The Restoration Strategy includes an introduction to the strategy and priority project summaries.
Project summaries provide a brief overview of each project, including the name, number, description of location, summary of proposed actions and estimate of total project cost. Projects are also placed into three priority categories – very high, high and medium.
For more detailed information about each project, see the project assessment forms (PAFs) in Priority projects.
