(1) - (3) It is anticipated that Alcoa will provide funds for the 2010 funding round of the Swan Landcare Program. I understand negotiations between Alcoa and Perth Region NRM, who administers the program, are occurring and I am being kept informed of progress.
The Swan River Trust has provided $169,000 to the 2010 funding round and investment in future funding rounds remains a priority under the Trust's Healthy Rivers Program.
