Strategic Plan for Natural Resource Management in the PDLA
Introduction
What is the Strategic Plan for Natural Resource Management (NRM) in PDLA?
A guide for property owners and community groups in the Parkes and District Landcare Area (PDLA) to coordinate actions to improve the environment.
The Plan:
- Assesses the environment of the PDLA (almost 1 million hectares)
- Identifies environmental issues and their locations in the PDLA
- Prioritises these issue and locations
- Proposes strategic environmental actions.
Why was it prepared?
- To improve local understanding of environmental issues in the PDLA
- To direct limited financial and human resources to best effect
- To expand investment in the environment from private, commercial and government sources
- To help the 25 Landcare and other community groups in each of the 18 subcatchments of the PDLA to:
- assess the natural resource management situation in their locality;
- agree on priority natural resource management issues
- prepare community environmental plans and individual property action plans
- prepare specific funding proposals to activate these environmental plans.
What does it provide?
- For Catchment Management Authorities and others sponsoring sustainable development: a means to coordinate NRM investments and activities in the PDLA for maximum impact.
- For farmers: NRM information for planning and implementing NRM activities on their properties, and for obtaining funding support.
- For town's people: information about their local environment and what NRM actions they can take to sustain and improve it.
