sch.2-sec.7-oc.2 Endeavour Segment
Tidal waters and tidal land, other than tidal waters and tidal land mentioned in subsection (2) , within the following boundary— from the most eastern point of the north bank of the Annan River at H.A.T. then generally northerly along the mainland at H.A.T. to the most northern point where it intersects longitude 145º20.345' east then north along longitude 145º20.345' east to where it intersects latitude 15º13.409' south then east along latitude 15º13.409' south to where it intersects the coastal 5km line around the mainland then generally south-easterly along the coastal 5km line around the mainland to where it intersects the latitude that passes through the most eastern point of South Cape Bedford then southerly along a geodesic to the most western point of the 500m line around Egret Reef (reef 15-013) then southerly 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 north-westerly along a geodesic to the most eastern point of the north bank of the Annan River at H.A.T. For subsection (1) , the Endeavour Segment does not include tidal waters or tidal land within the following areas— the area south of the following line— from where the eastern boundary of the Endeavour River National Park meets the Endeavour River The Endeavour River National Park is shown as lot 206 on plan NPW530. See the Nature Conservation (Protected Areas) Regulation 1994 , schedule 2 (National parks). then generally easterly along the outer boundary of the mangrove forest that adjoins the south bank of the Endeavour River to where the boundary intersects the western bank at the mouth of Racecourse Creek then southerly along the outer boundary of the mangrove forest that adjoins the western bank of Racecourse Creek to where the boundary meets the old railway line that ran along the south bank of the Endeavour River then generally easterly, north-easterly and northerly along the old railway line that ran along the south bank of the Endeavour River to where the railway line intersects the imaginary line extending the southern boundary of Furneaux Street at Cooktown across the Endeavour River then northerly along a geodesic to the most eastern point of the outer boundary of the mangrove forest that adjoins the eastern bank of the middle mouth of Chinaman Creek then northerly along a geodesic to latitude 15º27.719' south, longitude 145º14.483' east then east along latitude 15º27.719' south to the most western point where it intersects the coastal 100m line around the mainland then generally northerly, north-easterly and easterly along the coastal 100m line around the mainland to where it intersects the longitude that passes through where Saunders Street in Cooktown intersects the Esplanade in Cooktown then south along the longitude that passes through where Saunders Street in Cooktown intersects the Esplanade in Cooktown, to the most northern point where the longitude intersects the mainland at H.A.T.; the part of the Endeavour River that is upstream from the line that is 100m downstream from the Endeavour Bridge crossing of the Cooktown-McIvor River Road; the part of the right branch of the Endeavour River that is upstream of where the branch intersects Barratt Creek.
