       * Utilising specific access tracks to ensure no damage to surrounding vegetation,
       * Ensuring project footprint is limited to the AMSA lease. In any instance that work is required outside of this footprint, approvals will be sought from the appropriate stakeholders, and
       * Consulting with the Department of Primary Industries, Parks, Water and Environment (Aboriginal Heritage Tasmania) in the event heritage artefacts/sites are uncovered or suspected during works.
       * Implementing an appropriate discovery plan in the instance Aboriginal cultural heritage is suspected and/or found.

  6.2 Framework: sensitivity to change
Owing to the site's association with the development of the region, its rare design, and its prominence in the landscape, Table Cape Lighthouse is of high significance. Therefore, work actioned by AMSA on the lighthouse's fabric harnesses the potential to reduce or eradicate the significance of the site's heritage values.
Conservation works, including restoration and reconstruction, or adaption works of the absolute minimum so as to continue the lighthouse's usefulness as an AtoN are the only works that should be actioned by AMSA on Table Cape Lighthouse. Some exceptions are made for health and safety requirements, however any and all work carried out must be conducted in line with heritage considerations and requirements of the EPBC Act.
The table below demonstrates the level of sensitivity attributed to the various elements of the fabric register in the face of change. These are measured on a High-Moderate-Low spectrum depending on the action's possible threat to the site's heritage values.
High sensitivity
              High sensitivity to change includes instances wherein a change would pose a major threat to the heritage value of a specific fabric, or the lighthouse as a whole. A major threat is one that would lead to substantial or total loss of the heritage value.

Moderate sensitivity
              Moderate sensitivity to change includes instances wherein a change would pose a moderate threat to the heritage value of a specific fabric, or would pose a threat to the heritage significance of a specific fabric in another part of the building. A moderate threat is one that would diminish the heritage value, or diminish the ability of an observer to appreciate the value.
Low sensitivity
              Low sensitivity to change includes instances wherein a change would pose little to no threat to the heritage value of a specific fabric, and would pose little to no threat to heritage significance in another part of the building.
