SCENV3120 Landscape Restoration and Mine Site Rehabilitation
This unit explores the ecological and philosophical basis of restoration and mined land rehabilitation. This is achieved by consideration of significant ecological problems needing active restoration (such as mined landscapes, salinity, erosion, habitat loss, weeds, bush encroachment). Other key elements of restoration are explored such as political programs relevant to restoration and mined land rehabilitation (such as Landcare plans, catchment nutrient and salinity plans, and State of the Environment reporting), planning of restoration and mine site projects (including objectives, strategies, budgeting), restoration and rehabilitation: funding opportunities and requirements, monitoring and management of restoration and rehabilitation efforts (mine site rehabilitation and habitat restoration efforts) and legislation and governance (federal, state and local; international agreements and obligations) relating to landscape restoration and mine site rehabilitation. Restoration and rehabilitation in the face of current and projected climate change also receives attention.

A CSP is subsidised by the Australian Government and students pay a contribution amount. Each unit is classified into a band, depending on the study area of the unit (this discipline may be different from the study area of your course).
2025 contribution amount* $1,164
2025 grandfathered contribution amount* $1,164
Grandfathered contribution amount - if you are a continuing student, who commenced your course before 1 January 2021, you will continue paying the same amount as you would have, had legislative reforms not been implemented, for any units that would otherwise have an increased student contribution amount.
