Who are we?
The Northern Gulf Resource Management Group Ltd (NGRMG) is a not-for-profit community based company made up of skilled local people with energy, cooperating to make sure our region has a healthy environment, society, culture and economy.
The Gulf Savanna and its people
The Gulf Savanna region is a compellingly beautiful, resource-rich part of the Australian outback that includes the vast outwash plains of the Gulf of Carpentaria to the West of the Great Dividing Range. This is a country steeped in history, of real outback characters, mateship, remote bush towns and wild tales blended with a rich indigenous culture.
A Resource rich country
The experiences and vistas of this country instil a sense of opportunity and optimism in anyone who lives or visits here. The massive rivers of this region begin their journey in World Heritage rainforest and forest escarpments in the east, meander through spectacular gorges, rich grasslands of the tropical savannahs, over extensive floodplains to end their journey in the Gulf of Carpentaria. Nearly a quarter of the nation’s runoff feeds the Gulf of Carpentaria, which in turn, supports an abundant harvest of prawns and other seafood that feeds the nation. Extensive isolated tracts house a magnitude of unique flora and fauna, many of which, as scientists are still discovering, are new to science.
Sustainable management for future generations
These rich landscapes are Australia’s untapped reserves — our ‘environmental savings for a rainy day’ — and may be drawn upon heavily in the future to help our nation adapt to the impacts of climate change. It is the responsibility of all Australians, especially the residents of the region, to ensure that this area is managed and developed in a way that does not deplete our ‘environmental bank balance’. We need to care for this region’s country, coasts and seas, for now and for our future generations.
