Description

Abstract:

This project provides comparative data on the number of people using the coastal and estuarine resource in Upper North East NSW. It also provides the first estimates of the magnitude of total catches taken and the potential impacts of recreational use on the resources. This project was funded by the Natural Resources Audit Council (NRAC). Covers the coastal sections of the NRAC Upper North East audit area. This is bounded by the coast from north of Coffs Harbour to Tweed Heads, westward along the Queensland-NSW state border and south to near Glen Innes and Ebor.
