PART 4 Appendices 44.1.1 RRiveriver reachesreaches inin riparianriparian llandsands Appendix 4.1 Appendix River reaches in riparian reaches River mmanagementanagement tthemeheme ccategoriesategories lands management theme This Appendix lists the reaches according to the three riparian land management categories that have been identifi ed for river reaches assessed in this strategy (see detailed discussion in Volume 1, section 2.4). The three riparian land management categories are: • Focus on CONSERVATION • Focus on ASSISTED REGENERATION • Focus on REVEGETATION Tables A1, A2 and A3 list the reaches occurring in each of the 3 riparian lands management theme categories. The reaches are shown in Figure A1. Focus on CONSERVATION river reaches There are 41 reaches in the focus on conservation category in the catchment making up a total of 631 km and 15% of total river length.
