Greenways Land Trust has been working to manage invasive species in the estuary for over 5 years, with intensive progress being made with the Restoring Ecological Function in the Campbell River Estuary since 2016. In 2018/19, 4,570 kg of yellow flag iris was removed; 570 kg of purple loosestrife; and 540 kg of Scotch broom and Himalayan blackberry was sent to landfill. Treatments of broom and blackberry on 8.7 hectares of upland habitat were carried out, with disposal taking place on site. One infestation of Japanese knotweed was treated within the estuary, with another 11 infestations being monitored after potentially being eradicated. Two new knotweed infestations were found in areas where they are unable to be treated due to restrictions on herbicide use. Greenways facilitated over 100 volunteers and 250 volunteers hours towards carrying out action on invasive species in the Campbell River Estuary over 13 events in 2018/19.
