Acknowledgments

Environment Australia would like to thank all members of the Recovery Team, who often laboured under difficult conditions.

Members or groups of members and colleagues from within their industries or government sectors have drafted many sections of this plan. Dr Colin Limpus prepared the biological descriptions of marine turtles and collated the information presented in the mortality tables. Peter Pender (Northern Land Council) and Bill Risk (Larrakia Nation) provided valuable insights during the Recovery Team meeting in Darwin.

Although there were no representatives from Tasmania on the Recovery Team, Rosemary Gales, Sally Bryant and Catherine Bone of the Department of Primary Industries, Water and Environment – Nature Conservation Branch and Gwen Fenton, Marine Environment Section, Department of Primary Industries, Water and Environment, provided the information on marine turtles in Tasmania.
