2030 Natural Resource Management Strategy for Northern Tasmania

The 2030 Natural Resource Management (NRM) Strategy for Northern Tasmania provides a framework to facilitate sustainable management of northern Tasmania’s natural resources. The Strategy is one of three in Tasmania and is complemented by the strategies for southern Tasmania and the Cradle Coast region.

Tasmania’s three natural resource management organisations, NRM South, NRM North and Cradle Coast Authority have released their new regional strategies through to 2030. Developed collaboratively across regions, the strategies adopt a consistent, scalable, whole-of-state NRM framework that the NRM organisations will use to prioritise their investment.

Produced in consultation with specialists, industry, government, and community stakeholders, the strategies identify the natural resource management priorities and emerging issues unique to each of Tasmania’s NRM regions. Leveraging investment from both the Tasmanian and Australian Governments, the strategies will assist the NRM organisations to plan, develop and deliver significant on-ground actions across the state.

Focusing on the three primary themes of Land, Water and Biodiversity, the strategies provide a blueprint for the actions that each NRM organisation will focus on through to 2030. With a view to long-term outcomes that include:

  • support for Aboriginal communities;
  • improving landscape resilience to climate change;
  • improved waterway health, and
  • reducing impacts on Tasmania’s threatened species.

The regional strategies maintain a strong focus on improving the condition of natural resources and supporting sustainable production using specific and measurable criteria.

Now formally approved by the Tasmanian and Australian Governments, the strategies were officially launched on 4 August 2022.
