Summary
Swamp tea-tree forest is considered endangered under Commonwealth and Queensland legislation. With funding provided through Powerlink GreenWorks 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 has not formally completed Property Management Planning training provided by SEQ Catchments but has worked through a consultant and SEQC staff to develop a project action plan for implementation. This project aims to increase the extent of swamp tea-tree forest RE 12.9-10.11 in South East Queensland by connecting two existing separate patches: one of remnant status and one classed as high value regrowth.
