NSW Labor has made an election promise to convert more State Forests in the North East near Casino into National Parks designated as special koala protection areas. The two state forests mentioned in the press release are already prohibited to fossicking, but unspecified nearby regions are also being evaluated for inclusion in the park.

Damm, just when I get onto a good spot they want to tell us that 'its a pristine area thats already been logged' (no exceptional value)and should be locked up - please. Same as what they did with Whian Whian state forest - logged extensively in the 50s - 70s but now a NP.

yep, getting fed up with labor n their green ways. And these state forests that get turned into SCA r locked up for big business at their leisure. With the little guys denied access. Sadly libs had 4 years to reverse the SCA n they did not. Perhaps tho we will get NPWS to allow fossicking.

Yes if you and everyone else (not saying you are not already a member BTW) with an interest actually joins NAPFA we will have a powerful lobby group. They have already successfully had the fossicking permit conditions changed Join now and you might still be able to prospect with your grandkids into the future.

Its the people who fell into a bucket of green paint that are causing the problems take it (green paint off the market) and we will have no more problems. donny
