These include: Heritage Inventories; North Eveleigh Railway Carriage Workshops Historical Archaeological Impact Assessment, Archaeological Zoning Plan and Impact Mitigation Strategy (AHMS, 2008); and Preferred Project AHIMS letter dated 25 August 2008 etc Conservation Management Plan (Otto Cserhalmi & Partners, 2002). 4.2 Heritage Inventories As discussed in Section 2.0, Commonwealth, State and local governments maintain inventories of items of historical significance within each jurisdiction. The following section discusses listed heritage items within the Project Site and its immediate surrounds. AECOM undertook a search of relevant heritage inventories on 8 June 2012. The inventories searched were: World Heritage List; Commonwealth Heritage List; National Heritage List; Register of the National Estate State Heritage Register Section 170, Registers of relevant Government Agencies; Major Development SEPP 2005 and SEPP (State and Regional Development) 2011; and South Sydney LEP/ Draft City of Sydney LEP.
