Improving the ecological linkage value of the Harvey River system

This project seeks to contribute to the management of Blackberry (a Weed of National Significance) & other invasive weeds along the riparian corridor of the Harvey River between Stirling Dam and Harvey Dam, within the Shire of Harvey. The project will enhance connectivity and increase the extent of native habitat between Class A State Forest surrounding Stirling Dam, and bushland surrounding Harvey Dam in both public and private ownership. This will be achieved through chemical control of Blackberry & other weeds including Arum Lily (a Declared Weed species in WA), replanting of native endemic vegetation & exclusion fencing where appropriate. The project will work with both public land managers and private landholders.
