The Adelaide and Mt Lofty Ranges NRM Board, must develop its regional plans such that they harmonise with the State NRM Plan.
South Australia's first integrated State Natural Resources Management (NRM) Plan was released by the Minister for Environment and Conservation on 15 February 2006. The State NRM Plan is a key component of integrated natural resources management arrangements under the Natural Resources Management Act 2004.
The policies and strategies set out in the Plan will inform activities of government agencies, regional NRM boards and groups, local government, community and industry partners. It will ensure that management actions are better integrated to more effectively and efficiently protect and enhance South Australia's natural systems - our catchments, bioregions, landscapes and ecosystems, both terrestrial and marine - whether they are managed for production, settlement or conservation.
