Management Planning

More topics in this section

A new approach to marine park planning is underway in NSW.

Current Operational Plan

The Cape Byron Marine Park Operational Plan (PDF, 610.16 KB) outlines how the marine park will be managed to meet key the objectives of:

  • conservating marine biodiversity;
  • maintaining ecological processes;
  • providing opportunities for ecologically sustainable use;
  • supporting public appreciation, enjoyment and understanding of the marine park.

The Operational Plan was developed in consultation with the then Cape Byron Marine Park Advisory Committee.
