Environmental Values and Water Quality Objectives

The interim Environmental Values for Botany Bay were compiled through a series of workshops held throughout the Botany Bay Catchment from September 2007 to March 2008 (thanks to all those who attended and put forward their ideas). The workshop included a questionnaire that was analysed and released as a report in April 2008.
