Upper North East Region IFOA

The Integrated Forestry Operations Approval (IFOA) for the Upper North East Region was revoked and renewed as the Coastal IFOA on 16 November 2018.

The NSW Government has remade the IFOAs for the Upper North East, Lower North East, Southern and Eden regions into one Coastal IFOA , which is efficient, effective and enforceable, and reflects modern best-practice regulation.

The IFOA for the Upper North East Region was granted in 1999. The explanatory note (PDF 16KB) outlines the Upper North East IFOA’s relationship to the Regional Forest Agreements, the roles of agencies and Ministers in enforcing the IFOA, and the reporting and review requirements.

The Upper North East Region extends from approximately Sawtell to west of Guyra and north to the Queensland border.
