In recent times there have been a growing number of major resource developments and commercial activities taking place on Aboriginal land. These include: • minerals and energy exploration projects; • infrastructure relating to railway, gas pipeline and army training areas; • national parks; • a significant increase in residential and commercial lot leasing; • enhanced natural resource management; and • pastoral activities. The NLC operating environment is unique, and it is important that the organisation continually adapts to support and foster new and innovative projects and developments that will underpin prosperity in remote Aboriginal communities.
