Heritage
The Sydney Catchment Authority (SCA) manages a diverse range of cultural heritage items, including dams and associated infrastructure, weirs, homesteads, mining infrastructure, bridges and significant indigenous sites.
This diversity comes from the long history of water supply and the purchase of former pastoral and mining lands. There are also vast areas of undeveloped land in the Special Areas that hold valuable evidence of Aboriginal heritage.
Heritage and Conservation Register
Under Section 170 of the NSW Heritage Act 1977 all state government agencies are required to identify, conserve and manage heritage assets owned, occupied or managed by that agency.
Section 170 also requires agencies to keep a register of heritage items, which is called a Heritage and Conservation Register or more commonly a Section 170 Register.
The register can be used by the agency to assist it in managing its assets, including maintenance, conservation and making changes to assets.
Full details for each item on the SCA’s Heritage and Conservation Register are available on the NSW Heritage Branch website. Click on the links below.

The SCA’s Section 170 Register was compiled in compliance with Section 170 of the Heritage Act 1977 and Section 20 (1)(a-d) of the Heritage Amendment Regulation 2010, and endorsed by the Heritage Council in March 2011.
The SCA is in discussion with the Heritage Branch on the delisting and listing of items from the State Heritage Register based on the endorsed Section 170 Register.
