River Health Program
Long Swamp on the headwaters of the Coxs River
This program provides funding for landholders and local government to deliver on ground improvements to the health of the Hawkesbury Nepean River system – a catchment of national significance.
The CMA recognises that the health of the Hawkesbury Nepean River must be improved and managed sustainably so it can continue to provide the many benefits to so many millions of Australians.
