Bool Lagoon Game Reserve and Hacks Lagoon Conservation Park Management and Ramsar Plan, Adelaide, South Australia’ Department for Environment and Heritage Park Management and Ramsar Plan Bool Lagoon Game Reserve and Hacks Lagoon Conservation Park 2006 www.environment.sa.gov.au This plan of management was adopted on 13 August 2006 and was prepared pursuant to section 38 of the National Parks and Wildlife Act 1972. Published by the Department for Environment and Heritage, Adelaide, Australia Department for Environment and Heritage, 2006 ISBN: 1 921238 67 4 Front cover photograph courtesy of Daniel Harley: Magpie Geese flocking at Bool Lagoon This document may be cited as ‘Department for Environment and Heritage (2006) Bool Lagoon Game Reserve and Hacks Lagoon Conservation Park Management and Ramsar Plan, Adelaide, South Australia’ FOREWORD Bool Lagoon Game Reserve and Hacks Lagoon Conservation Park are located approximately 24 kilometres south of Naracoorte, in South Australia’s South East. Combined, the parks conserve 3,220 hectares of one of the most important remnant wetlands in a region where wetlands have been reduced to less than six percent of their original area. Bool Lagoon Game Reserve and Hacks Lagoon Conservation Park are recognised internationally as the Bool and Hacks Lagoons Ramsar site, a Wetland of International Importance under the Convention on Wetlands (Ramsar, Iran 1971). Bool and Hacks Lagoons are considered a major conservation asset, protecting a mosaic of aquatic and semi-aquatic vegetation interspersed with areas of open water, which at maximum capacity fills with water to cover an extensive 2,530 hectares. The lagoons support a diversity of species and habitats, including a number of global, national and state threatened species. In particular the site provides an important refuge for migratory bird species and significant breeding habitat for a diversity of waterbirds. The plan defines a series of objectives and strategies for the future management and use of these significant reserves and facilitates the development and implementation of high quality integrated regional conservation programs. Many people have contributed to the development of this plan of management. Their interest and helpful suggestions are gratefully acknowledged. I now formally adopt the plan of management for Bool Lagoon Game Reserve and Hacks Lagoon Conservation Park under the provisions of section 38 of the National Parks and Wildlife Act 1972, and encourage you to visit these exceptional parks. HON GAIL GAGO MLC MINIST ER FOR ENVIRONMENT AND CONSERVATION Bool Lagoon Game Reserve and Hacks Lagoon Conservation Park Management and Ramsar Plan 2006 i PREFACE This document is the plan of management for Bool Lagoon Game Reserve and Hacks Lagoon Conservation Park. This plan also fulfills the requirements of the Australian Ramsar Management Principles (Regulation 10.2 of the Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999) to prepare a management plan for the Bool and Hacks Lagoon Ramsar site. Bool and Hacks Lagoons were included on the List of Wetlands of International Importance (Ramsar List) in 1985. The site meets eight Ramsar Criteria, in particular for the diversity of waterbird species, waterbird breeding habitat and refuge, and its role as an important remnant wetland in the region. In addition to their recognition as a site for waterbirds, the lagoons are important for the maintenance of biodiversity in the region, and as a site of cultural significance. Since the introduction of the Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999, the inclusion of a wetland on the Ramsar List entails specific management obligations, namely the maintenance of the ecological character of the site and the wise use of resources. This Ramsar plan recognises the importance of the management of water to maintain the present suite of habitats and wetland functions. The plan focuses on the cooperative management of the off-site and on-site ground and surface water characteristics which impact on the wetland, while recognising and protecting the wide-ranging ecological and cultural values of the site. The development of the plan engaged a wide range of community and specialist stakeholders. Emphasis was placed on facilitating community and specialist input prior to the drafting process, and providing multiple opportunities to comment throughout the planning process. Community involvement in the planning process was facilitated by a Community Reference Group (CRG), comprising local community stakeholders. A Technical Reference Group (TRG) was formed to provide a network of specialist stakeholders. The purpose of the CRG was to provide a forum for community input on all management issues. The CRG met four times prior to the drafting of the management plan, including site visits to Bool and Hacks Lagoons. Many CRG members represented local organisations, and were therefore responsible for the two-way exchange of information between the CRG and their respective community organisations during the planning process. A Management Issues Paper was developed to provide background information to inform Group discussions. Prior to the drafting of the management plan, DEH staff met with representatives from three regional Aboriginal Heritage organisations, including a site visit to Bool and Hacks Lagoon. Bool Lagoon landholders were given the opportunity to meet with DEH staff to comment on management issues, as well as having three representatives on the CRG. The Technical Reference Group functioned as an informal network of individuals with specialist wetland knowledge. The majority of input from the TRG was done individually through the DEH Planning Officer through comment on the Management Issues Paper and by way of submissions on a pre-release draft plan. The TRG met formally for a Ramsar Workshop, held in April 2004. The purpose of the Ramsar Workshop was to address the update of the Ramsar Information Sheet for Bool and Hacks Lagoons, and develop guidelines for the description of the ecological character of the site. The TRG made a significant contribution to the development of monitoring priorities and principles. DEH recognises the important contribution of community and specialist stakeholders throughout the planning process, and commends their enthusiastic and constructive involvement. Individuals involved in the process are acknowledged. ii Bool Lagoon Game Reserve and Hacks Lagoon Conservation Park Management and Ramsar Plan 2006 SYNOPSIS Reserve name and type: Bool Lagoon Game Reserve Hacks Lagoon Conservation Park Management Region: South East Location: 24 kilometres from Naracoorte, South East.

  • South Australia's National Parks Guide
    SOUTH AUSTRALIA’S NATIONAL PARKS GUIDE Explore some of South Australia’s most inspirational places INTRODUCTION Generations of South Australians and visitors to our State cherish memories of our national parks. From camping with family and friends in the iconic Flinders Ranges, picnicking at popular Adelaide parks such as Belair National Park or fishing and swimming along our long and winding coast, there are countless opportunities to connect with nature and discover landscapes of both natural and cultural significance. South Australia’s parks make an important contribution to the economic development of the State through nature- based tourism, recreation and biodiversity. They also contribute to the healthy lifestyles we as a community enjoy and they are cornerstones of our efforts to conserve South Australia’s native plants and animals. In recognition of the importance of our parks, the Department of Environment, Water and Natural Resources is enhancing experiences for visitors, such as improving park infrastructure and providing opportunities for volunteers to contribute to conservation efforts. It is important that we all continue to celebrate South Australia’s parks and recognise the contribution that people make to conservation. Helping achieve that vision is the fun part – all you need to do is visit a park and take advantage of all it has to offer.
