Energex engaged Ecosure’s ecological restoration team to revegetate a large site at Tamborine Village Substation on Mount Tamborine in the Gold Coast hinterland. The project aimed to return the site to a near natural state by revegetating with local species that were likely to have occurred prior to the site being cleared, thereby enhancing the nature conservation values, water quality and ecological function of the site and surrounds.
After assessing the site and its requirements, preparation including weed control and ripping were conducted for the planting of 10,300 local plants.
The area is now under maintenance with excellent survival rates and will continue to be maintained for another 2 years.
