Landscape Restoration
|
Beyond Bolac $28,000 Fiery Creek, Salt Creek, and Lake Bolac are sub-catchments of the Glenelg Hopkins River region, to the west of Ballarat. They are identified as H11 and H12. The long-term commitment of the H11 and H12 Community Action Group will be to improve stream health, to implement restoration actions in the landscape to stop the increase of salt and silt discharging from Fiery Creek and Salt Creeks, and to reduce overall salinity and silting in Lake Bolac. Grants have helped to fund an Administrator who has been responsible for community engagement and the writing of funding applications. A grant from the RE Ross Trust Small Rural Victorian Grants Scheme administered through our foundation has funded salinity testing. see http://beyondbolac.weebly.com/
