regional state of the environment reports

Environmental issues are not restricted to Council boundaries.  Regional State of the Environment (RSoE) Reports are recommended by the NSW Government and used by some groups of Councils in NSW to enable a better understanding of the state of the environment in a regional context and to identify future collaborative pathways.  More specifically, a regional approach to reporting:

•  facilitates a better understanding of the state of the environment across the region
• encourages collaboration in regard to partnering on projects and sharing ideas and resources
• assists in the management of shared environmental resources
• forges stronger regional links across participating Councils.
