Riverkeeper Program Report Card 2012-2013

Report

As part of our life and livelihood, the Georges River catchment is a much-loved part of the local environment for over 1.2 million residents and countless visitors. From intact pristine wilderness to urban cityscapes the Georges River flows through the changing landscapes of southern Sydney, providing a place for people to unwind and participate in a wide range of leisure activities. The catchment is home to several dozen cultural and linguistic backgrounds, a signature of contemporary Australia. Georges River users are a cross-section of the entire catchment community, whose interests, hobbies and uses of the river are as diverse as the broader population.
