[QUOTE="dwt, post: 63859, member: 428"] if you own property and have a dam that does not have a current or seasonal creek running through it you would be able to use your dredge on it...i wouldnt bother with it myself,go driving around with it in the back of a ute or car any where around state/national parks and your going to spark some unwanted intrest......ESPECIALLY if the dredge box mat is WET!!!!and even includes if it got rained on the night before,you will have some explaining to do!! 8) sorry mate had to edit this post i only realised you asked about a lease,that dose change things a bit,the work plan you would need would be huge to dredge an old creek most creeks now are coverd in enviromental overlays,if your looking at doing this in victoria jump on the dpi website and look at explore victoria online ,there you can zoom in on the vic map to the location youre interested in and start stacking up the aboriginal and enviromental overlays to see,whats on the creek,worth doing.... ;) [/QUOTE]
