They have many statutory responsibilities to do so, and in particular the Local Government Act Charter specifies that Councils must abide by Ecologically Sustainable Development principles. NRM is also a role which is often expected of a council by its community, and the challenge which local government shares with other NRM agencies is to maintain a natural landscape which sustains the activities of future generations." -- Vol. 1, p. 1.
