South Australia is committed to sustainable industry development. PIRSA works in collaboration with other South Australian government agencies to ensure that our vast natural resources of land and water are managed effectively so that they can be made available for economic activity while ensuring that our natural environment is managed on a sustainable and viable basis.

This website provides information to assist developers in the preparation of development applications and business plans; including background information on the various development approval processes, maps identifying the resources available at potential locations and numerous links to the agencies that implement the various aspects of the development approval process.
