Cook Island Aquatic Reserve

This Cook Island presentation which was presented at the Tweed Coast & Waterways Committee meeting, provides details of the Cook Island Aquatic Reserve, which has been established since 1998.

Most importantly, with this presentation the Department of Primary Industries and Regional Development – Fisheries, invites local community involvement to be the eyes, ears and voice of the aquatic reserve, and to report any issues which may compromise the protection of the Cook Island Aquatic Reserve.

Please refer to pages 16 to 18, of the presentation, which is an incredibly important message to share with our community.

Tweed Emergency Dashboard

Our community can bookmark and check out the Tweed Shire Council’s Tweed Emergency Dashboard.

If you get lost trying to find river levels in the BOM web site, just go to the Tweed Emergency Dashboard and click on the big button marked “River heights” – it will take you to the Tweed River section of the BOM web site.

Once in there you can view the graphical plots of all the river gauges on the Tweed River, at Barney’s Point, the closest to Fingal Point.

If you look at the river heights from the past few days you’ll be able to see the effects of the rain in our upper catchments from a few days ago and yesterday. There will be two spikes in the river heights.
