The Gippsland Region Sustainable Water Strategy includes policy statements and 68 actions for implementation at a regional and local scale.

Gippsland Region Sustainable Water Strategy

The Gippsland region covers the area south of the Great Dividing Range in Victoria from the Latrobe River catchment and Strzelecki Ranges to the New South Wales border in the east.

We updated the actions status in the Gippsland Region as part of the current five-yearly assessments. The assessment identified that of the 68 actions in the Strategy:

  • 25 actions are achieved and completed
  • 30 are achieved and ongoing
  • 2 are progressing through another plan
  • 11 are partly achieved or not yet achieved.

Action status

Progress report on the implementation of actions

The Progress report on the implementation of actions (Progress report) follows Recommendation 2 of the GRSWS 5-yearly assessment report: for DEECA, in partnership with organisations responsible for implementing GRSWS actions, to develop an implementation plan for GRSWS actions.

The report updates actions status since the last report (2018).

Five-yearly assessment

The 5-yearly assessment of the Gippsland Region Sustainable Water Strategy (2011) was conducted in collaboration with key stakeholders involved in the developing and implementation of the Strategy.

The assessment updates catchment inflow data, determines the status of each action, consolidates feedback about the process for development and implementation of the strategy and makes recommendations to support the review of the SWS.
