Abstract

The Booderee National Park Management Plan 2015-2025 regulates the authorised activities to be performed within the park with following vision and objectives. The Park is owned by the traditional owners of the Wreck Bay Aboriginal Community, its vision is to excel in the natural and cultural heritage management of Booderee by utilising traditional, contemporary and scientific expertise. The key objectives for the management of Booderee National Park are: to conserve the biodiversity and cultural heritage of the park to benefit members of the Wreck Bay Aboriginal Community Council. There are some attributes of the park which are fundamental to the park’s purpose and significance. These cultural and natural values are summarised in the park values statement (Table 1). Identification and recognition of the park’s values ensures a shared understanding about what is most important about the reserve, and the value statement helps to determine management and planning priorities. If the values are allowed to decline the park’s purpose and significance would be jeopardised.
