[QUOTE="mbasko, post: 187614, member: 4485"] It's also a former designated fossicking area. These former "areas" are now gazetted as designated fossicking "districts" under the newer act/regs. This really only gives you the right to fossick without the EL holders permission but I would think it is also inferred or intended under the Act that we do have some right to continue fossicking there - as long as it's done within the NSW fossicking laws & not digging ridiculous great holes. In NSW our Conservation Areas are covered by National Parks (State Conservation Areas - SCA) & these differ to the various Crown Land Reserves in that Crown Land Reserves are there for diverse public use. They have specific rules to specific areas & if fossicking wasn't allowable I have no doubt it would be clearly stated on the signage. NSW don't allow fossicking or even metal detecting in any form in these SCA's & National Parks. You blokes are lucky to have the privilege in Victoria & should be protecting those allowable State, Coastal & National Park areas. [/QUOTE]
