7.5.2. Great Barrier Reef Marine Park zoning
Under the Great Barrier Reef Marine Park Zoning Plan 2003, part of Dent Island is designated a Commonwealth Islands Zone and may be used or entered without permission for low impact (non-extractive) activities; photography, filming, sound recording, traditional use of marine resources, and limited educational programs. All other activities require written permission. The waters surrounding Dent Island are designated a Habitat Protection (Dark Blue) Zone. The Dent Island Lightstation Heritage Management Plan is consistent with the objectives of the Commonwealth Islands Zone to ensure minimal environmental impact.

7.5.3. State legislation
The whole of the lightstation and its setting are owned by the Commonwealth, so the place is not entered in the Queensland Heritage Register and the (State) Queensland Heritage Act 1992 does not apply.

7.5.4. GBRMPA management requirements and agency mechanisms
Heritage management considerations and principles have been incorporated within the GBRMPA's administration of the Marine Park. The GBRMPA Board has included heritage matters within the GBRMPA Corporate Plan 2011–2014. In this regard, the GBRMPA adopted the following objectives to adhere to legislative, regulatory and reporting requirements, including heritage obligations.

The GBRMPA has several mechanisms in place to ensure appropriate implementation of heritage management plans. In addition to the Dent Island Lightstation Heritage Management Plan, conservation of heritage values are managed through:

    * Commonwealth Islands zoning, permits and impact assessment requirements
    * policies relating to the protection and values of Dent Island
    * lease requirements for the protection of heritage values.

             + Part of Lot 2 (Lease B) – Lightstation Area commenced on 7 September 2006 with GBRMPA.;
             + Lot 4 – Resort Area commenced on 7 September 2006 with GBRMPA.
    * The AMSA lease for Lot 1 and the rest of Lot 2 (Lease A) relate to the ongoing operation of the lighthouse. It runs from 3 June 2003 for 99 years. The lease stipulates that AMSA retains ownership of the lighthouse and is responsible for its maintenance.
