Storm debris removal in Silvan Reservoir
We have completed an operation in the Silvan Reservoir closed catchment to clear a large quantity of debris following the 2021 storms. This will reduce bushfire risk in the reservoir and the surrounding region, and in doing so, help protect our water supply. Replanting and hand-seeding to regenerate the affected areas has now been completed.
