<strong>Seaford</strong> <strong>Rail</strong> Extension <strong>Vegetation</strong> <strong>Management</strong> <strong>Plan</strong><br />

5.4.2 Revegetation<br />

Revegetation is designed to replace a large area of Kikuyu located adjacent the constructed<br />

ephemeral wetland with Nitraria billardierei (Nitre-bush) +/- Atriplex paludosa (Marsh Saltbush)<br />

+/- Gahnia filum (Chaffy Saw-sedge) Shrubland. The Kikuyu will need to be eradicated before<br />

revegetation can occur.<br />

Revegetation techniques selected for Area 7 include:<br />

1. Tubestock / plant cells plugged directly into the ground using a Hamilton planter or<br />

similar implement.<br />

Refer to Onkaparinga Estuary <strong>Management</strong> <strong>Plan</strong> (EBS 2008) for further information of planting<br />

techniques.<br />

Photopoint locations should be set up at all major revegetation sites to document changes over<br />

time. Photopoint locations should be marked with a peg and GPS coordinates together with<br />

photo direction, documented. Site photos should be taken annually, preferably at the same time<br />

of year.<br />
