MT KAPUTAR PEST CONTROL OPERATION

NSW National Parks and Wildlife Service (NPWS) will be conducting an aerial pest control operation in Mount Kaputar National Park from 6:00AM Monday 27 March until 6:00PM Sunday 2 April 2023. During operations, you may see a low flying helicopter and hear shooting. Some areas of the park will be closed and clearly signposted with closure notices and traffic control. Closures will impact access to Kaputar Road, some walking tracks and visitor access areas, typically for a 2-hour period. This aerial pest control operation will be conducted as part of an ongoing program to protect the ecological values of Mount Kaputar National Park and reduce impacts of feral vertebrate species on reserve and surrounding private property.

If you have any questions, please contact the NPWS Barwon Area office on Tel. 02 6792 7300. For a full list of closed areas, please visit the NPWS website:
