Lantana controlled at Scrubby creek:
SCYC and the Nyungkal Rangers have now pulled out 3.7 ha of Lantana along the Wet Tropics to Annan River National Park Wildlife corridor site.
Thanks to everyone who has been out there over recent months in the heat and rain putting in a huge effort.
While we still have more to do, we are progressing well.
Saturday 5th March 2011:
SCYC's paper on Salvinia control in Lakeland has been accepted by the Queensland Weeds Symposium for presentation at their conference in Mackay in July 2011.
Our new website is now live but still a work in progress.
We will make the new pages available as we create them. So stay tuned!
What we do
South Cape York Catchments (SCYC) is a community based Natural Resource Management organisation.
In the last 12 month we have undertaken works including aquatic weed control, cultural heritage protection, revegetation of riparian areas, feral pig exclusion fencing from high value wetlands, water quality monitoring and threatened species surveys.
This work is undertaken in partnership with Traditional Owners, Volunteers, Indigenous Rangers and School Students.
Our vision
The South Cape York Catchments will be a place where the community is actively engaged in sustainable natural resource management practices so that the cultural, environmental and economic values of the region are maintained and enhanced.
