Baykeeper Neil Blake talks about the Grey to Green reef at Point Richards, installed 12 months ago by the City of Greater Geelong to address 15 years of Beach erosion. Neil has been busy looking at the effects of the reef, including doing some surveys to examine the intertidal sediment mollusc ecology. We catch up with Sean Doherty about this weeks developments in the Fight for the Bight campaign have you got your comments in? Only 3 days remaining before public comments close.
