(2) This zoning plan may also be cited as the Moreton Bay Marine Park Zoning Plan. 2 Commencement This zoning plan commences on 1 December 1997. 3 Dictionary (1) The dictionary in schedule 4 defines particular words used in this zoning plan. (2) An expression that is not defined in this zoning plan, but is defined in the regulation, has the meaning given by the regulation. Part 2 Purpose and application of Zoning Plan 4 Purpose of zoning plan The purpose of this zoning plan is to provide for the ecologically sustainable use of Moreton Bay Marine Park and
s 5 10 s 7 Marine Parks (Moreton Bay) Zoning Plan 1997 to protect its natural, recreational, cultural heritage and amenity values. 5 Application of zoning plan This zoning plan applies to Moreton Bay Marine Park. 6 Zones (1) The marine park is divided into the following zones— (a) general use zones; (b) habitat zones; (c) conservation zones; (d) buffer zones; (e) protection zones. (2) The zones cover the whole marine park and do not overlap. (3) The boundaries of the zones are set out in schedule 1. 1 7 Control of activities in zones (1) The purposes for which a person may enter or use a particular zone are set out in part 3 of this zoning plan. (2) Also, part 6 sets out purposes for which a person may enter or use the marine park and restrictions on the entry or use of the marine park. (3) Part 6 applies despite any other provision in this zoning plan. 1 The latitudinal and longitudinal positions used in the schedule to describe the zone boundaries are described using the Australian Geodetic Datum 1984. The approximate locations of the zones are shown on Moreton Bay Marine Park Zoning Plan Map MP3, a copy of which may be inspected at the department’s central office at 160 Ann Street, Brisbane or the department’s regional office at the Jetset Centre, 288 Edward Street, Brisbane.
s 8 11 s 10 Marine Parks (Moreton Bay) Zoning Plan 1997 8 Relationship between zones and designated areas (1) A designated area may be set aside within a zone for special management. (2) The restrictions on entry or use of a designated area within a zone are in addition to the restrictions for the zone. 10 Granting of permissions (1) This section applies to an application for a permission to enter or use a zone for a particular purpose. (2) The regulation provides for how an application for a permission is to be made and how the chief executive decides whether or not to grant the permission. (3) In addition to the criteria for deciding the application set out in the regulation, the chief executive must be satisfied that the proposed entry or use of the zone— (a) will not have an unacceptable environmental impact on the zone; and (b) is consistent with the maintenance of the biological diversity and ecological functioning of the marine park; and (c) will not cause a loss of vegetation essential to the marine park’s productivity; and (d) will not prejudice the natural condition and amenity of the marine park. (4) Also, the chief executive must consider— (a) any effect the proposed entry or use of the zone will have on the marine park’s natural tidal flushing pattern or natural coastal processes; and (b) the cumulative impact on the marine park of the proposed entry or use of the zone and any other entry or use of the marine park, particularly the cumulative impact of small-scale developments for which an environmental impact statement is not required; and (c) the effect of the proposed entry or use on shorebirds, particularly international migratory bird species, and
s 11 12 s 12 Marine Parks (Moreton Bay) Zoning Plan 1997 their habitat and the need to protect shorebirds and their habitat; and (d) if the proposed entry or use of the zone involves the entry or use of a designated area—the purpose of the area. (5) The chief executive may grant a permission for the installation or construction of a structure within an ocean beach area only if the structure is consistent with the purpose of the area. (6) However, subsection (3) does not apply if the chief executive is making a decision about an application for carrying out major works in the marine park. Part 3 Zones Division 1 General use zone 11 Purpose of general use zone The purpose of a general use zone is to provide for the general use and public enjoyment of the zone in ways that are consistent with the conservation of the marine park. 12 Entry or use of general use zone without permission A person may enter or use a general use zone without a permission for the following purposes— (a) a recreational, educational, cultural or spiritual activity that does not— (i) involve the taking of marine products; or (ii) disturb or impair the value or usefulness of the zone; (b) photography, filming or sound recording that does not— (i) involve the taking of marine products; or
