Environmental Restoration / Cattai Wetlands / Weed Control

The proposed project involves undertaking follow-up weed control across all vegetated areas of the site using manual removal or applying herbicides using a number of techniques such as cut and paint and spraying. The major weeds to be controlled include Morning Glory, Blackberry, Lantana, Madeira Vine, Moth Vine, Groundsel Bush and Camphor Laurel. Other activities to be undertaken include the maintenance of assisted revegetation areas. These actions will help to support the natural regeneration of the site by reducing weed competition, enhance threatened species habitat and endangered ecological communities including coastal wetlands, and strengthen the resilience of the site to function as major wildlife corridor.
