The South-west Bioregional Profile has been released. The Profile is the first major milestone for the South-west Marine Bioregional Plan. This planning process is being carried out under Section 176 of the Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999 (the EPBC Act). There are three key milestones in the creation of the Bioregional Plan: the Bioregional Profile, the Draft Marine Bioregional Plan and the final Marine Bioregional Plan.

“Peter Garrett is being bold by identifying 54% of the South West Region as areas for further interest. This is a once-in-a-life-time opportunity to help the Minister create large marine sanctuaries to secure the future of our unique sea life off Australia’s south-west.”
