Inaugural Salt to Dust Western Queensland Traditional Owner Workshop

Traditional Owners and Indigenous land managers from across western Queensland came together recently for the Inaugural Salt to Dust Western Queensland Traditional Owner Workshop.
 
Held at Dugalunji Camp, Camooweal in June 2009, this workshop was the result of collaboration between Southern Gulf Catchments, Desert Channels Queensland and South West NRM, bringing together Traditional Owners and providing a forum to build capacity, network and learn from a diverse range of presenters about issues, initiatives and research that support Traditional Owners’ participation in and decision-making about country, culture and community.
 

Fish on the move

The Department of Primary Industries and Fisheries (DPI&F) in conjunction with Southern Gulf Catchments and Burke Shire Council have completed three Fish Passage projects on the lower reaches of the Nicholson and Gregory Rivers.

The completion of these fishways means the natural migration of fish in the lower reaches of the rivers is enhanced. Tim Marsden (Senior Fisheries Biologist - Northern Fish Community and Fishway Monitoring Team) of DPI&F explained.
