Community drop-in sessions are being held to discuss the Coastal Management Program (CMP) for the Hawkesbury Nepean River System which includes both Pittwater and Brisbane Water.
Central Coast Council is one of six councils involved in the CMP for the river system.
The CMP sets the long-term strategy for the co-ordinated management of the system with a focus on achieving the objectives of the NSW Coastal Management Act (2016).
The CMP will primarily focus on the coastal management areas within the tidal section stretching over 145km of the Hawkesbury River from Broken Bay up to Yarramundi near Richmond.
The CMP also covers the waterways of Pittwater and Brisbane Water which converge with the Lower Hawkesbury River at Broken Bay.
Drop-in sessions to learn about the project, and for residents to share their thoughts, are being held across the Central Coast.
They are:
October 13, 9am-4pm, Woytopia at Woy Woy South School, 14 Waterloo Ave, Woy Woy;
