South East Weeds Action Program Protecting Priority Sites - Bega Valley 3

The project will continue a management program to control weed infestations impacting sites with threatened species and ecological communities in the Bega Valley area to support the South East Weeds Action Program. More than 10 sites totalling more than 450 hectares have been initially identified and may be expanded if necessary. The sites are typically characterised by lowland grassy woodland and/or endangered plants being invaded by a range of weed species including African lovegrass and Lantana. The project objective is to protect threatened species and communities through targeted on-ground control supported by detailed mapping and monitoring.
