PALS work alongside WA mining industry environmental teams, helping them fulfil their environmental obligations. PAL’s expertise in low rainfall tree establishment ensures the projects are carried out efficiently. The qualified planting team implement the works with minimal fuss to ensure the outcomes are met on time and on budget.

Revegetation and direct seeding along road corridors, basins and areas disturbed by the road and overpass construction. Storage, planning and planting of native trees and shrubs to correspond to the integral landscape plan.

Establishing vegetation on sites where the topsoils/gravel have been stripped from the surface can be challenging therefore site preparation and species selection is the key to good long term established. Dragging the stock pile of top soil back over the quarry is ideal but in many cases this is full of weeds and very limited in supply. Deep ripping will ensure the trees roots will penetrate the sub soils in search for moisture. Incorporating native local species to the site is paramount to ensure the site is returned to originality as quick as possible.

As Perth and regional cities expand the outskirts are being sub divided into residential lots. The removal of paddocks and bushland for housing puts pressure on the environment, especially water catchments and enhancing the development with tree cover. Local governments have placed major emphasis and conditions on the protection and enhancement of these sensitive areas. PALS works alongside local council environmental teams and developers to ensure these areas are planted with additional vegetation local to the area and maintained.

The revegetation of creek lines is the key to salinity control on a catchment scale as well provide a corridor for fauna.
