Riparian Permit Requirements Workshop

Welcome to Macleay Landcare's Riparian Permit Requirements Workshop,  funded by the NSW Government under Rural Recovery Support Service. The Rural Recovery Support Service is funded through the Department of Primary Industries and Regional Development. At this event, we will have industry staff presenting on potentially required permits to obtain before riparian work is conducted, including Crown lands, Natural Resource Access Regulators and North Coast Local Land Services.
