After being honoured with the Australian Water Association Infrastructure Project Innovation Award (Regional) at a state level in November 2025, the Healthy Coorong, Healthy Basin Lake Hawdon North On-Ground Works project went on to secure the National award at the OzWater ’26 Gala in Brisbane on 27 May.
Promising results have been recorded from bird surveys conducted at various Healthy Coorong, Healthy Basin (HCHB) On-Ground Works sites, with Lake Hawdon North, Teringie Wetland Complex and Tolderol Game Reserve all seeing phenomenal results and large numbers of birds returning to the sites almost immediately after completion of their respective HCHB on-ground works projects.
A cattle station will be turned into a vital wetlands habitat and form part of an expanded national park, helping to protect endangered species, reduce nutrient runoff and improve environmental resilience across the Murray Mouth.
