Killalea’s Draft Plan of Management

Graham Burgess and Helen Wilson, Illawarra Branch

Killalea Regional Park is the only coastal reserve between Shellharbour, south of Wollongong, and Seven Mile Beach south of Kiama. As housing developments have burgeoned in the former dairy farming area, many coastal environments have been threatened. It’s important that what remains is well protected, so the new Draft Plan of Management (DPOM) is a step in the right direction.
