How do the water purchase projects within the NSW Wetland Recovery Program link to the RiverBank Program?
RiverBank buys water for the environment from willing sellers and, like the NSW Wetland Recovery Program, aims to improve the health of the wetlands and rivers and provide long term and permanent benefits to these environments. In addition to water purchase, the NSW Wetland Recovery Program also supports a variety of other projects which includes improving system efficiencies, investing in knowledge to improve wetland and flow management, and the development of Environmental Management Plans. This diversity of projects will ensure that environmental water is used efficiently and targeted to specific environmental outcomes and the wetlands therefore capitalise on water flows when they occur.
