to conserve heritage values of Cape St Albans Lighthouse).
   5.2  Condition and integrity of Commonwealth heritage values
A heritage-monitoring program was implemented in 2016. Each site is visited and reviewed every two years to evaluate the heritage fabric and values of the site. Assessment of the condition and integrity of lighthouse's values are derived from the latest available Heritage asset condition report, produced by AMSA's maintenance contractor.
'Condition' is measured from Good-Sound-Poor and incorporates the current condition of the specific value. Integrity is measured from High-Medium-Low and incorporates the value's intactness. Cape St Albans Lighthouse's Commonwealth heritage values and its associated attributes, maintain good condition and high integrity.
Value                         Attributes                                                                   Condition  Integrity
Criterion A) Processes        The whole of the lighthouse including tower, curtilage and modified optics.  Good       High

Criterion E) Aesthetic value  The whole of the lighthouse including tower, curtilage and modified optics.  Good       High

   5.3  Gain or loss of Commonwealth heritage values
Evidence for the potential gain or loss of heritage values will be documented within this section in future versions of the plan.

  6.   Opportunities and constraints
   6.1  Implications arising from significance
The Commonwealth statement of significance (section 5.1 above) demonstrates Cape St Albans Lighthouse is a place of considerable heritage value due to its contribution to navigational assistance as one of the earliest unattended lights established in South Australia.
The implication arising from this assessment is that key aspects of the place should be conserved to retain this significance. The key features requiring conservation include:
       * continued use of the lighthouse as an AtoN
       * architectural quality of the building
       * interior spaces and features, which are notable for their design, details and/or their original lighthouse function. These include:
       -          lantern room
       -          lens assembly
       -          ground floor
       * external spaces and features, which are notable for their design, details, and/or their original lighthouse function. These include:
       -          lantern roof and glazing
       -          balcony
       -          walls
       -          external ladder
       -          door
       -          apron paving
       -          fence.

Referral and approvals of action
The EPBC Act requires approval from the Minister for the Environment for all actions likely to have a significant impact on matters of National Environmental Significance (NES).
The Act provides that actions taken:
    * on Commonwealth land, which are likely to have a significant impact on the environment, will require approval of the Minister.
    * outside Commonwealth land, which are likely to have a significant impact on the environment on Commonwealth land, will require approval of the Minister.
    * by the Australian Government or its agencies, which are likely to have a significant impact on the environment anywhere, will require approval of the Minister.
