Multiple Ecological Communities
A funding round to support multiple ecological communities in NSW was conducted in the Central West, Namoi, and Border Rivers-Gwydir Catchment Management Authority regions in 2010-11, and targeted the following ecological communities listed under the Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999:
- white box, yellow box, Blakely's red gum grassy woodland and derived native grasslands (box gum grassy woodland)
- natural grasslands on basalt and fine-textured alluvial plains of northern NSW and southern Queensland (basalt and alluvial grassland)
- weeping myall woodland.

The funding round offered private land managers the opportunity to be paid for up to fifteen years to undertake agreed management actions, over and above normal regulatory responsibilities, to protect one or more of the identified ecological communities on their land.
