Waste Management: CCWA's waste management campaign has contributed to the establishment of the Waste 2020 process in WA, a process to overhaul the waste management system in WA. The campaign has also finally seen the release of the proposed contaminated sites legislation.
Land Conservation and salinity issues: CCWA's continuing public information campaigns have led to increased awareness of and commitment to addressing salinity with recent release of new salinity strategy and additional funding allocation.
