Parks of Western and Central Kangaroo Island Management Plan 2022 – Public Notice

The department is proposing to amend the Plan to adjust the zoning criteria set out in the Plan, specifically changing the Conservation Zone which currently permits low impact development such as walking trails and picnic facilities. DEW plans to consider amendments to this zoning to strengthen the protections of the Conservation Zone and to introduce a new, smaller, zone which allows for low impact development to support park activities and infrastructure such as walking trails and picnic facilities. The amendment will also seek to increase content recognising fungi and invertebrates within the plan.

Pursuant to Section 31 of the Wilderness Protection Act 1992 members of the public are invited to make a written submission regarding matters that they think should be addressed in this amendment. All submissions received will be considered during the preparation of the plan amendment.
