The Kerang Wetlands complex forms an extensive system of over 100 wetlands. It consists of 23 lakes and swamps that cover an area of 9,419 hectares. These wetlands differ widely in permanence, depth, salinity and levels of aquatic vegetation cover. The Kerang Wetlands are recognised for their representativeness of Victorian wetlands, flora and fauna values and for the system’s significance as habitat for a large abundance of waterbirds. Their significance is recognised by their listing under the International Ramsar convention. The North Central CMA is the lead agency in North Central Victoria coordinating and monitoring natural resource management programs for the region.
