sch.2-sec.6-oc.3 Daintree Segment
Tidal waters and tidal land, other than tidal waters and tidal land mentioned in subsection (2) , within the following boundary— from where latitude 16º18.909' south intersects the mainland at H.A.T. then generally northerly along the mainland at H.A.T. to the most eastern point of the north bank of the Annan River at H.A.T. then south-easterly along a geodesic to where latitude 15º33.209' south intersects the geodesic that passes through the following points— the most northern point of the 500m line around Gubbins Reef (reef 15-063) the most western point of the 500m line around Egret Reef (reef 15-013) then southerly along that geodesic to the most northern point of the 500m line around Gubbins Reef (reef 15-063) then south-easterly and southerly along the 500m line around Gubbins Reef (reef 15-063) to its most eastern point then easterly along a geodesic to the most northern point of the 1km line around West Hope Island Reef (reef 15-064) then easterly along a geodesic to the most northern point of the 1km line around East Hope Island Reef (reef 15-065) then generally south-easterly and south-westerly along the 1km line around East Hope Island Reef (reef 15-065) to its most southern point then south-westerly along a geodesic to the most southern point of the 1km line around West Hope Island Reef (reef 15-064) then south-easterly along a geodesic to latitude 16º14.909' south, longitude 145º35.565' east then south-westerly along a geodesic to the most eastern point of the 500m line around Low Islets Reef (reef 16-028) then south-westerly, westerly and north-westerly along the 500m line around Low Islets Reef (reef 16-028) to its most northern point then north-westerly along a geodesic to where the mainland at low water intersects latitude 16º18.909' south then west along latitude 16º18.909' south to where it intersects the mainland at H.A.T. For subsection (1) , the Daintree Segment does not include tidal waters or tidal land within the following areas— the part of the Annan River that is upstream from the downstream side of the bridge near Lung Island; The downstream side of the bridge is on the Cooktown Development Road. the part of the Esk River that is south of latitude 15º34.309' south; the part of Fritz Creek that is west of the western boundary of Cedar Bay National Park; Cedar Bay National Park is shown as lot 212 on plan NPW370. See the Nature Conservation (Protected Areas) Regulation 1994 , schedule 2 (National parks). the parts of Gap Creek, Russell Creek, Hislop Creek and Willie Creek that are upstream of where the creeks intersect the Bloomfield-Rossville Road; the part of the Bloomfield River that is upstream from the latitude that passes through the most southern point of Split Island at low water; the parts of the Daintree River and its tributaries that are upstream from where the river intersects Barratt Creek. (sch.2-sec.6-oc.3-ssec.1) Tidal waters and tidal land, other than tidal waters and tidal land mentioned in subsection (2) , within the following boundary— from where latitude 16º18.909' south intersects the mainland at H.A.T. then generally northerly along the mainland at H.A.T. to the most eastern point of the north bank of the Annan River at H.A.T. then south-easterly along a geodesic to where latitude 15º33.209' south intersects the geodesic that passes through the following points— the most northern point of the 500m line around Gubbins Reef (reef 15-063) the most western point of the 500m line around Egret Reef (reef 15-013) then southerly along that geodesic to the most northern point of the 500m line around Gubbins Reef (reef 15-063) then south-easterly and southerly along the 500m line around Gubbins Reef (reef 15-063) to its most eastern point then easterly along a geodesic to the most northern point of the 1km line around West Hope Island Reef (reef 15-064) then easterly along a geodesic to the most northern point of the 1km line around East Hope Island Reef (reef 15-065) then generally south-easterly and south-westerly along the 1km line around East Hope Island Reef (reef 15-065) to its most southern point then south-westerly along a geodesic to the most southern point of the 1km line around West Hope Island Reef (reef 15-064) then south-easterly along a geodesic to latitude 16º14.909' south, longitude 145º35.565' east then south-westerly along a geodesic to the most eastern point of the 500m line around Low Islets Reef (reef 16-028) then south-westerly, westerly and north-westerly along the 500m line around Low Islets Reef (reef 16-028) to its most northern point then north-westerly along a geodesic to where the mainland at low water intersects latitude 16º18.909' south then west along latitude 16º18.909' south to where it intersects the mainland at H.A.T.
