The
Department for Environment and Heritage plays a major role in conservation,
protection and restoration of South Australia's natural environment,
built heritage and cultural heritage. A key way in which the Department
delivers these services is through its Regional Conservation Division.
There are seven regions in the State, one of which is the Northern
and Yorke Region.
