There is little doubt that the highlight of the year was the opening of the new Information and Education Centre The constraints on staff and funds at a time of increasing in Wilsons Promontory National Park. The entire responsibility has placed a great burden on staff project, including displays and audio-visuals, was throughout the last 12 months. It is indicative of the funded by Hillview Quarries Pty.

It has proved to be an outstanding success, as evidenced by visitor satisfaction and a number of awards which the Service has received. Another highlight of the year was the commissioning of the new dairy at Haining Farm, a very important aspect ofthe Service's environmental education program. This was also funded by a very generous private donation, and as a result, the Farm now has a top class rotary dairy which has been specially designed to enable large groups and handicapped persons to readily observe the milking process. Wild fires were a devastating feature of the 1982/83 summer and some parks were affected. Although the Ash Wednesday fires had very little impact on parks, a large fire in East Gippsland during early March severely burnt 45,000 hectares of Croajingolong and Alfred national parks. An earlier fire in December 1982 burnt 16,000 hectares of Wyperfeld National Park. In all, 83 wild fires affected or threatened parks, 71 ,000 hectares of parks were burnt and Service employees spent over 16,000 man-hours on fire suppression, much of it outside parks. The Service was very pleased to receive a number of awards throughout the year, most of these relating to the Service's interpretation work. These were: • Australian Museum of the Year Awards 1983 Best New Exhibition in Victoria; (for the Information and Education Centre at Wilsons Promontory) 5 Parks and other areas managed by the Service Details of all land managed by the National Parks Crown land under Section 14 of the Crown Land (Re­ Service are given in Appendix 4, and the location of the serves) Act 1978. parks is shown on the map in the centre of this report.
