We work closely with government agencies when our regulatory responsibilities overlap. This includes a memorandum of understanding with the Environment Protection Authority (PDF 816.5 KB) relating to pollution and smoke management; and with the Department of Primary Industries, Parks, Water and Environment on Agreed Procedures for the Management of Threatened Species (PDF 761.1 KB). We also work with Private Forests Tasmania on the administration of private timber reserves.

We are partners with UTAS and work closely with researchers in many universities.
