Whitsunday Regional Council is launching a collaborative Erosion and Sediment Control Inspection Program this wet season (November – April 2025) to help protect our waterways, seagrasses and reef environments.

Sites with good erosion and sediment controls not only safeguard marine ecosystems but also prevent soil and gravel from clogging stormwater drains, which in turn reduces local flooding and keeps our roads safer.

Find out more about best practice erosion and sediment controls by visiting the Coastal Management and Waterways section of Council’s website.
