Tyagarah - Crown Land Endangered Ecological Communities Restoration Project

This project will implement stage 1 of the Tyagarah Coastal Remnant Vegetation Management Plan in management zones 1 and 3. The 2 ha coastal site contains three Endangered Ecological Communities (EECs), Littoral Rainforest, Subtropical Coastal Floodplain Forest and Freshwater Wetlands on Coastal Floodplain. These EECs are threatened by the invasion of exotic vines and woody weeds. The project will undertake weed control work over the two management zones and revegetate 0.1 ha of wetland/billabong with the planting of 100 appropriate native riparian and wetland species. Through a community engagement workshop, training day and article, it will raise awareness of the value of EECs and the need for protection of these coastal remnants.
