This program aims to increase the awareness about the risk of salinity in the development industry and to build the capacity of the local councils to effectively manage urban salinity. In 2007 the project supported the Urban Salt 2007 conference, published a "Repair and Maintaining Salinity Affected Houses" booklet, and produced a "Building in a Saline Environment - An Awareness Course for NSW" resource package.  These resources are available Publlications - Project Resources section of this website.
