Glen Alvin - Wildlife Corridor and Gully Regeneration

This project will fence off 1.5 kms of a watercourse that is showing signs of erosion and create off-stream watering points to prevent cattle accessing it. Replanting of 1,200 native shrubs and trees will rejuvenate the cleared landscape and stabilise the watercourse. The community will be engaged through a field day, media releases and newsletter. The project will result in a wildlife corridor linking existing areas of remnant vegetation, habitat to support a number of threatened species and a food source for native birds, mammals and frogs. Soil structure and soil carbon will improve, nutrient inflows and erosion will reduce, and water quality in the Iron Pot Creek and the Richmond River will improve.
