Ian Cuming . Tatong
Helen Repacholi DPI Grant
A long 2.5ha site adjacent to the Benalla -Tatong roadside.
Site sprayed twice with herbicide.
Soil condition on the site excellent , moist and warm .
Paddock access boggy ( as can be seen from the photo )
Local CFA man visits to inform us we are sowing a north - south ' wick for fire' .
Ian assured him access gates for fire trucks will be (have been ) installed where appropriate.
Helen asserted that formal discussions on a regional CFA level about corridors and revegetations projects have taken place.
Four rows were sown . Understorey only in the first three rows .
Overstorey & understorey in the row nearest the paddock fence .
Gaps for Power lines and road access .
There is a high potential for natural recruitment of red gum from the roadsides given the favourable seasonal conditions . This will need to be monitored.
