North Burnett Regional Council

North Burnett Regional Council, immediately west of Bundaberg Regional Council, was formed in 2008 by the amalgamation of Biggenden, Eidsvold, Gayndah, Monto, Mundubbera and Perry Shires. The Council is headquartered in Gayndah, its largest town. Gayndah is on the Burnett River.

A recipient of many tributaries, the Burnett River rises in the Monto district and flows in a U-shaped course through Mundubbera and Gayndah, emptying into the sea at Bundaberg.
