian painted snipe. But as recently as 2013, these birds, some of which travel from as far afield as Siberia, were nowhere to be seen – and around half the lagoon was covered with thick weeds, in particular Typha spp., commonly known as cumbungi.
Since 2013 NQ Dry Tropics has been running two separate projects concurrently – Systems Repair (funded by the Australian Government) and Landscape Resilience (funded by the Queensland Government), to restore the lagoon to its natural function.
By combining these two key investments, NQ Dry Tropics has supported the landholder to undertake measures including monitoring and reducing his water use, controlling weeds, and restoring the natural seasonal wetting and drying processes that prevent their return.
Systems Repair Project
A joint decision was made to reinstate seasonality to sustainably control weeds without using herbicide and mechanical means. NQ Dry Tropics and Lower Burdekin Water established an agreement to conduct remediation works that would:
- reduce supplementary irrigation water entering the wetland
- reinstate seasonality
- return shallow water habitat for wader birds
- monitor how long the area needs to seasonally dry out to control invasive species
- monitor changes to migratory bird populations (undertaken by BirdLife Townsville).
Landscape Resilience Project
The project team monitored the quality and quantity of water entering and leaving the farm. A data star flow logger placed in the spillway at the irrigation channel measured how much irrigation water was entering the lagoon. During one overtopping event it recorded approximately seven megalitres a day.
Following consultation with Lower Burdekin Water, the spillway was raised and measures taken to reduce the amount of unnecessary water being delivered through the channel. Since these changes, there have been no instances of excess water overtopping and entering the lagoon.","After a year, monitoring indicated that water levels hadn’t reduced as much as expected, and the lagoon wasn’t sufficiently drying down. The project team turned its focus to another possible culprit – the shallow spoon drain on the opposite side of the lagoon that was receiving tailwater from two landholders’ paddocks.
The project team and landholder discussed options to capture and reuse this excess water, and agreed to co-invest in a recycle pump, with the landholder contributing $32,000. The pump would operate in a minimum depth of 300mm and capture all water leaving the paddock, preventing it from entering the wetland and enabling it to be reused on the farm.",,"E7323DB2-6551-4AC3-888A-861CF4B454A5"

Approximately 500 metres in length, the bund was preventing tidal inundation to large inland areas that were once saltmarsh ecosystems. The bund caused the accumulation and retention of freshwater, particularly after the wet season, which promoted the infestation of exotic weeds. Taking advantage of the modified hydrology, para grass (Urochloa mutica) dominated approximately eight hectares of the national park, along with the scattered presence of olive hymenachne (Hymenachne amplexicaulis), a Weed of National Significance; both of which favour freshwater conditions.
The weed infestation at the project site was directly impacting local plant and fish biodiversity by dominating the wetland, as well as causing a never-ending regime of weed control maintenance for QPWS.
Through the Federal Government Biodiversity Fund, directed by the Fisheries Research and Development Corporation, the site was chosen as one of two pilot projects along the east Australian coast for revitalising estuaries in order to restore fisheries productivity, biodiversity and other environmental outcomes. In December 2012 one section of the bund was removed with an excavator, opening a gap of about 5 metres to coincide with the upcoming king tide of early January 2013. The removal of the bund showed immediate success, so further earthworks were undertaken to extend the opening to 10 metres wide. At the same time, another section of the bund was removed approximately 15 metres in width. With two areas of the bund now open to the tide, the site provided for greater tidal exchange.",,,"B8F28B0F-6BB9-4A74-9778-1FF0B9A89C35"

Significant restoration works were undertaken at the lagoon from July 2006–August 2008. The tasks undertaken were:
- water quality sampling
- fish community sampling
- observations of bird communities
- consultation with landholders and stakeholders
- public education
- spraying of weeds
- mechanical removal of weeds using an excavator and an aquatic weed harvester
- construction of lagoons to act as fish refuge and sediment traps
- construction of a fishway
- revegetation of banks and
- provision of incentives for landholders to control weeds after project completion.
Effective communication with the landholders surrounding the Lagoon allowed for:
- access at all times for all works
- dumping points for the removed material
- land adjacent to the lagoon to be used for construction of sediment and fish refuge ponds.","More recently, in late 2015, an outbreak of water hyacinth is overtaking the Council’s ability to manage the weed using chemical control.

Pest plants and animals and inappropriate recreational use of sensitive habitats have been identified as significant threats to the Shoalwater and Corio Bays Ramsar areas. These will be addressed throughout the sub project to protect and conserve the ecological character and values of the Ramsar site and associated nationally-listed species and ecosystems. Pest control activities are likely to include aerial shooting, trapping, baiting, direct chemical control and manual weed removal.
The capacity of Indigenous communities to conserve and protect natural resources will be enhanced by facilitating indigenous participation in the development of a management plan for the Shoalwater and Corio Bays Ramsar area. Awareness raising events will incorporate the opportunity for traditional owners to communicate cultural traditional knowledge of the Ramsar area, and become involved in the planning and delivery of the events.
The project will also focus on improving the communities' understanding of the impact of recreational use on sensitive coastal habitats in the area. Community groups and volunteers will be involved in the delivery of this sub-project through participation in awareness-raising activities aimed at increasing knowledge of the environmental values of Corio Bay. Topics covered will include threatened species in the region and information on the high species diversity and large populations of waterbirds, migratory shorebirds, turtles, dugong and fish, which use the area at different life history stages. Volunteers may also participate in on-ground restoration activities such as sand fencing to reduce dune erosion and revegetation at Corio Bay to improve diversity and increase native habitat value. Strategies to reduce threats to these sensitive areas, including reducing the impact from recreational use through undesignated access and vehicle impacts, is a key component of this project.
Because of the relevant experience and expertise available, and the sensitivities involved in delivering projects on Defence land, this sub project will be primarily implemented through third party arrangements (direct and indirect grants). FBA will provide contract management, administrative and facilitation services.","Aerial shooting of feral pigs is more effective in the open areas of the Ramsar site than baiting; baiting is preferred where tree cover prevents aerial control.

Australian Government",,,,"2006-07-01","The Southern Fitzroy floodplain project was the largest of the Pilot Program projects in terms of scope and geographic extent. It delivered a coordinated program of wetland habitat restoration in strategically targeted sites within the Southern Fitzroy floodplain. Achievements of the project:
- the use of strategic grazing and controlled fires to manage invasive grasses
- targeted herbicide spraying to control weeds
- revegetation
- restoration of connectivity
- installation of ‘snag fixtures’ to enhance fish habitat
- incentives for site maintenance
- monitoring, including photo monitoring, electro-fishing and cast net sampling.
The wetlands included in the project were:
- Gracemere Lagoon
- Duck Pond
- Meura Plains
- Springers Lagoon
- Toonda Lagoon (in the 12 Mile Creek system)
- Blacks Waterhole on Raglan Creek
- Larcom Vale Creek Reserve.","Much of the southern Fitzroy floodplain is dominated by invasive grasses such as para grass, hymenachne and guinea grass. Riparian weeds include rubber vine, parkinsonia and prickly acacia.
Weeds affect native vegetation through competitive exclusion, reduction in biodiversity and alteration of habitat values.
Past clearing has been detrimental to riparian and floodplain vegetation communities. Clearing has reduced catchment vegetation cover and contributed to increased soil erosion, elevated sediment and nutrient loads, and decreased water quality.
Heavy grazing pressure in some wetland areas has contributed to soil erosion. In areas where grazing is moderate or non-existent, exotic pastures such as guinea grass create large fuel loads, which are a hot fire risk.
Loss of connectivity between freshwater and marine habitats is a problem across the wider Fitzroy basin, particularly for marine breeding species such as barramundi, mangrove jack, mullet and tarpon.",,"B6A32842-5ABA-4970-A19A-90CFCB860D69"

The key environmental threats facing the wetland at the time of the work included: aquatic and terrestrial weeds; agricultural impacts; and urban encroachment.
To address these threats, the Splitter’s Creek catchment was divided into assessment and catchment reaches and the on-ground works were designed specifically for each reach with involvement and support from landholders. On-ground works undertaken included: chemical spraying of para grass; physical removal of aquatic weeds (water hyacinth and salvinia); re-vegetation of riparian buffer; installation of owl boxes as a trial in the control of rats in a macadamia plantation; re-vegetation and rehabilitation of bank erosion.
Key strategies to raise awareness included: media releases resulting in television coverage; an on-site project launch day; a plant and weed identification bus trip; and a project display.","The success of this project was enabled by a dedicated local project driver and a good technical support group.

The Lower Burdekin supports coastal development, including the important industry of sugarcane production. Changes to the landscape have led to loss of seasonality in the wetland coastal ecosystems flowing into the GBR. Relatively high ground water levels and perennial surface flows (ephemeral prior to construction of Burdekin Falls Dam), provides ideal conditions for proliferation of invasive species, including native species. This project is a collaborative approach to strategically restore ecological function to these priority Ramsar Wetlands of Bowling Green Bay. The primary project outcome is improved ecological function of priority wetland coastal ecosystems leading to the GBR via the Ramsar Wetlands of Bowling Green Bay.
Related outcomes include:
- improved water quality of run-off via uptake of excess nutrients
- improved dissolved oxygen and a reduction in sediment run-off
- improved aquatic biodiversity and habitat
- improved landscape connectivity (aquatic and terrestrial) from the upper part of the sub-catchment through to the GBR
- knowledge sharing with project partner operational staff and landholders
- alignment of activities with project partners for sustainable management of water and environment
- improved resilience of these priority wetlands to the impacts of climate change.
Reef Rescue, along with Informing Outlook for GBR Coastal Ecosystems, recognises that healthy wetlands and other coastal ecosystems are critical for the long-term health and resilience of the GBR. This project is relevant as it is focused on restoring health and function into the priority wetlands that are being impacted upon by the proliferation of invasive species due to modified landscape condition and use.
The activities proposed align with the investment themes. Importantly, the project recognises the importance of the current land use, predominantly sugar production, and aims to work with project partners to find a balance between development and the areas high natural value.
Connections between remnant vegetation in fragmented landscape improved. Existing native vegetation condition that has high conservation value is protected, managed and enhanced. The extent of native habitats in fragmented landscapes is expanded. Carbon is bio-sequestered.",,,"E337AC60-D562-46FA-95A8-548FE8D6522E"

The station includes a complex of natural and modified wetlands comprising riparian vegetated stream channels, channel hosted lagoons, melaleuca and palm swamp forests and bunded intertidal areas. Most of the site is used for pastoral production.
The main aim of the project was to protect and rehabilitate the property’s coastal wetland habitat and to negotiate a nature refuge agreement. The main challenges facing the property at the time of these projects were infestations of exotic grasses such as para grass and hymenachne; large populations of feral pigs preying on bird and crocodile nests; loss of freshwater wetland connectivity and elevated sediment, nutrient and other contaminants in water bodies.
The main focus of on-ground work efforts included erection of fencing and controlled burning to reduce exotic grass biomass and promote the growth of native understorey, overstorey and aquatic plants. Feral pig control was also undertaken. Wetland values, condition, threats and related production management were also undertaken and management recommendations were developed to manage key wetland and remnant habitats on the station. Additionally, five information bulletins were developed showing results from monitoring, surveys and management.","One of the key findings of the project was that some of the existing management regimes (e.g. heavy grazing late in the dry season) are of critical importance in helping to maintain the ecological condition and values of the wetland complex.","Tedlands wetland rehabilitation","FCBEEEAF-5D94-49ED-961C-E24D488450C4"

Invasive weeds in the area, if left unmanaged, choke these wetlands and reduce water quality to the Great Barrier Reef.
The project is focused on a major weed infestation at Kalamia Creek, near Ayr. The aim is not only to remove the weeds, but also to turn them into a compost to improve soil health and boost local agriculture.
To compost the weeds a permit to transport declared plant material was obtained from Biosecurity Queensland. To reduce the impact of spreading declared weeds and pathogens, the approved permit required the project team to comply with Australian Standards using best practice composting techniques. The project team was required to:
-Ensure the windrows maintained a temperature of 55 degrees plus for over one week then turn and repeat the process.
-Conduct weed seed germination trials on the composted material.
-The Australian Standards align with our desktop investigation in composting techniques, weed seed and pathogen treatment. To comply with the standards the landholder monitored the temperatures of the piles. The compost sampled weekly for a month and on each occasion the temperature was recorded at over 60 degrees. Seed germination trials were conducted at the Lower Burdekin Landcare nursery.","There has been three minor challenges. Firstly, pieces of metal (e.g. old rubbish dumped in the area) were being found in the initial pile of the compost which was causing damage to the farmers compost turner. To minimise the impact, the project team bought the farmer a metal detector. The farmer now sweeps the metal detector over the windrows before each turn. If a signal is received, he manually digs into the pile and locates the object. Secondly, the grazier whose property is used to stack the weed material had concerns about potential loss of productive ground and grass cover due to the weed piles and machinery tracks. Access to this property is critical to the success of the project so the project team and the grazier discussed the issues and identified solutions. The outcome was that NQ Dry Tropics provided fencing materials so the grazier could expand his grazing area into a previously unused area.
Thirdly, there is more plant material on the banks than can fit into the composting area. The two possible solutions for this is to either leave it insitu and load it when space becomes available or adapt the composting methods from the current aerobic composting technique to anaerobic. To do this, the project team has been discussing options with a “no turn” composting expert. This solution, if successful, may result in the reduction in loading time, labour and expenses.",,"C1000F0A-89D2-434F-982C-FAE8CE3D5A9F"

In particular, this project will eradicate madeira vine from the only known location in upper Christmas Creek. Madeira vine adds to infrastructure damage during flood periods by causing bank destabilisation and creating increased resistance for flood waters, which can uproot trees. Destruction of riverside vegetation by madeira vine has led to increased bank erosion and water turbidity issues that affect water catchment regions.

The target species are Madeira Vine and Cats Claw Creeper which have previously been mapped. Madeira Vine is particularly extensive in this area and the eradication of both vines is urgent, given their capacity for dispersing propagules downstream to the main trunk of the Mary River.
The total area of weed control is 29.1 ha. The mapped weed control sites have been superimposed on the Regional Ecosystem remnant vegetation mapping for the area. This indicates that eradication of these weed vines will protect at least 30 ha of non-infested stretches of these streams. In addition, this may prevent infestation or re-infestation of many hundreds of hectares downstream in the Mary River, by propagules carried by passive flow and flood-waters. By restoring the health of vegetation affected by weed vines, natural regeneration can occur and support the expansion of these sites.",,,"66595376-FB39-48F2-8E7D-4434C0760CD3"

It is one of 42 wetlands in the Burnett Mary region to have been classified of regional priority through the Queensland and Australian government’s Wetland Inventory and Prioritisation program.
Jack's Lagoon is a 4.43 ha spring fed freshwater wetland in Lowmead set in agricultural surrounds. It has high ecological and biodiversity values. Actions can be undertaken to improve the wetland’s function. BMRG is working with the landholder to increase ecological connectivity, enhance riparian vegetation and control a number of environmental weeds. These actions will help improve water quality and allow the wetland to function as a filter during high flows. This builds upon previous works in 2009 which included fencing the shallow section of the wetland to restrict cattle access, protecting key nesting habitat for several wetland bird species. This resulted in decreasing trampling and pugging of the wetland soils and vegetation by stock. Since these works, the shallow wetland has responded well despite extreme flooding in 2013. Three years on, the site is being revisited to explore effective strategies to facilitate ongoing natural regeneration of the shallow portion of this wetland.
The rehabilitation works in Jack's Lagoon, is comprised of two parts. The first involves weed management in the shallow section of the wetland. Targeted herbicide spraying of blue heliotrope, white mist flower, common sida and other identified species of weed was undertaken. Manual removal of fleabane, red-headed cottong bush and balloon cotton and cut and paint works to treat a range of woody weeds including lantana, noogoora burr, devils fig, castor oil plant is also planned. These weeds are located primarily on the perimeter of the shallow wetland inside the existing boundary fence encompassing an area of 1.43 ha. This work will help restore connectivity between the shallow section of the lagoon and the deeper sections aiding wildlife including brolgas, lily walkers, herons, ducks, mullet and eels. The weed management contractor engaged by BMRG will liaise closely with the landholder to undertake the protection and enhancement works.",,,"6D194808-9873-4C80-B779-A8BF8350D2A5"

In this flat- lined lagoon, there were not the same conditions and the lack of habitat for biofilms to develop and for the higher animals to grow and breed, this meant the results were less consistent and blue-green algae were not controlled as well in this system.
