Notes

"a WISE database"--Label. "WISE stands for Water Information System for the Environment, and it is a comprehensive database for rivers and wetlands in specific catchments ... The broad aim of the WISE project is to raise an awareness and understanding of rivers and wetlands in the community."--Booklet.

"Funding for the Barwon-Darling Catchment Rivers & Wetlands CD-ROM was provided by NSW Department of Land and Water Conservation and the Western Catchment Board through Environment Australia and the Natural Heritage Trust. Many individuals, communities and organisations contributed information for the project, including managers, researchers, policymakers and librarians from the Department of Land and Water Conservation (NSW), Environment Australia, the NSW National Parks and Wildlife Service, NSW Fisheries, NSW Agriculture, the Environmental Protection Authority (NSW) and the Murray-Darling Basin Commission."--Booklet.
