Emergency management regions include a distance of three nautical miles from the respective shores (including any unincorporated areas, with the exception of French Island which is declared as part of the Southern Metro region).

All Alpine Resort Management Boards are also designated in Hume region, including Mount Baw Baw Alpine Resort (part of the Southern Alpine Resort Management Board) which is geographically within Gippsland region.
