24.0 FACILITIES AND DEVELOPMENT24.1 NAVIGATION AND OTHER MARKERSCurrently, offshore and onshore markers guide boat users through reefs to both the Hillarys andOcean Reef Boat Harbours. The provision of markers and other navigational aids are regulated bythe Department of Marine and Harbours.Buoys mark sailing courses to the south of the Hillarys Boat Harbour and north of Mullaloo Point.Markers also depict the water ski area at Mullaloo Point. Although there are no definite proposals,marking of zones may be required. Wherever possible this should be done in a sensitive manner andon the coast rather than offshore.ActionInstall offshore markers only where there is a demonstrated need and no effectivealternative. Fully assess the installation of markers in the Park in liaison with theDepartment of Marine and Harbours. Aesthetic design and placement are importantconsiderations.24.2 MOORINGSMoorings and their floats impinge upon the use of an area and imply right to exclusive use. Locationand design of moorings need careful consideration to avoid environmental damage.ActionThe location and installation of any markers and moorings, temporary or permanent,require approval from CALM. Only approved designs will be permitted. Liaise with theDepartment of Marine and Harbours on these matters.24.3 JETTIESPresently a small fishing jetty is located at North Beach for line fishing. The reconstructed jetty, theonly one in Park waters, was part of a longer jetty destroyed by storms. Other jetties are not expectedto be built because of the facilities available at Hillarys and Ocean Reef Boat Harbours.49
ActionDesign, location and installation of any jetty requires the approval of both CALM andthe Department of Marine and Harbours, and must comply with construction andmaintenance standards.24.4 GROYNES AND BREAKWATERSGroynes and breakwaters associated with any boat ramp or marina development may haveconsiderable environmental impact. Groynes have been used in stabilisation programs at Sorrento.ActionProposals to construct groynes or breakwaters require environmental assessment inaccordance with the Environmental Protection Act and approval by CALM.24.5 STRUCTURES AND PLATFORMSProposals to place platforms and structures at quality reef areas are common place in areas of hightourist potential. Within the waters of the Marmion Marine Park, however, small platforms are mooredoff popular swimming beaches as rest sites for swimmers. Large scale proposals are unlikely duringthe term of this plan.Actions1. Any proposals involving the placement of structures on or near reefs shall includean engineering and operational outline of the facility and be subject to detailedenvironmental assessment in accordance with the Environmental Protection Act.2. Proposals for structures and platforms requires CALM's approval in addition toany assessment for licences under the Jetties Act.3. Structures and platforms will not be permitted in Sanctuary Zones.50
