Nyah

Once completed, this project will provide a reliable breeding and feeding habitat for fish and waterbirds and will support the forest floodplain and wetland through a process of restoration. This project will help restore wetland plant communities, and help frog and fish populations to re-establish themselves. Improved conditions will provide seasonal feeding opportunities for riverine fish and through restoration of the floodplain and animals such as bats and sugar gliders will be better placed to maintain their populations
