The natural environment is complex and dynamic; alpine areas have high conservation and biodiversity value within the Australian landscape. The function of the Alpine Resort Management Boards is outlined within the Alpine Resorts (Management) Act 1997 to make provision for the development, promotion, management and use of the resorts in a sustainable basis and in a manner that is compatible with the alpine environment for the use of the resorts primarily for alpine recreation and tourism and in all seasons of the year".

The diverse functions of the RMB as well as the nature of the sensitive alpine environment mean many aspects of operations impact on a variety of environmental values. The RMB's Environmental Management Plan broadly classifies five themes of environmental values being:

  • Production, Waste and Consumption
  • Atmosphere
  • Land Management
  • Biodiversity and Threatened Species
  • Water

Each theme identifies aspects of RMB operations as well as impacts that can be associated with each. The Environmental Management Plan outlines the goals and actions; including responsible person/s and timelines where appropriate, to achieve the aim defined in the Environmental Policy.
