Media 2010

Roebuck Bay achieved a sharp increase in media attention with the big issues: Lyngbya blooms, sea level rise, habitat loss for migrating shorebirds, crocodiles, a proposed Marine Park, coastal rubbish, a pearling statue on the bay’s foreshore, support for Heritage Listing of Roebuck Bay and Rangelands NRM funding a Keep Our Bay Clean project aimed at reducing nutrients and pindan from entering the Bay and feeding Lyngbya blooms.
