Info

contain the major recreational facilities (include barbecue sites, toilets, information shelters and walk tracks). The existing major recreation sites at Serpentine Falls and Gooralong will now be formally zoned as focal points for the recreation zone within the Park (see Recreation Areas and Existing Use). The Water Corporation recreation facilities at the Serpentine (main) Dam and the Pipehead Dam are also designated within the Recreation Zone as they impact on the values of the adjoining National Park. Natural Environment Zone The remainder of the Park not specified Recreation Zone will be designated Natural Environment Zone. Extensive areas of the Park will be retained in their natural state. Vehicle access will be restricted to management vehicles only, except for a few tracks to be retained for public access. Some walk tracks will be provided within this zone. It is important to protect dieback disease-free areas, steep slopes, granite outcrops, water courses and the Table 1. ZONING SCHEME 9 Land Use Management Pipehead Dam catchment within the Natural Environment Zone. Both internal and external funding will be sought for detailed biological and dieback disease surveys within this zone. Following surveys a review of the zoning plan will be required. The western side and upslope of the high water level of the Serpentine Pipehead Dam reservoir contains areas of the Murray Vegetation Complex on the valley's mid to upper slopes that has minimal past disturbance and is in relatively good condition. Elsewhere, major areas of the Murray Vegetation Complex have been flooded following damming for Perth's water supply. STRATEGIES 1. Develop appropriate access and recreational facilities in each of the recommended zones as indicated in Figure 3 and Table 1. (H) 2. Use the zoning scheme to separate incompatible uses. (H) Description Recreation Opportunities Level of Facilities Evidence of Management Areas that can sustain, with minimum impairment, a selected range of low-density activities with a minimum of related facilities.
