Information prepared about sedimentation

Gosford Council's natural resources unit is to prepare a "fact sheet" about sedimentation in Hardys Bay, following recent complaints to the council.

It would also describe sedimentation studies being undertaken as part of the Brisbane Water Estuary Processes Study.

The move comes after the council received a petition with 191 signatures complaining about a build-up of mud overlaying sand at both Hardys Bay and Pretty Beach.

The council was told that the information sheet would "provide accurate data as to the amount of sediment that has built up over time in the area".
