Marine planning seeks to protect the marine, coastal and estuarine environment by ensuring that development and use is compatible with the environment it occurs within. It is an ecosystem based planning and decision support tool that provides information to coastal management agencies at State and Local Government level, as well as Natural Resources Management (NRM) Boards, to assist them to plan and manage for ecologically sustainable outcomes in the marine environment.
