    Extreme wetland makeover – Multiple benefits at Mountain View Reserve, Cranebrook Andrew McMillan Senior engineer, Alluvium Consulting, Sydney, Australia E-mail: [email protected] Tim Gowing Senior Water Management Officer, Penrith City Council, Sydney, Australia E-mail: [email protected] Daria Rech Senior Water Management Officer, Penrith City Council, Sydney, Australia E-mail: [email protected] Stormwater treatment projects provide opportunities for a range of ecological and community liveability benefits, and Penrith City Council’s scheme at Mountain View Reserve has evolved to demonstrate this potential. The subject site in Cranebrook, which is identified as a Regionally Significant Wetland (‘Wetland 156’) under Sydney Regional Environmental Plan No 20, had become neglected and degraded with weeds after a history including grazing. The project was initially focussed on stormwater treatment due to its location immediately upstream of Penrith Lakes, as well as improving the condition of the regionally significant wetland and adjacent Cumberland Plain Woodland. A concept had previously been prepared for a stormwater treatment wetland at the site, and through design development this was revised to respond to the existing ecological value found at the site and to suit the available project budget. The treatment system now includes a constructed wetland that was designed to require minimal earthworks and utilise the existing soil surface found at the site. A collaborative and multi-faceted project has resulted in a number of complimentary sub-projects to improve and activate the site including bush regeneration, walking paths, viewing platform, a bird hide, and artworks. The project has restored the site to a highly valued asset, increasing the resilience and biodiversity value of the remnant wetland, and reactivating community connections through linkages and amenity.

The Cabrogal name comes from the ‘cobra grub’, an edible freshwater worm harvested from local creeks in the City that was a staple food for the clan. Council also recognises the spiritual relationship Aboriginal Australians have with the land and the right to live according to their own beliefs, values and customs. In July 2000, Council signed a Local Government Commitment that both acknowledged and recognised Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people as the first people of Australia. It acknowledged their loss and grief caused by alienation from traditional lands, loss of lives and freedom, and the forced removal of children. The signing of this significant agreement took place during National Aboriginal and Islanders Day Observance Committee (NAIDOC) Week to symbolise the vital partnership with the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people in Fairfield City.
