It’s National Volunteer week and Recfishwest would love to say THANK YOU to all our spectacular volunteers!

So many of Recfishwest’s diverse range of projects, committees and events would not be possible without the tireless help and support of volunteers.

All our SunSmart fishing clinic sessions rely on the support of enthusiastic volunteers keen to teach the next generation all about fishing.
The vast network of artificial reefs are monitored through the reef vision program, which is made up of keen fishers who drop baited remote underwater cameras on the modules when they head out fishing.
Our big events like Snapper Guardians, Swanfish and Troutfest require a substantial amount of helping hands to ensure they run smoothly and successfully.
There are so many projects these passionate individuals give up their valuable time and energy for, to help make fishing better across WA!

If you’d like to be a Recfishwest volunteer and join our amazing group of passionate and friendly community-minded people, send us an email at info@recfishwest.org.au

This week Subsea 7 re-submitted a revised proposal to the EPA that allows for an expanded footprint and increased seabed disturbance; a significant change from the original proposal, with an increase from one hectare to 1,465 hectares. The EPA is currently seeking comment on whether or not they should assess this proposal and, if so, what level of assessment is considered appropriate. The consultation period is open for 7 days only and closes on 26th May 2019.

Whatever your view on the proposal, we encourage you take a couple of minutes to have your say via the EPA’s online consultation form; bit.ly/2Wh4sje, or you can write to the EPA via email at info.epa@dwer.wa.gov.au.
