“The Patterson River boat launching facility is one of 133 projects that will receive funding from the 2006-07 program in an effort to making boating safer and more accessible for all Victorians,” he said.
“The Bracks Government has provided $450,760 towards the Patterson River boat ramp to improve accessibility for boaters who use this popular facility.
