Saltwater Creek Catchment Resilience Master Plan and Implementation Plan

The Saltwater Creek Catchment is a thriving, crucial ecosystem that flows from the foothills of Mt Whitfield, through the suburbs and out to the Great Barrier Reef Lagoon. But it's at risk from urban development, flooding, pollution, heat and climate change.

The Saltwater Creek Catchment Resilience Master Plan and Local Implementation Plan aims to establish a long-term vision for the catchment while identifying actions to enhance its health, function and resilience.

It has been developed in close collaboration with key stakeholders who live and work in the catchment. It is also informed by extensive review of existing plans, studies, engagement and technical reports and environmental monitoring data (where available). The Implementation plan is a collation of actions to support the delivery the of Saltwater Creek Catchment Resilience Master Plan. Actions were identified and collated following a review of the applicable literature, workshops with project stakeholders and from a walking the catchment study tour.
