Visions for freshwater management

As part of our work towards meeting central government on freshwater management, we need our community’s help in defining the best way to approach the effective management of freshwater by creating freshwater management units.

What is a freshwater management unit (FMU)?

An FMU can be a waterbody (such as a lake, river or wetland) or a group of waterbodies and their catchments at an appropriate scale for freshwater management. Areas within a large-scale FMU could be divided into smaller sub-FMUs during future planning processes.
