What are regional NRM bodies?
Regional NRM bodies are responsible for protecting and managing Australia's natural resources. To do this, regional NRM plans that outline how a regional body will identify and achieve the region's NRM targets were developed.
There are 56 bodies in Australia, fourteen of which are located in Queensland.
For information on any of the regional bodies around Australia, visit the Australian Government NRM website.
