Ellen Brook Nutrient Stripping Wetland System

Overview

The Swan River Trust is planning to construct a series of nutrient stripping wetland basins in the Ellen Brook floodway in Belhus on Lot 81 and Lot 44, immediately north of the West Swan Road bridge. This project will also involve bank stabilisation and floodway restoration including weed control and revegetation.

What happens next

Following the seven day public comment period and consideration of any comments received, the EPA will decide whether or not this proposal requires environmental impact assessment and, if so, what level of assessment will be applied.

The Chairman's decisions on level of assessment are released each Monday on the EPA's website.
