Background to Regional Catchment Investment Plans
|
The RCIP is an integrated program of Natural Resource Management projects. The plan aims to deliver the regionally agreed priorities of the five-year Regional Catchment Strategy. The Victorian and Australian Governments are key investors of projects presented in the RCIP. Following Ministerial endorsement of the RCIP, the North Central CMA coordinates project delivery in conjunction with regional partners.
Purpose of the Regional Catchment Investment Plan
The purpose of the Regional Catchment Investment Plan is to:
- Articulate Natural Resource Management investment priorities as outlined in the Regional Catchment Strategy
- Provide investors with sufficient project information to allow them to make sound investment decisions
- Engage a wide range of key stakeholders in the investment plan development process to enable integrated outcomes
