Pollack Wetland Community Tour 2021

Western Murray Land Improvement Group (WMLIG) in partnership with Murray Local Land Services (MLLS) held a second community tour of the Koondrook-Perricoota (KP) Forest on 31st Jan 2021. The tour provided the opportunity for community members to visit three sites within the forest, including the Pollack Swamp Inlet, Pollack Lagoon, and the Smokehouse Lagoon. The purpose of both mid-December’s and January's tour was to demonstrate the positive effects that managed environmental watering has had in the Pollack, to raise awareness of the current poor condition of the broader KP Forest, and to lead a bottom-up community-led approach for a shared vision of the forest.

As a result of community interest and a desire to provide input into the future projects of the KP Forest, a community meeting is planned for late February. This session will provide community members with an opportunity to be part of local decision making and form social connections. To preliminarily scope out a community vision and objectives for the forest as well as topics of interest for seminars in the future, a short survey is available below. Hard copies are available for pickup at 27 Thule St Barham. ​All community members are welcomed to participate in this anonymous survey.
