Registrations are now open for the 10^th Australian Acid and Metalliferous Drainage workshop to be held on 23 - 26 March 2020 in Dubbo, New South Wales.  For further details visit the AMD Australia site or inquiries to m.rowland1@uq.edu.au

Since 2017, rainfall deficiencies have affected most of the New South Wales, Queensland and South Australian parts of the Murray-Darling Basin. These longer-term deficiencies extend to parts of the New South Wales coast, particularly in the Hunter and Illawarra districts, and to much of the eastern half of South Australia from Adelaide northwards.

Today, and with the overwhelming support of its new committee, CQMRG donated $1,000 each to Drought Angels and Rural Aid.

Learn how erosion has been controlled at the Caloundra Road to Sunshine Coast Motorway (CR2SM), including an erosion sediment plan and re-vegetation methodologies.  Registrations due Friday 29 March -follow this link!

Two postgraduate scholarships are on offer in 2019 for innovative research into ways to improve land rehabilitation measures for Queensland coal mines.
