Rolling works out across Australia

We have been successful in several funding rounds recently which will help towards rolling our landscape rehydration work out across Australia.

Western Australia 

Thanks to the Government of Western Australia’s ‘Community Stewardship Grants 2020’, we will be undertaking a series of workshops on site assessments, detailed design preparation and the construction of landscape rehydration structures at four different properties in South West WA, including one at the Muresk Institute near Northam in the Wheatbelt. We will be working closely with WA hydrologist Lance Mudgway on these workshops and a number of local NRM groups.

North Queensland

Sam Skeat has been successful in winning a grant for the design and construction of a demonstration site in the Triple B catchment encompassing Bowen, Broken and Bogie. This builds on the work already done with NQ Dry Tropics and is made possible through a grant allocation from the Great Barrier Reef Foundation to NQ Dry Tropics. The project will create a sediment saving demonstration site and landholder education within the Triple B catchment.

New South Wales 

Closer to home, the Forestry Corporation of NSW has been successful in receiving funding for work to remediate the sensitive Montaine Peatlands Endangered Ecological Community in Bago State Forest. The remediation program will include development of a monitoring plan which will be overseen by TMI’s Science Advisory Council.
