[QUOTE="Goldtarget, post: 359173, member: 2152"] This follows the Victorian example of the exempt list. It was only intended to stop people [b]occupying[/b] the area, read set up permanent camp/build. It was never intended as an exclusion to fossiking activities. I'm getting a bit tired of the do gooders and the greens winning on the political landscape. This country was built on gold, and I would estimate that more than 75% of anyone affected in QLD, Victoria and now NSW would happily abide by sensible practices, and put some time in to not only reparing what they have done but improving the areas, or nearby areas for future generations, and help police anyone going too far. It's bloody crazy all this nonsense about wrecking the environment. For some reason they believe we can't be trusted to make sensible sound decisions in a reasonable manner. If it keeps going and all the good work and submissions keep being ignored I for one wI'll forgo protesting and just get out there anyway, fines or N9 fines, in any area I choose. When all reasonable measures have failed to persuade those responsible for making the decisions I'll pack up my highbanker, detector, and build a dry blower and dredge and just do it any way. Hell ill even tell them when and where i intend to do it. And anyone with issue with that should ask themselves why they would defend stupid laws/rules/regulations/legislation/laws that make no sense. If they believe what we do is unreasonable then why should anyone be reasonable in their acceptance of it. You can get away with a smaller fine for so many truly criminal acts. I'll put their laws in the no barefoot on Sundays pile of useless laws I ignore. [/QUOTE]
