    Caring for the main source of Hobart's drinking water

The Derwent Catchment Project

At around one-fifth the total area of Tasmania, the Derwent Catchment is a vast region with extraordinarily diverse landscapes. Within its borders are hydro-electricity operations, agriculture, forestry and aquaculture, and it's also one of the state's favourite tourist destinations. The bulk of Hobart's drinking water originates here.
​
The Derwent Catchment Project was set up to assist landholders to restore and maintain natural and agricultural landscapes across this challenging environment, to ensure a prosperous and sustainable future for the Derwent Catchment.

Our works team is available for weed control and revegetation projects for private landowners.
Derwent Catchment Project is co-funded by the Central Highlands Council and the Derwent Valley Council to undertake natural resource management programs.
