This year, THECA will be holding its ninth Bushcare Forum: Caring for our Waterways: 'Clear' or 'Muddied'? The Forum will explore the current and future management of SEQ waterways and how best to manage these for the long-term future and sustainability of South East Queensland biodiversity. The subtitle ‘Clear’ or ‘Muddied’? refers to both the health of the waterways and their management. Proposals for presentations are now being sought - for further information please contact Rachel Griffiths, Forum Convenor on 07 3374 2656 or rachelgriffiths8@bigpond.com. The Forum will be held on 9 May 2009, at the Queensland Centre for Advanced Technologies, Pullenvale, Qld 4069.
