(f) a bait jig (that is, a hook or a group of hooks consisting of no more than 6 hooks, each hook being of a size between number 1 and number 12 (both inclusive) or their equivalents).
#### 18 Limited collecting
In the Zoning Plan, limited collecting means the collecting of an animal or plant, subject to the condition or limitation that the collecting is done by hand, or with a hand‑held implement that is not motorised nor pneumatically nor hydraulically operated.
> Note: This is not the only relevant limitation. The Zoning Plan refers to limited collecting only as a kind of fishing or collecting. The definition of fishing or collecting in the Zoning Plan provides for extra limitations, which are set out in subregulation 15(2).
#### 19 Limited impact research (extractive)—definition for Zoning Plan
Definition for Zoning Plan
(1) In the Zoning Plan:
> limited impact research (extractive) means research that:
(a) involves:
(i) the taking of an animal, plant or marine product by limited research sampling; or
(ii) the installation and operation of minor research aids in a way that does not pose a threat to the environment, safety or navigation and is in accordance with the research guidelines (if any); and
(b) is a component of a research project conducted by a research institution accredited under regulation 7; and
(c) if:
(i) the research is conducted in an area of the Scientific Research Zone; and
(ii) the Authority has approved an environmental management plan in writing for a research station associated with the area;
is conducted in accordance with that plan.
Definitions for this regulation
(2) In this regulation:
> limited research sampling means sampling in accordance with all of the following conditions:
(a) taking is done, in accordance with the research guidelines (if any):
(i) by hand; or
(ii) by the use of a hand‑held implement that is not motorised and not pneumatically or hydraulically operated; or
(iii) by the use of a minor research aid;
(b) no more than 20 litres of wet sediment is taken for a research project for a calendar year;
(c) no more than 100 litres of seawater is taken for a research project for a calendar year;
(d) taking of marine plants, as defined in the Fisheries Act 1994 (Qld), complies with Queensland fisheries legislation and Queensland planning legislation;
(e) taking of organisms of marine taxa of the kingdom Chromista would comply with Queensland fisheries legislation and Queensland planning legislation if those organisms were marine plants for the purposes of all that legislation;
(f) the conditions described in subregulations (3) and (4) on taking animals.
> Note: As all the conditions mentioned in the definition need to be met for sampling to be limited research sampling, if 2 or more conditions potentially relate to the same activity, the activity will be limited research sampling only if all those conditions are met.
> minor research aid means any of the following:
(a) any of the following that is not powered in a way that poses a threat to the environment:
(i) apparatus, or equipment, authorised under Queensland fisheries legislation for recreational use;
(ii) a data logger;
(iii) a water‑sampling device;
(iv) a sediment‑sampling device;
(v) passive acoustic monitoring or survey equipment;
(vi) equipment for conducting an underwater video survey;
(b) a tag;
(c) a stake;
(d) a non‑fixed plankton net;
(e) a sub‑surface marker buoy;
(f) a surface marker buoy;
(g) a non‑fixed transect tape or quadrat;
(h) clove oil in solution;
(i) equipment for fastening anything described in another paragraph of this definition.
> research guidelines means written policies about the conduct of research in the Marine Park that are published by the Authority, as they are in existence from time to time.
> research location means:
(a) a discrete, identified reef; or
(b) a continuous non‑reef area of up to 1,000 hectares.
> take has the same meaning as it has in the Zoning Plan as in force from time to time.
Conditions on taking animals in limited research sampling
(3) One condition on limited research sampling is that the sampling for a research project in a calendar year:
(a) does not involve the taking of any animals of the following species:
(i) a protected species as defined in the Act or the Zoning Plan;
(ii) a species in class Mammalia (mammals);
(iii) a species in class Aves (birds);
(iv) a species in class Reptilia (reptiles);
(v) a species in class Amphibia (amphibians); and
(b) complies with the limits in an item of the following table on taking animals of:
(i) a species described in the item; or
(ii) a species, and length, described in the item.
> Note 1: If a species is both a protected species and a species described in an item of the table, no animals of that species can be taken in limited research sampling.
> Note 2: The items of the table are generally arranged taxonomically. Families not listed as an exception to a higher taxon are arranged alphabetically within the higher taxon. Even genera and species not listed as an exception to a higher taxon are still grouped by family, and those families are arranged alphabetically. Species within a higher taxon are arranged alphabetically.
> Note 3: Subregulation (4) limits taking of other animals by limited research sampling.

(3) However, the application is not taken to be reinstated at a time if that time is after the time one of the following events occurred or would have occurred apart from the application being taken under subregulation (1) to be withdrawn:
(a) the application is taken to be withdrawn under regulation 88PP or 88PQ;
(b) the application lapsed under regulation 132.
#### Subdivision 2A.2.4—Additional information
#### 88E Additional information
(1) For the purposes of making one or more decisions under this Part relating to an application for a permission, the Authority may, in writing, request that the applicant give to the Authority specified additional information or a specified additional document.
(2) The applicant may provide the information or document as part of a report or assessment prepared for the purposes of:
(a) the Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999; or
(b) the Environmental Protection Act 1994 of Queensland, Queensland planning legislation or the State Development and Public Works Organisation Act 1971 of Queensland.
(3) If the applicant does not provide the additional information or document to the Authority within 20 business days after the day the Authority gives the notice to the applicant (or such longer period that the Authority allows), the application is taken to have been withdrawn.
(4) The Authority must not make a request under subregulation (1) after deciding under Subdivision 2A.3A.1 that the approach of routine assessment must be used for assessment of the impacts of the proposed conduct (unless the Authority has revoked that decision).
### Division 2A.3—Applications for special permissions
#### 88F Purpose of Division
(1) This Division provides for the process of seeking expressions of interest in relation to applications for special permissions.
(2) This Division also sets out how expressions of interest are to be ranked in order for the person submitting the expression of interest to be declared an entitled person.
> Note: Generally, only entitled persons can apply under regulation 88A for a special permission.
#### 88G Interpretation
(1) In this Division:
> heli‑pontoon means a non‑motorised, permanently moored facility that is used solely as a landing area for helicopters.
> special permission has the meaning given by subregulations (2), (3), (4) and (6).
(2) A special tourism permission is a special permission.
(3) A permission to operate a heli‑pontoon facility of the kind mentioned in subclause 1.37(2) of the Cairns Area Plan of Management 1998 is a special permission.
(4) A permission to operate a mooring facility that meets the criteria in subregulation (5) is a special permission.
(5) For subregulation (4), the criteria are that the mooring facility:
(a) is in a Location listed in Schedule 6 to the Cairns Area Plan of Management 1998; or
(b) is in the Whitsunday Planning Area and the permission was in force immediately before 18 December 2008; or
(c) is in the Hinchinbrook Planning Area and the permission was in force immediately before 15 April 2004; or
(d) is of a kind mentioned in subclause 1.37(1) of the Cairns Area Plan of Management 1998;
but is not a mooring facility:
(e) of a kind mentioned in paragraph 1.36(3)(a), (b), (c), (e) or (f), clause 1.38 or subclause 1.39(7) of the Cairns Area Plan of Management 1998; or
(f) of a kind mentioned in subclause 1.27(2) of the Whitsundays Plan of Management 1998; or
(g) of a kind referred to in subclause 1.29(1) or 2.22(2) of the Hinchinbrook Plan of Management 2004.
(6) A permission of a kind mentioned in subclause 1.27(3) or (4) of the Whitsundays Plan of Management 1998 is a special permission.
#### 88H Application of Division
(1) A person is not required to be declared an entitled person under this Division in order to apply for a special permission if:
(a) the person holds a special permission and, before the permission expires, the person applies under regulation 88A to replace the permission with a permission of the same kind; or
(b) the person held a special permission and after its expiry:
(i) the person applied under regulation 88A to replace the permission with a permission of the same kind; and
(ii) the Authority, under subregulation (2), decides to treat the application as having been made before the expiry of the permission; or
(c) the permission is transferred to the person under regulation 88ZK.
(2) For subparagraph (1)(b)(ii), the Authority may decide to treat the application as having been made before the expiry of the special permission if the Authority considers that special circumstances put forward in writing by the applicant justify its doing so.
#### 88I Only entitled person may apply for special permission
(1) Despite subregulation 88A(1) and subject to regulation 88H, a person may apply for a special permission only if the person is, under this Division, declared to be an entitled person for the permission.
(2) The Authority may declare a person to be an entitled person for a special permission only if the permission is available to be granted under a plan of management, and either:
(a) has not been granted previously; or
(b) if granted previously—will not be in force at the time the entitled person is granted the applied‑for permission under regulation 88X.
> Note 1: A permission might no longer be in force because it has expired, has been surrendered or has been revoked.
> Note 2: The process of seeking expressions of interest must occur before the granting of the special permission. See regulation 88J.
#### 88J Invitations for expressions of interest
(1) Subject to regulation 88H, before granting a special permission under regulation 88X, the Authority must publish a notice inviting expressions of interest in the permission.
(2) The notice must be published:
(a) on the Authority’s website; and
(b) in a newspaper, if any, that is a local newspaper circulating in that part of the State of Queensland adjacent to that part of the Marine Park in which the conduct, for which permission is sought, is to be engaged in.
(3) The notice must set out:
(a) the kind of permission or, if the notice applies to more than 1 kind of permission, each of the kinds of permission, for which expressions of interest are sought; and
(b) the procedure for expressing an interest; and
(c) the closing date for expressing an interest; and
(d) the amount of the lodgment fee for expressing an interest; and
(e) the criteria to be applied by the Authority in assessing an expression of interest.
(4) The notice must be published at least 10 business days before the closing date for the expressions of interest.
#### 88K Consideration of expressions of interest to determine entitled person
(1) In making a decision under regulation 88M, 88N or 88O as to who is an entitled person in relation to a special permission mentioned in a notice under regulation 88J, the Authority must only consider expressions of interest that are:
(a) made in the form approved by the Authority; and
(b) received after the publication of the notice but no later than the closing date set out in the notice; and
(c) accompanied by the lodgment fee mentioned in the notice.
(2) In considering an expression of interest, the Authority must have regard to the criteria mentioned in paragraph 88J(3)(e).
#### 88L Ranking expressions of interest
(1) Subject to subregulation (3), for each kind of special permission for which interest is expressed by more than 1 person, the Authority must rank the expressions in order of merit, and may rank by ballot any expressions of equal merit.
(2) The Authority must determine the order of merit on the basis of the criteria set out in the notice under paragraph 88J(3)(e).
(3) The Authority must not rank an expression of interest that does not satisfy all of the criteria mentioned in the notice under paragraph 88J(3)(e).
(4) The Authority must give to a person whose expression of interest has not been ranked, a written notice setting out the reasons for the Authority’s decision not to rank the expression of interest.
(5) The Authority must give the notice to the person within 10 business days after making the decision.
#### 88M First declaration of entitled person
(1) For a kind of special permission set out in a notice under regulation 88J, the Authority must, in writing, declare the person who lodged the most highly ranked expression of interest for that kind of permission to be the entitled person for the permission.
(2) The declaration must be made, and given to the person, as soon as practicable after the Authority ranks the expression of interest.
(3) The declaration must:
(a) specify the date from which the decision that the person’s expression of interest is the most highly ranked for the permission takes effect (the date of effect); and
(b) declare that the person is an entitled person to make an application under regulation 88A for that permission; and
(c) state that the person must make the application within 15 business days after the date of effect or the person will cease to be the entitled person for the permission.
(4) The date of effect must not be a date before the date that the declaration is given to the person.
#### 88N Second declaration of entitled person
(1) The person declared to be the entitled person for the special permission under regulation 88M ceases to be the entitled person if the person:
(a) does not apply under regulation 88A within the period mentioned in paragraph 88M(3)(c); or
(b) withdraws an application made under regulation 88A; or
(c) lodges an application under regulation 88A and the application:
(i) is taken to have been withdrawn under subregulation 88E(3); or
(ii) is refused under regulation 88X; or
(iii) lapses under regulation 132.
(2) If the person ceases to be the entitled person for the special permission, the Authority must again rank the expressions of interest for the permission so that the immediately next ranked expression of interest becomes the most highly ranked expression of interest.
(3) The Authority must, in writing, declare the person whose expression of interest was ranked highest under subregulation (2), to be the entitled person for the permission.
(4) The declaration must be made, and given to the person, as soon as practicable after the Authority ranks the expression of interest under subregulation (2).
(5) The declaration must:
(a) specify the date from which the decision that the person’s expression of interest is the most highly ranked for the permission takes effect (the date of effect); and
(b) declare that the person is an entitled person to make an application under regulation 88A for the permission; and
(c) state that the person must apply to make that application within 15 business days after the date of effect or the person will cease to be the entitled person for the permission.
(6) The date of effect must not be a date before the date that the declaration is given to the person.
#### 88O Further declarations of entitled person
(1) If the person declared under regulation 88N to be the new entitled person for the special permission:
(a) does not apply under regulation 88A within the period mentioned in paragraph 88N(5)(c); or
(b) withdraws an application made under regulation 88A; or
(c) lodges an application under regulation 88A and the application:
(i) is taken to have been withdrawn under subregulation 88E(3); or
(ii) is refused under regulation 88X; or
(iii) lapses under regulation 132;
then regulation 88N continues to apply as required to the process of ranking of expressions of interest to determine the person who is to be declared the entitled person for the permission.
(2) If the Authority is required to again rank expressions of interest under regulation 88N for a kind of permission set out in a notice under regulation 88J, the Authority in doing so need only take into account the outcome of the previous ranking for that permission.
#### 88P Notice regarding unsuccessful expressions of interest
(1) If:
(a) a person’s expression of interest for a special permission has been ranked by the Authority under regulation 88L; and
(b) the person has not received a declaration under regulation 88M, 88N or 88O;
the Authority must give the person a written notice setting out the reasons for the decision not to give the person’s expression of interest the highest ranking for that permission.
(2) The notice must be given within 20 business days after the making of the decision.
(3) This regulation does not apply in relation to an expression of interest that has been ranked again by the Authority in accordance with regulation 88N or 88O.

(ii) the Authority decided under regulation 88AA that the application was not made in accordance with regulation 88A;
(iii) the matters indicated in the notice of the decision were rectified within 30 business days from the day stated in the notice.
#### 88PB Authority must decide on approach for assessment
(1) Before considering whether to grant or refuse the permission, the Authority must decide which one of the following approaches must be used for assessment of the impacts of the proposed conduct:
(a) routine assessment;
(b) tailored assessment;
(c) assessment by public information package under Subdivision 2A.3A.2;
(d) assessment by public environment report under Subdivision 2A.3A.3;
(e) assessment by environmental impact statement under Subdivision 2A.3A.4.
> Note 1: Regulation 88PC sets out considerations for making the decision.
> Note 2: If the Authority decides that routine assessment must be used, the Authority cannot request additional information before deciding whether to grant or refuse the permission (see regulation 88E).
> Note 3: If the Authority decides that tailored assessment must be used, the Authority may request additional information under regulation 88E.
(2) The Authority may revoke a decision (the old decision) previously made under this regulation that a particular approach must be used and substitute a new decision that a different approach must be used, if:
(a) after the old decision was made, extra information becomes available to the Authority; and
(b) the Authority is satisfied that the extra information (in conjunction with information the Authority had before the old decision) justifies the new decision.
> Note: Regulation 88PC sets out considerations for making the new decision.
#### 88PC Considerations in deciding on approach for assessment
In deciding which approach must be used for assessment of the impacts of the proposed conduct, the Authority must consider:
(a) information the Authority has about the relevant impacts of the proposed conduct (including information about the scale and complexity of those impacts); and

(c) any relevant policies published by the Authority under subsection 7(4) of the Act; and
(d) if the application is an EPBC referral deemed application involving an action—any decision made under subsection 87(1) of the Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999 in relation to the action.
> Note: The Authority may have the information described in paragraph (a):
(a) because it was included in the application or in a document accompanying the application; or
(b) if paragraph (d) applies, because the information was provided to the Authority by the Minister administering the Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999 or by the Department administered by that Minister; or
(c) for another reason.
#### Subdivision 2A.3A.2—Assessment by public information package

### Division 8.2—Amount of charge and payment
#### Subdivision 1—Standard tourist program charges
#### 140 Meanings of terms
(1) In this Subdivision:
> charge year means a period of 12 months beginning on 1 April.
> standard tourist program charge has the meaning given by subregulation 141(2).
(2) For this Subdivision, a visitor takes part in a program if the visitor participates (wholly or partly) in the excursions or activities provided in the Marine Park by the permission holder who provides the program.
#### 141 Standard tourist program charge
(1) In this regulation:
> CPI means the Consumer Price Index (All Groups) for Brisbane, using, as a reference base, the financial year ending on 30 June 1990.
> CPI base date, for a charge year, means 31 December in the previous charge year.
(2) The standard tourist program charge is:
(a) during the charge years beginning on 1 April 1998 and 1 April 1999—$4.00; and
(b) during any later charge year—the greater of:
(i) $4.00; and
(ii) the amount worked out as set out in subregulation (3).
(3) The amount for the second charge year after the current charge year (the second charge year) is worked out as follows:
(a) work out the indexed amount, for the second charge year, of the STPC by the formula:
where:
> STPC is the standard tourist program charge for the current charge year; and
> new CPI is the CPI on the CPI base date for the second charge year; and
> old CPI is the CPI on 31 December 1997.
Then:
(b) subtract the standard tourist program charge for the current charge year from the amount so worked out; and
(c) if the difference between the indexed amount and the standard tourist program charge for the current charge year is negative, or is positive but is less than $0.40, the standard tourist program charge for the second charge year is the same as that for the current charge year; and
(d) if the difference is $0.40 or more but less than $0.90, the standard tourist program charge for the second charge year is $0.50 greater than that for the current charge year; and
(e) if the difference is $0.90 or more but less than $1.40, the standard tourist program charge for the second charge year is $1.00 greater than that for the current charge year; and
(f) if the difference is $1.40 or more, the standard tourist program charge for the second charge year is $1.50 greater than that for the current charge year.
> Note: Example:
> Note: To work out the STPC for the charge year beginning on 1 April 2000, the calculation would be:
> Note: (where ‘STPC/1998′ is the standard tourist program charge for the charge year that begins on 1 April 1998).
> Note: Suppose the result is $4.25. According to paragraph (c), the standard tourist program charge for the charge year that begins on 1 April 2000 is still $4.00. If the result were $4.55, the STPC for that charge year would be $4.50, according to paragraph (d).
#### 142 Payment of standard tourist program charge—general rule

#### 201 Offences involving a vehicle—liability of owner
(1) This regulation identifies who it is that bears liability for the commission of an offence under these Regulations involving a vehicle.
(2) If the offence is committed by the person in charge of the vehicle, the owner of the vehicle at the time the offence is committed is taken to have committed the offence.
(3) However, the owner of the vehicle is not taken to have committed the offence if:
(a) the vehicle was, at the time of the offence, stolen or illegally taken; or
(b) for an owner who is not a body corporate—within 14 days after the date of an infringement notice served under regulation 192 or within 14 days after service of a summons for the alleged offence, the owner gives to the Authority a statutory declaration made by him or her stating:
(i) that it is made for subregulation (3) of this regulation; and
(ii) that he or she was not in charge of the vehicle at the time of the alleged offence; and
(iii) the name and address of the person who was in charge of the vehicle at that time; or
(c) for an owner that is a body corporate—within 14 days after the date of an infringement notice served under regulation 192 or within 14 days after service of a summons for the alleged offence, a director, manager or secretary of the body corporate gives to the Authority a statutory declaration made by him or her stating:
(i) that it is made for subregulation (3) of this regulation; and
(ii) that the vehicle was not being used by or for the body corporate at the time of the alleged offence; and
(iii) the name and address of the person who was in charge of the vehicle at that time.
(4) At the hearing of a prosecution of an owner for an offence involving a vehicle, a certificate signed by the Authority stating that the owner has not given to the Authority a statutory declaration relating to the offence is evidence of the matter so stated.
(5) For subregulation (4), a document that purports to have been signed by the Authority is to be taken to have been so signed unless the contrary is proved.
(6) This regulation does not affect the liability of a person who is not the owner of a vehicle involved in an offence against these Regulations if the person would otherwise be liable for the offence.
#### 202 Copy of statutory declaration to be served
(1) This regulation applies if a person is named in a statutory declaration given under paragraph 201(3)(b) or (c) as being the person who was in charge of a vehicle at the time of an alleged offence involving the vehicle.
(2) A copy of the statutory declaration must:
(a) if an infringement notice for the offence is to be served on the person after the statutory declaration is given—be attached to the infringement notice when it is served; or
(b) if the person is to be prosecuted for the offence and paragraph (c) does not apply—be attached to the summons for the offence when it is served on the person; or
(c) if the person is to be prosecuted for the offence and a summons for the offence was served on the person before the statutory declaration was given—be served on the person at least 3 days before the commencement of the hearing for the offence.
(3) The statutory declaration is admissible in evidence in a prosecution for the offence against the person and is evidence that the person was in charge of the vehicle at that time.
#### 203 Infringement notice not compulsory, etc
Nothing in this Part is to be taken to:
(a) require that a person suspected of having contravened a provision of these Regulations be served with an infringement notice; or

(iii) the person does not comply with an infringement notice; or
(c) limit the penalty that may be imposed by a court on a person convicted of an offence; or
