Description

Made available via the Publications (Legal Deposit) Act 2004 (NT)., This is the second Plan of Management for this Park. It identifies the key management issues and presents guidelines by which the Park will be managed. It focuses chiefly on continuing management for the protection of the Park's natural values, encouragement of further research and monitoring and enhancing visitor service through the concession operation. For the period of this Plan significant management directions are: Improvement in the knowledge and understanding of the Park's karst and caves, the fauna utilising this habitat and the processes acting on these environments. Increasing cooperation with neighbouring landholders to facilitate effective management of fire, weeds, feral animals and human activities, which may impact on cave systems in the Park. Continuing a close working relationship with the concessionaire to enhance visitor experience and satisfaction. Continued regulation of access to the caves through guided tours or permits only.,
