Comments<br />
<strong>The</strong> Lower Wallamba River rivercare plan comprehensively addresses management issues, particularly erosion, along the tidal section of the Wallamba River. A River Keeper<br />
(action E.6.1) could coordinate many of the management strategies recommended in this plan.<br />
Erosion on the lower Wallamba River has caused undercutting of the riverbank and large Blackbutt trees to lean substantially into the estuary. To prevent large trees from falling<br />
into the estuary, tree lopping may be considered provided it is consistent with the objectives of the Lower Wallamba River rivercare plan and the relevant approvals are obtained.<br />
