Location: Noosa Spit Project: Following monitoring of the progress of the nourishment works, Noosa Council in conjunction with the Contractor, have made the difficult decision to halt work on the sand nourishment work at Doggie Beach. It was decided to stop the dredging work due to the challenging nature of that section of the Noosa River and the likelihood of it not being completed before the permit deadline of late September.
The decision has been made to prevent further disruption to beach and river users. This means the beach and adjacent waterway will be reopened to the public.
Under the permit, work can only be conducted during April to September to minimise environmental impacts such as the seasonal migratory shorebirds. Council will continue to investigate options to complete the sand nourishment work when possible.
