This is the second Management Plan for Ningaloo Marine Park (Commonwealth Waters)
Environment Australia, 2002
ISBN 0 642 54733 5
This is the second Management Plan for Ningaloo Marine Park (Commonwealth Waters). On 16 July 2000, the NPWC Act, under which Ningaloo Marine Park (Commonwealth Waters) was proclaimed, was replaced by the Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999 (EPBC Act). The second Management Plan for the Marine Park will operate under the EPBC Act and the Regulations made under the Act (EPBC Regulations) will apply, in accordance with the Plan.
This Plan has been prepared in accordance with the EPBC Act and provides for the protection and conservation of the Marine Park. It sets out strategic objectives, management goals and management strategies to ensure that the natural, social and cultural values of the area receive an appropriate level of protection. As required by the EPBC Act, the Plan assigns an IUCN category to the Marine Park, and indicates the activities that may be carried on and those that are to be prohibited or regulated in the Marine Park.
