Pearl Beach is assessed

Pearl Beach was assessed last week by Keep Australia Beautiful assessor Mr Brian Birkfield.

Pearl Beach was one of 130 NSW beaches entered into the organisation's Clean Beach Challenge competition.

Assessors examined water conservation methods, resource recovery, visitor friendliness and community action, as well as litter.

"The Clean Beach Challenge is a great vessel to provide individuals, community groups, schools and councils with the recognition that they deserve," Keep Australia Beautiful NSW chief executive Mr Peter McLean said.

"Only too often do quite achieving environmentalists pass by unnoticed despite their fantastic contribution to our beach environment.

"Keep Australia Beautiful NSW is instrumental in giving credit to those who do their bit for the environment."
