AnswerView source ↗
(1) The management program required by the Swan River Trust has not yet been prepared. However, the Syme review of the Swan River Trust covered this matter and the recommendations of this review are being implemented. (2) Although there is not currently an overarching management program packaged as one document, there are many programs in place that address the major issues related to managing the river systems. These include the Swan-Canning clean-up program, which was launched in 1994. It provides funds for many activities, including the monitoring of nutrients, numerous local catchment groups and research into better ways to manage nutrients in the river environment. Work is being done by the Department of Environmental Protection’s phytoplankton ecology unit. Some excellent work has also been done in collaboration with Curtin University on pollution prevention and cleaner production in commercial premises. The precinct policy plan, launched in May 2002, will address strategic planning issues within, and adjacent to, the trust management area. The recently released Riverplan will be used as a tool to implement the environmental protection policy. (3) Refer to (2). (4) The Swan River management strategy, released in 1989, primarily outlines responsibilities for land-use planning for the Swan River, including the role of the trust, local government and the Department for Planning and Infrastructure. (5) Refer to (4). (6) Not applicable.
