Erowal Riparian Fencing and Off Stream Watering commenced in 2012-13, the first Stage of which funded the fencing of the Obi Obi Creek riparian zone and initial weed management. This project followed up with the installation of off stream watering infrastructure and will now continue weed management for the next two years as the fencing has now finished.

Overall, the project removed livestock access to 850 metres Obi Obi Creek on the Erowal property, improved the buffering ability of the riparian zone and contributed to the extensive revegetation occurring on the Maleny Community Precinct – immediately across the Obi Obi Creek from Erowal.
