This report notes increases in water temperatures, decreases in dissolved oxygen and decreases in turbidity in the Noosa Catchment in 2024.

At NICA's boat launch members of NICA celebrated the much-anticipated new boat 'Osprey', it has enhanced safety features and stability for volunteers.

Despite the the looming threat of Tropical Cyclone Alfred which delivered windy and showery weather, our fearless volunteers collectively filled an estimated 50 bags of rubbish. Additionally, heavy and bulky items such as mattresses, wooden pallets, kayaks, bicycles and car tyres were found and hauled out. 

This summer local conservation volunteers with NICA will clean up and start repair of 3 degraded sections of the Estuary foreshore in Tewantin.
