Hunter Land Management was established in 2000, by Daniel Lewer, and has focused its work on riparian and land management projects in the Hunter Valley, Central Coast, Hawkesbury Nepean and Central West Catchments.

In early 2005, HLM completed the Priority Rivercare Planning and Implementation Contract for the Hunter Central Rivers Catchment Management Authority (HCRCMA). This was one of the first commercial contract implemented by the HCRCMA and was worth over $240,000. This project saw over 60 projects completed on private properties throughout the Hunter Valley which included over 15 kilometres of riparian fencing, 45,000 native tubestock planted and 95 kilometres of Rivercare Plans.

Hunter Land Management received wide spread recognition and acknowledgment for this project. This culminated with the business receiving a Highly Commended Award at the 2005 Newcastle and Hunter Environmental Achievement Awards. (Certificate at right)

In September 2005, HLM was awarded the Environmental Excellence Business of the Year Award at the annual Lower Hunter BEC Small Business Awards. We followed this up with a win in the expanded Hunter Region BEC Small buisness

Everyone involved with the business was very proud to have received this award as it is a much appreciated reflection of the efforts that have been put in to ensure that the business has a positive effect on the environment, not only in the finished product of the work undertaken, but also in the manner in which the day-to-day operations of the business are carried out.
