Welcome | What's New

The Southern Rivers Catchment Management Authority (SRCMA) plays a vital role in the management of South Coast catchments from Stanwell Park in the North to the Victorian border, including the Snowy River.

SRCMA was established in 2004 by the NSW Government to ensure the protection and sustainable development of land, vegetation and water resources within the catchment. It answers directly to the Minister for Environment and Climate Change.

SRCMA sees the development of strong partnerships in natural resource management as critical to its success, and works closely with local communities, farmers and other land managers, Landcare, government agencies, local government, Aboriginal people, and industries within the catchment to achieve its goals.

Building on the two catchment blueprints developed by the former catchment management boards, SRCMA will:

implement a catchment action plan and investment strategies targeting the areas of highest priority, recommend and manage incentive programs aimed at engaging local communities in natural resource management, provide landholders with the information they need to develop property vegetation plans, and provide education and training in natural resource management.
