Catchment Action Plan Presented by: Lyndal Hasselman
Review of the 2006 CAP • + • Community and stakeholder consultation • + • Technical panels • + • Reviewers phase (community, stakeholder, technical) • Public exhibition (12th November) • Submit to Minister (1st February)
Table of Contents • Lachlan Catchment • Tablelands • Mixed Farming Slopes • Lachlan Plains • Lachlan Rangelands • Lower Lachlan Floodplains
Lachlan Catchment • Broad directions • Focus on how we can leverage towards a vision • The overall package resulting from the social-ecological systems • e.g. which has revegetation as more important • e.g. which has riparian health as more important
Each social-ecological system section • System description • Values • Changes • Vision • Desired outcomes and priorities • Change mechanisms • Performance measures the current system identity the disturbances impacting on the system the future system identity where to prioritise, to make a difference what approach, to make a difference knowing if we are on track 3-5 year implementation plans for each social-ecological system
e.g. Tablelands • The Tablelands community successfully balances profitable agriculture with a high standard of environmental management and conservation. The community is diverse and connected with producers, small block owners and urban people all working together to enhance biodiversity, improve water quality, reduce impacts of invasive species and maintain the clean air and clean water of the landscape.
e.g. Lachlan Plains • The Lachlan Plains have improved land management systems with technology that improves both production and conservation. The mining industry, corporate agriculture and family farms have learnt to work together, providing a diverse economic base and ecosystem services for the region. Corporate companies are actively involved in the communities. There remains a strong sense of place and connection to the country. Cultural diversity is a valued part of the community and Aboriginal culture is respected as part of a shared Australian history. The landscape has connected habitat, improved riparian health and provides valuable outdoor recreation. Urban communities are consuming local products and also doing their part for sustainable resource use.
Program logic Program logic is the rationale behind a program – the understood cause-and-effect relationshipsbetween program activities, outputs, intermediate outcomes, and longer term desired outcomes. Represented as a diagram or matrix, program logic shows a series of expected consequences, not just a sequence of events.
The key components of a program logic can be likened to a drop landing in a pond and the resulting ripple effect towards the banks of the pond. Input Output Intermediate outcome Long term outcomes
Priorities to focus or target • Spatial parts • People parts • System parts
Each desired outcome, • has two or three priorities
Are there better priorities? Are there other priorities? Refinedpriority LachLandcare priority?
LachLandcare priority? LachLandcare action? Partner’s action?
? ? ?
Performance measures • Are we headed in the right direction • Are we on track? • towards our desired outcomes? • towards our priorities?
Levels of success Emerging – starting to show/develop
Change (policy) mechanisms • Regulation • Education and advocacy • Financial incentives • Direct action • Research
Towards the same vision • On the same priorities • On different priorities • In the same way (change mechanism) • In different ways (change mechanisms) relative to our strengths
What’s important to our communities $ • “What do you value about this landscape or place? Select three responses.” Environment Personal Community
