Weed Control Activities - Encounter Lakes and Franklin Island Rock Revetments

During October and November, the City of Victor Harbor will be undertaking weed control activities around Encounter Lakes and Franklin Island to ensure the integrity of the revetment isn’t compromised due to invasive vegetation or harboured vermin.

The works will be between the water’s edge and the top of the rock revetment, using `Weedmaster Duo’ (glyphosate bioactive, safe to use near aquatic areas) via spot-spraying.

Residents are asked to be aware of plant species that spread easily including Alyssum, Seaside Daisy and Gazanea (now a declared pest plant), that cause problems in the revetment area.

Waterfront residents who may have questions about the works can contact the Environment and Infrastructure Department on 8551 0500 for further information.
