of the quarry, while allowing for select removal and pruning of some dominant tree species to maintain the visual relationship between the Lighthouse and the sea;
       * Reveal a small part of the quarry to aid in its interpretation;
       * Conserve and reconstruct the Greenway retaining wall, and interpret the footprints of former Greenway structures;
       * Interpret the former Engineer and Assistant's Quarters;
       * Remove intrusive buildings and fences;
       * Realign fences to enhance the symmetry associated with the compound;
       * Preserve and improve the visual prominence of the Lighthouse and views to and from the site;
       * Improve views to and from the Lighthouse by select removal of intrusive trees and shrubs;
       * Upgrade and rationalise services to the site; and
       * Improve public access to the site, and rationalise vehicular access arrangements.

The primary objective of the proposed design improvements is to convey the sense of place that characterises the lighthouse compound, while improving public access, enhancing views and interpreting the site's heritage values.

The significant heritage values of the precinct will be protected, conserved and interpreted. The Lighthouse will be retained as a light beacon and the Harbour Trust will continue operating tours of it and the site.

The Harbour Trust will work closely with AMSA to ensure that the building is appropriately conserved and that the interpretive material within it is relevant to the site and its history. The Harbour Trust will also liaise closely with the lessees on the site to ensure that the heritage values of the Head Keeper's and Assistant Keepers' Quarters are protected and enhanced.

The proposed changes are modest but will make a significant difference to how the site is experienced. The removal of intrusive elements – such as inappropriate plantings, electrical infrastructure and some buildings - will allow the public to better appreciate the site's visual and heritage qualities.

The Harbour Trust will liaise closely with the site's lessees and adjoining land managers to ensure that the heritage values of the place continue to be protected, enhanced and interpreted.

7.1. Lighthouse and Compound Area

Under the terms of the lease, AMSA is obliged to keep the lighthouse in good order and repair, and in a safe condition. AMSA continues to follow the AMSA heritage management systems for the care and maintenance of the building.

The Harbour Trust will work closely with AMSA to ensure that the interior and exterior of the lighthouse is appropriately conserved and any interpretive material located within the lighthouse is well maintained and is relevant to the site and its history.

To maintain the lighthouse's significant landmark qualities, the elevated compound area around the lighthouse (contained in Lot 2 DP
