What is happening for the Gippsland Lakes?
The $12 million for Gippsland Lakes will be allocated to provide sewerage works in Loch Sport, Seaspray and Banksia Peninsula. The towns were identified in the State Government’s Gippsland Lakes Action Plan. Seaspray will be implemented soon. The relevant councils – Banksia Peninsula (East Gippsland Shire), Loch Sport (Wellington Shire) and Seaspray (Wellington Shire) – have received funding to work with the community and water authority. Wellington Shire is investigating the feasibility of including the township of Honeysuckle in its program.
