First Port River Shellfish Restoration Project Group meeting

Following encouragement from Dr Chris Gillies (The Nature Conservancy), Dr Heidi Alleway (PIRSA) and Professor Sean Connell (University of Adelaide) the Port River Shellfish Restoration Project Group began meeting in January, 2016.

The Group was convened by Catherine McMahon and participants included members of the Port Adelaide Residents Environment Protection Group and local community members.  The interests of Group members include nature-based shoreline protection, shellfish restoration, trialling projects based on US experience such as the Billion Oyster Project.

A draft project plan was developed as a result of that meeting.
