Summary
This project aims to enhance the condition and connectivity of riparian habitats in the Cainbable Creek district. With funding provided through the Australian Government’s Caring for our Country program, and with support from Scenic Rim Regional Council, SEQ Catchments is providing support to grazing landholders to help protect and buffer World Heritage Area vegetation, and enhance condition and connectivity of remnant and regrowth native vegetation. This project contributes to these overall program goals through supporting the landholder to undertake more ecologically sustainable land management by reducing the impacts of uncontrolled stock access to riparian areas.
The property contains vegetation mapped as Queensland blue gum on floodplains, which is listed as ‘endangered’. The property also features a variety of remnant and regrowth eucalyptus woodlands (e.g. RE 12.3.7), which is listed as ‘of concern’. This project will improve connectivity and enhance the condition of approximately 4.8ha of regrowth/remnant vegetation through the following activities:
The landholder is committed to monitoring and the maintenance of project outcomes including:
