Sydney Metropolitan Catchment Management Authority has merged with Hawkesbury-Nepean Catchment Management Authority

The NSW Government recently announced that the Sydney Metropolitan Catchment Management Authority has been merged with the Hawkesbury-Nepean Catchment Management Authority as part of the changes to the regional service delivery model. From January, 2014 Local Land Services, a new regionally-based organisation will replace the Catchment Management Authorities, Livestock, Health & Pest Authorities and incorporate agricultural services currently provided by Agriculture NSW.

The Hawkesbury-Nepean Catchment Management Authority's area of operation now includes all the areas previously covered by the Sydney Metropolitan Catchment Management Authority. This website will now become an archived website. For more information about Hawkesbury Nepean Catchment Management Authority, and to find out about upcoming events visit www.hn.cma.nsw.gov.au

This program aims to increase the awareness about the risk of salinity in the development industry and to build the capacity of the local councils to effectively manage urban salinity. In 2007 the project supported the Urban Salt 2007 conference, published a "Repair and Maintaining Salinity Affected Houses" booklet, and produced a "Building in a Saline Environment - An Awareness Course for NSW" resource package.  These resources are available Publlications - Project Resources section of this website.
