  • Karst and Caves in the Canberra Area - Past and Future Management
    KARST AND CAVES IN THE CANBERRA AREA - PAST AND FUTURE MANAGEMENT MARK BUTZ Abstract A number of karst areas and limestone outcrops within a thirty kilometre radius of Canberra City are discussed with an emphasis on those managed by the ACT Parks and Conservation Service of the Department of Territories. The history, conservation status and significance of these areas is reviewed and proposed directions for management are derived from their values, with priority placed on education and scientific enquiry. The need for an organisational approach to karst management is emphasised. Introduction There are numerous limestone lenses amid the Silurian and Devonian formations in the Canberra area, including a number of karsts surrounded by impervious volcanic rocks. Most of the karsts are very small - only a few metres thick and less than a kilometre long - and few contain caves. Where caves are found they are usually small and short, but of reasonable complexity (Nicoll & Brush 1976b). For these reasons, the significance of the karst and caves around Canberra has been long underestimated, but such areas are now receiving higher priority in the resource management programmes of the ACT Parks and Conservation Service, part of the Department of Territories. This Service, established early in 1984, is responsible for management of natural and cultural resources, wildlife and open space recreation throughout the Australian Capital Territory (ACT) and the Jervis Bay Territory, and in the Commonwealth Reserve associated with the Googong Reservoir in New South Wales (NSW). Within the areas managed by the Service are found the Paddys River (or Cotter) Caves, the London Bridge and associated caves, and scattered lesser karsts on the plain now occupied by the city area and along the Murrumbidgee and lower Molonglo Rivers.
