Summary
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 along the upper Oaky Creek to contribute to improved water quality and riparian health in the sub-catchment. The landholder will implement improved management practices for soil health by fencing off the area to reduce the impacts of continuous grazing. This project will be enhanced by similar works across the catchment on neighbouring properties aimed at improving water quality and reducing sediment loss within the catchment. The environmental benefits will include: improving the condition of native vegetation containing ‘of concern’ Regional Ecosystem 12.8.16 ‘Eucalyptus crebra, generally with E. tereticornis and E. melliodora +/- E. albens grassy woodland’ and associated riparian vegetation types’. The project will:
The proponent will maintain the weed control, erect the fence and complement this by managing native regrowth and areas of re-vegetation to stabilise the tributary gullies and banks of Oaky Creek managed in the project scope. They will also use photo-points to monitor riparian vegetation condition in the project area. Benefits
This project will:
