             2.2              Cultural heritage management

         Our aim
         Identify, protect, conserve and interpret to the public the cultural heritage values of the park and botanic garden.

         Background
         The park and botanic garden values include historic cultural heritage values. The area which is now the Mount Pitt Section of the park has been the site of a number of significant events in the human history of the island, including its discovery and settlement by Europeans and its defence during World War II. The park contains a number of heritage artefacts relating to World War II.

         Phillip Island is a listed place on the Commonwealth Heritage List.

         In accordance with the s.367 of the EPBC Act, where a Commonwealth reserve includes a Commonwealth Heritage place, a management plan for the reserve must not be inconsistent with the Commonwealth Heritage management principles prescribed by the EPBC Regulations (Schedule 7B).

         Issue
         Knowledge about the historical features of the park and botanic garden needs to be broadened.
