Chris Jonkers was presented with the 2011 Milo Dunphy Award at the Nature Conservation Council's annual award ceremony on the 29th October.

Dr. Brian Marshall (Blue Mountains Conservation Society) commented -

"A very well deserved award for Chris and Julie's work through Streamwatch leading to the Coxs River action and the final Delta mediation

Plus data on the principal water courses on Newnes Plateau

Plus excellent photographic evidence regarding swamp damage at East Wolgan and other swamps including Long swamp

Plus the careful recording of threatened species and endangered communities in relation to Cullen Valley and Invincible mines and the Coalpac Consolidation Project

And perhaps most of all for persisting through a range of channels over the past 7 years+ as LRS/LEG and before that as LEG."
