[QUOTE="EternalChase, post: 64641, member: 1754"] Everything mentioned is great! My suspicion though is that it is not prospectors dumping TV's, Tyres, Couchs etc. - we may have got a little off topic.. If we want to help clean up this type of dumping, it is still important that "prospectors" get the recognition for cleaning this rubbish up. Which includes taking photographic evidence of the work we are doing and having it documented in a database. This will help to promote the useful nature of a prospector being out in the sticks where they can help remove rubbish as we're going. Keeping in mind that the change in legislation is really talking about the reduced use of water processing related prospecting equipment, not detectors. In addition to this, it is talking about the environmental impact we are supposed to be having on the waterways - not really trashing us for dumping rubbish whilst out there. This does not take away from the proposed "clean up Australia" program idea from dwt. This is brilliant! Let's ensure we stay focused on the cleaning up of areas we are digging though, and keep the clean up of those holes full proof from scrutiny by the greenies... Ron's suggestion of getting a register together is a good idea, as well as getting our PMAV President involved so that we can tick all of the requirements boxes for running a clean up program. Good publicity might be exactly what we all need, however no point doing all the hard work to the find out we are the only ones who know about it! :P [/QUOTE]
