The Tamar Estuary and Esk Rivers (TEER) Program was established in 2008 and is a regional partnership between NRM North and the Tasmanian Government, Launceston City Council, West Tamar Council, Meander Valley Council, George Town Council, Ben Lomond Water and Hydro Tasmania.

The program was established to provide a coordinated management approach and guide for solutions and investment to protect, maintain and enhance the Tamar Estuary and Esk Rivers systems from 'catchment to coast'.

The TEER Program fosters collaborative partnerships and works closely with a range of industry, community, government, research and business partners to monitor and report on ecosystem health as well as coordinating activities to reduce pollutants entering waterways.

Our aim is to improve our scientific understanding of the issues impacting upon the health of the TEER waterways so that we can better identify and target priority areas requiring investment in on-ground works.

Our Vision:

The Tamar Estuary and Esk River's Systems Healthy, Productive, Valued and Enjoyed-         Our Rivers of Life

Our Values:

• Lead with vision
• Build trust and engagement
• Be fair and open
• Make informed decisions
  for the long term
