Dataset: Local Land Services Spatial Layer NSW - 20140205


Description

Abstract

This dataset and its metadata statement were supplied to the Bioregional Assessment Programme by a third party and are presented here as originally supplied.

Local Land Services brings together agricultural production advice, biosecurity, natural resource management and emergency management into a single organisation. Department of Primary Industries' extension arm, Catchment Management Authorities (CMA) and Livestock Health and Pest Authorities (LHPA).

Eleven LLS regions, managed by 11 local boards cover NSW: Central Tablelands, Central West, Greater Sydney, Hunter, Murray, North Coast, Northern Tablelands, North West, Riverina, South East and Western regions.

Local Land Services regional boundaries were determined in 2013 following extensive community consultation. Each LLS region is a collation of Local Government Areas (LGA), with four exceptions where the LGA is split across two LLS regions. Those exceptions occur in Bogan, Carrathool, Hay and Jerilderie local council areas. www.lls.nsw.gov.au/our-regions/whats-my-region

LLS boundaries supercede the former CMA boundaries
