The objectives of the SOWN plan are to improve aquatic ecosystems, riparian vegetation, biodiversity, climate change adaptation and community engagement.
The plan sets out policies and priority actions to guide SOWN’s activities over the next five years.
These include general policies like, widening the vegetation buffers along creeks to 20 metres to improve biodiversity and filter water inflows, creating vegetation corridors that link creek vegetation to bushland areas like Mount Coot-tha, and encouraging local residents to get involved in bushcare for their section of the creek.
Specific priority actions include Protecting The Gap Rainforest, modifying the weir in Bancroft Park and replacing it with an aquatic rockway and wetlands to allow fish passage, and exploring and responding to the impacts of climate change on creek vegetation and bushcare practice.
