Every Queenslander has a ‘general biosecurity obligation’ and is responsible for managing biosecurity risks that are under their control
Council has developed a Biosecurity Plan that prioritises pest plant and animal for the Burdekin and outlines strategies to minimise impact
Council's Biosecurity Plan identifies feral pigs, wild dogs/dingoes and chital deer as the main pest animals in the Shire
Council's Biosecurity Plan identifies both high and medium pest plants that are Council's focus. This includes water weeds in our creek systems and lagoons
These plans assist the landholder in identifying and managing pest plants and animals affecting their property and assists in accessing Council services and subsidies
Council has a number of services and subsidies available for landholders to assist in controlling pest plants and animals
