SALINITY WORKING GROUP
Gribble Creek
 A
Salinity Working Group was formed in February 2000 in conjunction with the
new Centre for the Management of Arid Environments (CMAE). A series of monitoring
bores have been set up along Gribble Creek, to determine the severity and extent
of the salinity problem.
A study by an Honours student has determined that there is a very severe urban salinity problem.
KBULG has been requested to assist with the education and public awareness phase and the implementation
of revegetation solutions.
KBULG is also represented on the Gribble Creek Development Advisory Committee,
which is an advisory committee to the City of Kalgoorlie-Boulder on issues relating
to the development and maintenance of Gribble Creek.
