# What locations are eligible for a Water Quality project?

Water quality credit projects under the Grazing Land Management method are available to properties within specific catchment areas. Eligibility is defined by your proximity to a relevant waterway, not just your state or region.

**Queensland Reef Catchments**

Properties within the following six Great Barrier Reef NRM Regions are eligible for Reef Credits, administered by Eco-Markets Australia: Cape York Peninsula (eastern seaboard draining catchments only), Wet Tropics, Burdekin, Mackay-Whitsunday, Fitzroy, and Burnett-Mary. Credits are issued following a rainfall event once sediment savings have been verified.

**Murray-Darling Basin**

Properties within the Murray-Darling Basin are eligible for ACWIS water improvement Credits, also administered by Eco-Markets Australia. Your property must be within 250km of the relevant waterway. The Murray-Darling Basin is a priority area for the current MLA/Verterra funded pilot programme, with initial focus on properties within two hours of Albury.

**How to check your eligibility**

The easiest way to check whether your property falls within an eligible area is to register an expression of interest. Verterra will run a catchment assessment using DROVER Monitor and confirm your eligibility as part of the initial property review. There is no cost and no obligation at this stage.
