Gully Remediation in the Fitzroy by Revegetation and Grazing Land Management - Mackenzie

Over three years, FBA will work with landholders to undertake on-ground works at 10 sites in each of the high sediment source catchments in the Mackenzie and Fitzroy management unit to reduce sediment delivered to the Great Barrier Reef Lagoon through gully erosion processes. Targeted work with graziers in these areas will be achieved through the use of best available evidence to identify the highest sediment source sub-catchments in the management units as well as targeting grazing businesses that have the potential to achieve practical and meaningful outcomes to address gully erosion processes.

为期三年，FBA将与土地所有者合作，在麦肯齐（Mackenzie）与菲茨罗伊（Fitzroy）管理单元内的每个高泥沙源集水区（catchment）中各布设10个点位并开展实地作业，以减少通过沟蚀（gully erosion）过程输入大堡礁泻湖的泥沙总量。
本次工作将针对上述区域的牧场主推进：通过采用现有最佳科研证据，识别各管理单元内泥沙贡献占比最高的子集水区（sub-catchment），同时锁定具备条件可通过切实有效举措解决沟蚀问题的牧场经营主体。
