About the Award :
The Murray-Darling
Basin Commission Rivercare Award is made to a community organisation,

rehabilitation of your waterway.
- Integrated
your plan into relevant local and regional action plans and the
plan is widely supported by the community.
- Achieved
an improvement in waterway health (eg water quality, riverine
biodiversity and habitat, and riverbank stability) as a result
of the project.
- Consulted
and worked with others, including the community, government and/or
business to help achieve sustainable natural resource management
for your waterway.
