Intensive Land Use Zone

The National Land & Water Resources Audit (the Audit) is assisting with the collation of information for the ‘intensive land use zone’ as a result of a workshop held in August 2004, with representatives from Australian Government, state and territory agencies and some regional organisations.

Workshop participants discussed the needs for integrated regional assessments and identified a number of possible activities that the Audit could undertake:

• a national catchment condition assessment-scoping study
• regional reporting
• case studies of current regional/catchment integrated assessment

The Audit Advisory Council Reference Group was formed to provided advice and comment to the Audit on the development of the projects.
