Council is preparing new management plans for the Macleay River, Killick Creek and Korogoro Creek

Kempsey Shire Council is reviewing and updating the Estuary Coastal Zone Management Plans for the Macleay River, Killick Creek and Korogoro Creek.

Coastal Management Programs will replace the existing plans and will be a guide for councils to preserve and improve the habitats, recreational amenity and resilience of estuaries into the future.

Council, with financial and technical support from the Office of Environment and Heritage, has engaged Coastal Management Consultants BMT to undertake stage 1 scoping studies of these estuaries.

The studies, which are currently being undertaken and should be completed by late 2018, require evaluating current management measures to consider either new or alternate measures for improvement.

As a component of the scoping studies, council wants the community to provide input through three online surveys to identify the community’s needs and management priorities for these estuaries.

Public feedback will help council develop new coastal management programs for these estuaries while ensuring that the programs are prepared in line with public expectations.
