This is ultimately a story about trust in government bureaucracy. Although it comes from the USA and would appear to be a harmless if majestically incompetent blunder, it has resonance with our own Department of Sustainabilty and Environment and their failure to include prominent rare and threatened species on the EGSC Tambo Bluff Vegetation Removal Application species list, despite being fully aware of their existence.

This sign will replace the fast-becoming-derelict sign put in back in '93 at the time of planting out the gully. The area is now significant habitat and affords a lovely walk down to Bluff Lagoon. |

Tambo Bluff Landcare Coastcare were fortunate enough to be assisted by the Bairnsdale Green Corps team in a 2-day project to remove agapanthus infestations from Bluff slopes and replace with indigenous vegetation.
The team of young men and women, ably led by Kelly, were diligent, enthusiastic and willing to learn and did a fantastic job of carefully removing the agapanthus in difficult terrain (with minimal disturbance to the native ecology) and replacing the pest plants with local provenance plantings. See Gallery Pictures to view their good works. |
