Action item update

Implementation progress

The Strategic Regional and Environmental Baseline Assessment (SREBA) Framework PDF (10.4 MB) was released in July 2020.

Government determined a SREBA was required for the Beetaloo Sub-basin. The region-specific Scopes of Work for each of the six baseline studies were approved by the Minister for the Environment.

All of the SREBA baseline studies have been completed and a Baseline Report prepared for each study domain. The outcomes of the SREBA are summarised and synthesised in the Beetaloo SREBA Regional Report.
