Basin Catchment Management Authorities

In managing the Basin’s water resources, MDBA works directly with 21 Catchment Management Authorities that work, in turn, with regional communities to restore and improve natural resources. CMAs are responsible for ensuring that decisions about natural resource management are made within the catchment.
