DELWP PortPhillip

This page keeps you informed of DELWP's activities in the Port Phillip region.

The Department of Environment, Land, Water & Planning (DELWP) is tasked with creating liveable, inclusive and sustainable communities.

We focus on caring for and protecting the environment, and helping to respond to climate change through risk mitigation and adaptation strategies.

We recognise the link between the built and natural environment in the quality of our lives, and work to accommodate population growth while maintaining world class liveability and protecting our heritage for future generations.

We assist local governments to support people, communities and growth at the local level.

Port Phillip region encompasses Victoria's capital Melbourne, Port Phillip and Western Port Bays, Mornington Peninsula, the Yarra Ranges and Melbourne's outer suburbs and growth corridors.
