Purpose

The Beetaloo Regional Reference Group (BRRG) is a consultative forum for communication with key regional stakeholders based in the Beetaloo for guiding and informing the Strategic Regional Environmental and Baseline Assessment (SREBA) studies within the Beetaloo Region.

Progress and updates

The SREBA was released to the public in April 2023.

All SREBA reports and data are now available at depws.nt.gov.au/sreba

SREBA teams are available to answer any questions and queries about the information and data.

SREBA teams will continue to engage with stakeholders to share the findings of the studies until the end of June 2023.

This was the final meeting of the BBRG.
