Surfrider Foundation National and Gold Coast-Tweed branch launch campaign against another proposal in early March aiming to prevent the transformation of the Broadwater at The Spit into a cruise ship terminal.

In 2010 Surfrider Foundation Capricorn Coast Branch representatives joined The Keppel and Fitzroy Delta Alliance (KAFDA) to lend their local resources and knowledge to assist in the prevention of 3 industrial developments, including 2 coal export terminals in the Fitzroy River Delta, Keppel Bay and North Curtis Island within the Great Barrier Reef World Heritage Area.

Surfrider Foundation’s Queensland branches are working collaboratively to support campaign initiatives led by the Boomerang Alliance (of which Surfrider Foundation Australia is a member) to lobby for legislative changes to introduce a Container Deposit Recycling Scheme (CDL) in QLD.

Surfrider Foundation representatives continue to campaign both within and outside of SMPAC to ensure a number of issues affecting the surf culture and surf amenity on the Gold Coast are recognised and addressed
