[QUOTE="mbasko, post: 305185, member: 4485"] The Turon National Park has only a small section of the Upper Turon running through it & fossicking isn't allowed in there or other NP's in NSW at all. Don't get confused - the majority of the Turon River isn't under National Parks so they have no jurisdiction. Coles Bridge is well away from it. You should contact the regional NSW industries office/s & let them know what happened. Theres an office in Orange & one in Dubbo. Sounds like their Rangers need some education/clarification on how to deal with the public & what different fossicking equipment is! Maybe the department does too? Unfortunately with "significant" turbidity it isn't prescribed in NSW. The NSW Fossicking Guidelines state: In Queensland significant turbidity is prescribed as turbidity that travels more than 300m downstream of fossicking activities. That seems reasonable but in NSW it's open to the Rangers interpretation of what "significant" is. [/QUOTE]
