Assessments are made in consultation with stakeholders, and consider social, environmental and economic conditions and management practices. After a catchment has been assessed, a series of actions are recommended and evaluated.
We commit to which actions can be implemented and communicate to the community about these specific actions that lead to improved management of environmental and social values in the catchment.
We continue to evaluate and update our approach to catchment reviews so that we keep improving this important aspect of our environmental management
The King and Yolande Sustainability Review is the fifth catchment review to be undertaken. There are three power stations within the two catchments; John Butters (King Catchment), Upper Lake Margaret and Lower Lake Margaret (both in the Yolande Catchment).
King Catchment This area is defined as Lake Burbury, and the King River from Crotty Dam to where it enters Macquarie Harbour.
Yolande Catchment This area is defined as Lake Margaret and the Yolande River, above where the river joins the Henty River.
As part of the King and Yolande Sustainability Review, we invited stakeholders and community members to have their say by completing our community survey. The survey was open to any person, group or business with an interest in the King and Yolande catchment area.
From the feedback and conversations we’ve had with the community and our Information Review, we were able to find out where there are gaps in knowledge and what you valued most. This has allowed us to develop the following factsheets on information that matters most to you:
