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

Regional Landcare

The SMCMA is conducting a three- year Regional Landcare Facilitator (RLF) project.
The project seeks to identify and support primary producers in the Georges River and Parramatta River catchments.

It is being conducted in partnership with OceanWatch Australia, and funded by the Australian Government's Caring for our Country Initiative.

This project will assist the SMCMA to understand the issues and challenges of managing land for sustainable production on the edge of the metropolitan area. As a first step the Landcare Facilitators are documenting agricultural production in Sydney’s south-west and will be meeting with farmers who may need support to improve their land management practices.
