Abstract

"This study applies an institutional analysis framework to examine the institutional arrangements used for developing an integrated management plan for a coastal catchment in New South Wales, Australia. The Southern Catchment Management Board, the case studied, presented well defined institutional arrangements for coordinating its activities, which had the potential to lead to more integrated approaches. We suggest, however, that specific focus on coastal issues, and direct representation of coastal stakeholders would improve catchment management in coastal areas of NSW."
