Coastal Catchment Initiative

The Coastal Catchment Initiative is a program designed to protect and improve the health of coastal areas by managing water quality, ecosystems, and land use within the catchment—that is, the area of land where rainfall drains into rivers, streams, and eventually the ocean. It involves collaboration among government agencies, communities, and stakeholders to address issues like pollution, habitat loss, and erosion. By implementing sustainable practices and targeted projects, the initiative aims to preserve biodiversity, ensure clean water, and support resilient coastal environments for current and future generations.
