NPWS Coastal Survey

 

John Macris - Conservation Officer

A component of the State Government’s Coastal Policy released last November, is a survey of the entire coastal/estuarine zone. If you have a favorrite area along the coast that is not currently within the reserve system, this represents an opportunity to speak up for its more secure protection.

A piece of Crown Land may seem reasonably well protected as is, however in years to come they could be facing any number of threats such as proposed caravan park leases or mineral sand mining. Any areas you have in mind can be discussed with me by phone or, if you have all the information to hand, submitted to National Parks and Wildlife Service head office.
