[QUOTE="mbasko, post: 577362, member: 4485"] Looks to me like fossicking was probably allowed on a local basis as a past activity but not formalised in the SCA Plan of Management. NPWS have the power to do this but it's very very rarely allowed - first time I've actually seen it. They can also issue individual fossicking permits but I'm not aware of anybody ever getting one. I tried & failed once it went past my local office/NPWS Manager who was onboard with it. Sounds like the actions of a few have set us all back once again. If the damage is as bad as you describe LW then it's unlikely now to be ever put into the plan of management & formalised as an allowable activity there. With more NSW State Forests being turned into Parks or SCA's this will rear it's head more & more. [/QUOTE]
