to arrange for the replacement and upgrading of marine aids to navigation equipment in the lighthouse as required to meet AMSA's service commitment, in a manner that preserves the original fabric of the lighthouse.
       * AMSA Asset Management and Preparedness to maintain information on the heritage fabric  of the lighthouse including any and all actions, treatments and inspection outcomes  within the heritage fabric register. See section 4.1 for fabric register.
       * AMSA Asset Management  and  Preparedness to conserve all the fabric elements identified as significant in the heritage asset condition report.
       * AMSA Asset Management and Preparedness to seek expert materials conservation advice when considering repair, restoration and reconstruction of historic fabric. The relevant local, state and federal heritage approvals must be sought prior to repair, restoration and reconstruction.
       * AMSA AtoN Heritage Coordinator to conserve the distinctive character of the lightstation by collecting photographic evidence and historical documentation of the original fabric.

Uses
Policy 2 – Install and operate equipment in the lighthouse, so that it continues to function as an effective marine aid to navigation, in such a way as to impose the least possible harm to the significant fabric.

Eddystone Point Lighthouse's use as a working marine AtoN is of high priority. Carrying out maintenance, including upgrades to navigational equipment, is necessary to its function and continued marine safety along the TAS  coast. In the event of the installation and/or upgrade to AtoN equipment, proper precaution will be taken to ensure the least possible harm is done to significant fabric.
Implementation strategy:
       * AtoN Maintenance Contractor to monitor Eddystone Point's AtoN  equipment  every 12 months and propose maintenance in the instance of necessary installation or removal. Proposed maintenance is to be approved by AtoN Asset Management and Preparedness.
       * AMSA to outline all possible risks to significant fabric, external and internal, associated with the installation, removal and operation of equipment.
       * AMSA Asset Management and Preparedness to ensure works carried out are those that ensure the least possible harm to significant fabric.
       * AMSA Asset Management and Preparedness to seek expert heritage conservation advice on best practice management of the site during installation, removal and operation of equipment.

Policy 3 – Monitor possible impacts to the site resulting from tourism, and control appropriate access to the lighthouse for contractors and visitors.
Eddystone Point's location and layout allows relatively easy public access,  day or night. Although access inside the lighthouse is restricted to authorised personnel, such as contractors and AMSA employees, official tour groups also oversee admittance of tourists from sunrise to sunset.
AMSA personnel and contractors require easy access inside the lighthouse precinct and tower for periodical site visits to carry out inspections and routine maintenance.
