Closed landfill site - Restoration of nature
Eumundi
The old Eumundi Landfill site is now being carefully restored to support nature again. Council is making sure the closed landfill is safely covered and contained to protect the surrounding area as the old waste decomposes.
| Start Date | |
| Duration | 4-6 weeks |
At the same time, we will be transforming the site into a space where new plants can grow and, over time, become a home for local wildlife.
We will use a method called Phytocapping, which is a way to safely cover old landfill sites using plants instead of heavy clay. The plants help keep rainwater out of the waste below and help hold the soil in place. Over time, this method helps turn the landfill into a green space that can support nature.
This process has been successfully utilised on closed landfills across Australia.

Russel Family Park - Wastewater treatment and disposal
Montville
Sunshine Coast Council is upgrading the wastewater treatment facilities at the existing toilet amenities and the on-site irrigation of treated wastewater at Russell Family Park, Montville.
| Start Date | |
| Duration | 1 Month |
The proposed application area for the treated wastewater is shown in Figure 1 of the project news, within the south-western area of Russell Family Park. An on-site irrigation system will disperse the treated water, operating daily in the early hours of the morning.
Existing fence lines within the proposed application area will be removed. The proposed application area is not expected to negatively influence the park as the large open space will remain and the treatment processes will help manage any unpleasant odours.
Treatment and disposal of wastewater will comply with the requirements of the State Government’s Department of Environment and Science.
