This project is funded through the NSW Marine Estate Management Strategy (MEMS) and was initiated to gather scientific evidence to support on-ground rehabilitation improvement works planned by the South East Local Land Services (LLS) in the Tilba Tilba region. Science, Economics and Insights Division, Department of Planning, Industry and Environment (DPIE) was engaged to develop a scientifically rigorous monitoring program to better understand the baseline ecosystem health of Victoria Creek and the Tilba Tilba Lake prior to and during rehabilitation works undertaken by LLS, thus facilitating an assessment of the effectiveness of those works.

This data set contains water quality and macroinvertebrate data collected during the baseline study.
