In 2004, Greater Taree City Council (central coast area, NSW) purchased 460ha of land containing extensive wetlands that were impacted, in part, by acid sulfate soils and agricultural drainage, and which were previously identified as needing restoration. Some high conservation value wetlands also occur on the property, which also has significant aboriginal cultural value.
Council commissioned WCA to develop a management strategy and to explore the potential to turn the property into a wetland and biodiversity education and interpretive facility.
