Our role as caretakers of the region’s river health relies on our leadership and business performance including the management of the Environment Water Reserve created under the Water Act. We achieve this either directly or through our partnerships with the Department of Environment, Land, Water and Planning, Tust for Nature, local government, the Murray-Darling Basin Commission, water corporations, educational institutions, research institutes, the private sector and of course the communities we serve.
These important relationships allow the North Central CMA to continue to deliver significantly bigger and smarter NRM projects relating to:
- waterways and wetlands
- water quality
- biodiversity
- environmental water reserves
- Landcare support and funding coordination
- floodplain management and regional drainage
- regional responses to climate change
- salinity
- threatened species recovery
- pest plants and pest animals
- vegetation enhancement and restoration
- soil health
- cultural heritage
