Flinders Pond Trio

Cove Waterways Management has recently completed works for the City of Joondalup, these works consisted of removing large stands of submerged typha from the trio of lakes making up the Flinders Park Reserve. The typha had spread from fringing stands up six meters into the lake. With the use of the only Truxor amphibious machine in Western Australia, we were able to remove the typha rootball and rhizomes. By removing the whole plant you get less rotting material that creates nutrient rich sediment and you get to maintain water depth.
