Overview IntroductionIntroduction New NRETAS fundingNew NRETAS funding Nutrient monitoring and researchNutrient monitoring and research Daly River Monitoring Status ReportDaly River Monitoring Status Report DiscussionDiscussion

DRMAG Suggested Approach Phase 1: –Coordinated reporting of current monitoring (focus on pressures) Phase 2: –New monitoring by NTG and community –Dependent on extra resources

Current Work NRETAS funding $60k: Nutrient Monitoring Nutrient Limitation Research Daly River Monitoring Status Report

Nutrient Monitoring and Research Why nutrients? Most likely impact of development: increased nutrients Modelling shows potential doubling of algal biomass with nutrient addition Some doubt about accuracy of historical nutrient data

Proposed Nutrient Monitoring Dry Season 2011 Extensive nutrient sampling using new more accurate analysis technique Determine reference condition and water quality objectives Provide opportunities for community involvement in sampling

Nutrient Limitation Research Limited information on nutrient limitation and likely effects of nutrient increases Nutrient limitation research in collaboration with TRaCK

Bring together information from different agencies Status Report Provide template for future reporting Introduce P-S-R model Reporting by subcatchment to highlight areas of greatest pressure

Status Report Style similar to Darwin Harbour Report Cards
