Situational Analysis
- Zoned Rural
- Borders Saltwater National Park, Dreaming place of the Traditional owners, the Biripi Nation
- Highly sought after coastal real estate
Issues
- Sites not recorded or documented on AHIMS database [Aboriginal Heritage Information Management System - NPWS 1974]
- Ad hoc approach to Aboriginal site surveys by local councils conducted by an approved Aboriginal Culture and Heritage Officer
- The Wallabi Point Bioclinic report stated that there was a survey done, but it was NOT conducted formally
- Loose interpretation of the word 'consultation' within local councils
- Proposal rejected by the Wallabi Point community
