Dear Suzie
Thank you very much for your reply.
The response from AFP is very poor with no hint of an apology
nor any indication of willingness to change their procedures.
In response
my warning COG members about this activity a question has
been raised as to why such activities are not undertaken
on the Majura Range which is well signposted to warn of
the dangers of firing etc, This is a very good question.
I suggest
that the Parks Service should require that if this use of
Section 1570 is to continue:
- There should be a clear
warning sign placed on the gate indicating that
explosives are in use in section 1570 and use of the
road is prohibited (including for the sewage trucks)
during that operation. Very few members of the public
would understand the red flag.
- The use of aerial
explosives in particular during the raptor breeding
season
