Geometry Type: esriGeometryPolygon

Description: <DIV STYLE="text-align:Left;"><DIV><DIV><P><SPAN>The Natural Resource Management (NRM) Regions dataset is maintained for the purpose of authoritative reporting on the Australian Government's NRM investments. The dataset is designed to cover all Australian territory where Australian Government funded NRM projects might take place and includes major islands, external territories, and state and coastal waters in addition to the NRM regional boundaries. </SPAN></P><P><SPAN /></P><P><SPAN>Whilst the boundaries of NRM Regions are defined by legislation in some states and territories, this dataset should not be used to represent legal boundaries in any way. It is an administrative dataset developed for the purpose of reporting and public information. It should be noted that from time to time the states and/or territories may revise their regional boundaries in accordance with local needs and therefore alterations to either the attribution or boundaries of the data may occur in the future.</SPAN></P><P><SPAN /></P><P><SPAN>Current Version</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>In total, the 2020 version dataset comprises 63 map objects for 61 NRM regions. These comprise 56 mainland regions (of which two have associated large islands as distinct map objects) and a further five external territory islands.</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>The 2020 version updates the previous version (2017) with changes to boundaries of South Australian NRM Regions to align with new regional landscape boundaries (https://data.sa.gov.au/data/dataset/landscapes-sa-boundaries) under the Landscapes South Australia Act 2019 (SA) Act which replaced the Natural Resources Management Act 2004 (SA) Act. Minor edits were made to remove gaps, slivers and overlaps so the new SA boundaries aligned with non-SA NRM Regions. The "Hills and Fleurieu" and "Green Adelaide" Landscapes SA boundaries were merged to form the single 4010 "Adelaide and Mount Lofty Ranges" NRM Region, although at the request of the data owner, the previous names and internal boundaries were retained within this NRM region. </SPAN><SPAN> </SPAN><SPAN>Additionally a number of gaps and overlaps in the Western Australia NRM regions were fixed. </SPAN></P><P><SPAN /></P><P><SPAN>Previous Version</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>The 2017 version updates the previous version (2016 version 2) with changes to boundaries of six of Western Australia’s seven NRM regions (only Peel-Harvey Region is unchanged). The new WA boundaries are as agreed during 2017 by NRMWA, a collective of all incorporated NRM groups in that state. </SPAN></P><P><SPAN>There are a few changes of NRM names in Qld, Tas and WA from the 2016 version based on line area’s suggestion. </SPAN></P><P><SPAN>The 2017 version also removes the NRM_BODY data (added for 2016 version 2) and the non-spatial OceanWatch map label previously included. These two changes relate to Australian Government administrative arrangements for NRM funding delivery.</SPAN></P><P><SPAN /></P><P><SPAN>Attributes</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>The principle data fields in the 2017 version dataset are:</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>- NRM_Region </SPAN></P><P><SPAN>- State</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>- Area_Description (land area, state and coastal waters, territorial sea, Torres Strait)</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>- NRM_ID</SPAN></P><P><SPAN /></P><P><SPAN>NRM_ID and NRM_Region Names grouped by state/territory are as follows:</SPAN></P><P><SPAN /></P><P><SPAN>New South Wales (11 regions + 1 extra map object for Lord Howe Island)</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>1010 Central Tablelands</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>1020 Central West</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>1030 Greater Sydney</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>1040 Hunter</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>1050 Murray</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>1060 North Coast (excludes Lord Howe Island)</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>1061 North Coast - Lord Howe Island</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>1070 North West NSW</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>1080 Northern Tablelands</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>1090 Riverina</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>1100 South East NSW</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>1110 Western</SPAN></P><P><SPAN /></P><P><SPAN>Victoria (10 regions)</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>2010 Corangamite</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>2020 East Gippsland</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>2030 Glenelg Hopkins</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>2040 Goulburn Broken</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>2050 Mallee</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>2060 North Central</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>2070 North East</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>2080 Port Phillip and Western Port</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>2090 West Gippsland </SPAN></P><P><SPAN>2100 Wimmera</SPAN></P><P><SPAN /></P><P><SPAN>Queensland (15 regions) </SPAN></P><P><SPAN>3010 Burnett Mary</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>3020 Cape York</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>3030 Condamine</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>3040 Co-operative Management Area (between Cape York and Northern Gulf)</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>3050 Desert Channels</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>3060 Fitzroy</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>3070 Burdekin </SPAN></P><P><SPAN>3080 Northern Gulf</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>3090 Maranoa Balonne and Border Rivers </SPAN></P><P><SPAN>3100 Mackay Whitsunday</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>3110 South East Queensland</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>3120 South West Queensland</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>3130 Southern Gulf</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>3140 Wet Tropics</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>3150 Torres Strait</SPAN></P><P><SPAN /></P><P><SPAN>South Australia (8 regions) </SPAN></P><P><SPAN>4010 Adelaide and Mount Lofty Ranges</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>4020 Alinytjara Wilurara</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>4030 Eyre Peninsula</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>4040 Kangaroo Island</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>4050 Northern and Yorke</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>4060 South Australian Arid Lands</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>4070 South Australian Murray Darling Basin</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>4080 South East</SPAN></P><P><SPAN /></P><P><SPAN>Western Australia (7 regions)</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>5010 Northern Agricultural Region</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>5020 Peel-Harvey Region</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>5030 Swan Region </SPAN></P><P><SPAN>5040 Rangelands Region</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>5050 South Coast Region</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>5060 South West Region</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>5070 Avon River Basin</SPAN></P><P><SPAN /></P><P><SPAN>Tasmania (3 regions + 1 extra map object for Macquarie Island)</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>6010 North West NRM Region</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>6020 North NRM Region</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>6030 South NRM Region (excludes Macquarie Islands)</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>6031 South NRM Region - Macquarie Islands</SPAN></P><P><SPAN /></P><P><SPAN>Northern Territory (1 region)</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>7010 Northern Territory</SPAN></P><P><SPAN /></P><P><SPAN>Australian Capital Territory (1 region)</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>8010 ACT</SPAN></P><P><SPAN /></P><P><SPAN>External Territories (5 regions) </SPAN></P><P><SPAN>9010 Ashmore and Cartier Islands</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>9020 Christmas Island</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>9030 Cocos Keeling Islands</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>9040 Heard and McDonald Islands</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>9050 Norfolk Island</SPAN></P></DIV></DIV></DIV>

Copyright Text: The NRM region boundaries (2006 base layer) are primarily based on data and information supplied by the relevant state and territory government agencies. Geoscience Australia's Australian Maritime Boundaries (2014) and Geodata Coast 100K (2004) data were also used in the development of this dataset. Local Land Service region boundaries were sourced from the NSW Government.
