The project involved large scale spraying of Bitou Bush between Coloma St and the second beach car park using several Council spray trucks and operators (early May 09 4-5days). The western side of Budgewoi road from Slade Park south to the Toukley Golf Club boundary was also sprayed (early June 09 2-3 days). A slasher was used to create an edge break from the road and tracks into the Bitou Bush to allow access by spray units (April 09)
A D7 dozer was used to create a buffer for the environmental burn and to distribute sand to reform dunes north of the first car park and south of Coloma St to a shape and contour representative of natural conditions consistent with methods described in the Coastal Dune Management Manual. The dozer was also used to redistribute sand to ensure the beach access was of an acceptable gradient (1:8 or lower). A 10m buffer zone was also created by the dozer as a fire break for the environmental burn (June 09 4 days).
