Schedule 3—Area that includes the adjacent area The area is bounded by a line that commences at a point that is the intersection of the coastline at mean low water by the boundary between the States of South Australia and Victoria and runs thence southerly along the meridian through that point to its intersection by the parallel of latitude 38° 10′ south, thence south-westerly along the geodesic to a point of latitude 38° 15′ south, longitude 140° 57′ east, thence south-westerly along the geodesic to a point of latitude 38° 26 south, longitude 140° 53′ east, thence south-westerly along the geodesic to a point of latitude 38° 35′ 30″ south, longitude 140° 44′ 37″ east, thence south-westerly along the geodesic to a point of latitude 38° 40′ 48″ south, longitude 140° 40′ 44″ east, thence south‑westerly along the geodesic to a point of latitude 44° south, longitude 136° 29′ east, thence westerly along the parallel of latitude 44° south to a point that is the intersection of that parallel by the meridian passing through the intersection of the coastline at mean low water by the boundary between the States of South Australia and Western Australia, being the meridian of longitude 129° east, thence northerly along that meridian to its intersection by the coastline at mean low water, thence along the coastline of South Australia at mean low water to the point of commencement.
