| Tumbi
Creek Project
Tumbi Creek is a waterway which enters the Tuggerah
Lakes estuary on Australia's east coast, north of Sydney.
After the creek mouth became blocked by sediment
in 2001/02, the waterway was closed to boating. Water
quality worsened and the channel became narrower, increasing
the risk of flooding.
Following a trial in mid-2006, Wyong Shire
Council agreed to use an aquatic excavator to dredge
the Tumbi Creek channel, before taking
sediment
to a waste management facility.
