The Wire

Queensland’s Ecosystem Health Report Card released this week shows stretches of Brisbane’s waterways are severely unhealthy. One of the worst sections runs from the Wivehoe dam wall to Mount Crosby weir – and has been slammed with an F grade.

According to the Australian Rivers Institute, Brisbane’s water just isn’t up to scratch.The report card shows one section in our waterway is so unhealthy, they gave it a fail grade.Somerset Regional Council covers one part of the failed area, but Mayor Graham Lehmann says the community shouldn’t be worried.
