Bongil Bongil National Park Amendment to the Plan of Management

Abstract

Bongil Bongil National Park is reserved to achieve the objectives of the National Parks and Wildlife Act 1974. These objectives are centred on conserving nature and cultural heritage values, and fostering public appreciation, understanding and enjoyment of these special values. The Bongil Bongil National Park plan of management (DPIE 2021) describes how the National Parks and Wildlife Service (NPWS) intends to achieve the Act’s objectives. All operations undertaken in the park need to be in accordance with this plan of management. An amendment to a plan of management is required if there is a proposed change to the park’s management that is not consistent with the current plan. Section 73B of the National Parks and Wildlife Act enables the Minister to amend a plan of management following public exhibition of a draft amendment.
