Clean-up at Woy Woy

The Ocean and Coastal Care Initiative and the Central Coast branch of the Australian Conservation Foundation Central Coast branch will be coordinating a clean-up in Woy Woy for Clean-Up Australia Day.

The clean up will combine an inspection and clearing of storm water outlets and water sampling of storm water pipes running into Brisbane waters from Lalina Ave to Lions Park on the morning of March 3.

"Any Peninsula residents, especially those living nearby who use the reserve and might be impacted by storm water discharge, would be most welcome," said site coordinator Mr Paul Burns.

Mr Burns said a periodic follow up inspection of site pollution "hot spots" would be arranged.

For further information, phone Mr Burns on 4344 7066,
