Updating the Mackay Whitsunday Water Quality Improvement plan (2014-2021)

The WQIP published by Reef Catchments (2008) has been a major resource for local industry & science, setting a benchmark for WQIP's in Qld. The updated WQIP will set new targets & objectives for regional water quality management incorporating latest knowledge for port expansion & coastal urban development. This will require an update of: -Monitoring programs to detect changes at sentinal sites & high BMP activity sub-catchments -Urban ABCD frameworks & ABCD modelling predictions -Urban & ecosystem health data & prioritisation systems to support implementation roll-out -EV's, WQO's & key pollutants of concern -Targets linked to management interventions -GIS layers -Consultation with industry, science, stakeholders & community

由礁流域管理机构（Reef Catchments）于2008年发布的水质改善计划（Water Quality Improvement Plan, WQIP），长期以来都是当地产业与科研领域的重要支撑资源，为昆士兰州（Qld）境内的水质改善计划树立了行业标杆。
此次更新后的水质改善计划将结合港口扩张与沿海城市开发的最新研究成果，为区域水质管理工作设定全新的目标与方向。为此，需对以下内容进行更新：
- 用于在基准监测站点（sentinel sites）与高最佳管理实践（Best Management Practices, BMP）活跃度子流域中检测环境变化的监测计划
- 城市ABCD框架及ABCD模型预测结果
- 支撑方案落地推广的城市与生态系统健康数据及优先级排序系统
- 重点关注的污染物、水质目标（Water Quality Objectives, WQO）与EVs
- 与管理干预措施挂钩的量化目标
- GIS（地理信息系统）图层
- 与产业界、科研界、利益相关方及社区开展的磋商工作
