A number of reports and publications relating to the Moggill Creek catchment have been published since the formation of the MCCG, some of which are listed below. Several of these relate to projects funded by the Commonwealth NHT Fund or its replacements. There have been two strategic Plans/Business Plans that described in detail the objectives and strategies of the Group and identified the specific issues and challenges facing the catchment community.

There have been three University Honours Thesis reports from students supported by the MCCG and partly supervised by Group members. These were particularly useful in bringing together information about the catchment's land and water resources, and the conclusions of the research provided useful insights into specific matters, which have subsequently been used by the Group.

The most recent reports or publications have provided practical guidelines on managing the land and water resources, and horses in the Moggill Creek catchment and Pullen Pullen Catchments.
