End-of-life vessel management

What are we doing?

Transport for NSW (Transport) is developing options to manage vessels that are reaching or have reached the end of their useful life to mitigate potential environmental risks and enhance access to moorings.

What have we achieved so far?

Work is in progress on policy options to improve management of vessels in NSW waterways that pose an increased risk to boaters and the environment.

In 2023 Transport developed a range of Policy Options and undertook public consultation.

The options aim to improve management of recreational vessels that are reaching or have reached the end of their useful life.

Response to the public consultation process is expected to be released by early 2025.
