Who or what is CWEC?
Central West Environment Council (CWEC) is an umbrella organization representing conservation groups and individuals in central west NSW working to protect the local environment for future generations.
Groups from Bathurst, Orange, Blayney, Lithgow, Rylstone, Mudgee and Dubbo are represented and we have some individual members from areas with no environmental groups.CWEC provides group members with the opportunity to meet, socialise, exchange ideas, get training and advice as well as help with submissions and advocacy.
We meet quarterly by zoom and with one or two face to face meetings each year.
Next meeting: Sunday 2nd August 10 am
By zoom

ECCO turns 20.
ECCO (Environmentally Concerned Citizens of Orange) turned 20 years old this year. This milestone was celebrated on Saturday 18th July at the Lord Anson Hotel with a lunch (including a splendid cake) and interesting talks about the history and achievement of the group.

THE HUNTING BILL Thanks to a combined effort from many groups, including CWEC and particularly Gun Control Australia, this Bill, which would have allowed recreational hunting in national parks, has been withdrawn. Well done to everyone concerned!
The CWEC submission to the
Draft Water Sharing Plan for Macquarie/Wambuul Bogan Unregulated Rivers Water Sources 2025 is available on the submissions page or read it here:
