In Jackson Park’s August Bushcare session, the Group, with the help of Bushcare Officer Peter Chrismas, built a structure to collect sediment coming from the stormwater outlet.

The materials used were coir logs that were staked to anchor them into the ground so that the water is trapped in the structure and the sediment drop out and the cleaner water trickles onto the site.
