🚨Cockburn Sound is at a critical turning point.

Two massive developments are being proposed in an ecosystem that is already under significant environmental pressure:

⚓ AUKUS projects including the first maintenance and servicing base for US nuclear submarines outside the United States.

🚢 Westport, which would move shipping operations from Fremantle to Kwinana and require what could be Australia's largest-ever dredging project, cutting a shipping channel through vital seagrass meadows.

At the same time, the WA Government has declared the Western Trade Coast State Development Area (June 2026), giving it powers to fast-track priority projects and potentially reduce the level of public scrutiny and consultation.

This is why the current review of the Cockburn Sound State Environmental Policy is so important.

🐟 The government is seeking feedback from people and organisations who know, use and care about Cockburn Sound.

🛶 Whether you're involved in conservation, recreation, community activities or industry, your voice can help shape the future of the Sound.

🌊 Cockburn Sound (Derbal Nara) is one of Western Australia’s most important marine environments, valued for its environmental, cultural, conservation, and recreational significance.

👪 The Department of Water and Environmental Regulation is revising the State Environmental Policy to help protect these values for future generations.

🐟 As part of this process, they are seeking feedback from people and organisations who know and use the Sound.

🛶 Whether you are involved in industry, recreation, conservation, or community activities, your input is welcome.
