Reef Water Quality Protection Plan
Launched in 2003, the Reef Water Quality Protection Plan (Reef Plan) is a 10-year joint Commonwealth and Queensland Government initiative.
The plan is designed to improve the quality of water that enters the Great Barrier Reef.
To achieve this, the plan consists of two objectives:
- to reduce the load of pollutants from diffuse sources in the water entering the Reef
- to rehabilitate and conserve areas of the reef catchment that play a role in removing water borne pollutants.
