How we plan to protect our

Catchment Management focuses policies and programs of government
agencies on common goals, sharing resources & expertise and
decision making with landowners and the community. It relies on
community awareness, support and participation.

Draft Strategic Plan 2008-2018
The Armadale Gosnells Landcare Group
(AGLG) is an independent, incorporated local catchment group. To
date, the activities of the AGLG have been directed by the Upper
Canning Southern Wungong Catchment Management Plan, prepared in
1999. However, since the existing plan was published there have
been some significant changes and advances to natural resource management.
To keep abreast of these changes, the AGLG have prepared a draft
Strategic Plan, which aims to direct the activities of the Group
into the future. This plan is formulated on an asset-based approach
and includes a number of actions, many of which may be implemented
in partnership with key stakeholders. The draft Strategic Plan is
open for your consideration and comments, particularly in regard
to the actions where your organisation is listed as a ‘partner
organisation’. The Plan will be open for stakeholder comment
until C.O.B on 1st September 2008.
