Editing Great Artesian Basin (section)

==Whole of Basin management==
The Great Artesian Basin underlies parts of Queensland, New South Wales, South Australia and the Northern Territory, which each operate under different legislative frameworks, policies and resource management approaches. In 2020 the [[Australian government]] [[Department of Climate Change, Energy, the Environment and Water]] published the Great Artesian Basin Strategic Management Plan, which was prepared together with the individual governments and in consultation with the GABCC, stakeholders and public feedback.<ref>{{cite web |url=https://www.dcceew.gov.au/water/policy/national/great-artesian-basin/strategic-management-plan |title=Great Artesian Basin Strategic Management Plan |date=2020 |access-date=26 January 2024}}</ref>
