Environmental manager Christopher Walker said the Pelican Waters 3 project involved research into which plants could survive in fresh and saltwater. Covey Associates has installed floating wetlands to help manage water quality and stormwater runoff at Tewantin and Pelican Waters. He said the systems work like hydroponics and the roots of the plants capture sediment and stormwater run-off. During research for their first saltwater system the Coast had little rainfall, so they stimulated a wet weather event by pouring 53,000 litres into the catchment in two-minute intervals. Dr Walker and other Covey Associates representatives have presented on the technology at some of the world s leading stormwater management conferences.

Maroochydore recorded the highest amount with 65 cases investigated, Beerwah recorded 24 cruelty complaints with 19 complaints in Coolum Beach. The animal welfare group however, said it is encouraging to note that a total of 1535 fewer cruelty complaints were reported statewide, than in 2019. RSPCA Queensland spokesman Michael Beatty said the results offered a glimmer of hope. The results were slightly down, how much of that has to do with the fact that more people were actually at home and weren t travelling for work, he said.
The site is an important gathering space for Kabi Kabi people. Sunshine Coast Council will put in place a fenced area to protect a shell midden mound and associated artefacts at the park. Interpretative signage about Kabi Kabi peoples connections to the site and the shell midden is also planned. The inclusion of a fenced dog off-leash area follows a community consultation process which resulted in 204 surveys completed and a community meeting to hear from a further 40 community members sharing their valuable local knowledge, thoughts and ideas. The dog off-leash area will be installed at the northern end of the park and will include seating, rubbish bin, water tap and shade trees.
