 (c) state how the natural features of the reserve, or of each zone of the reserve, are to be protected and conserved; and
 (d) if the Director holds land or seabed included in the reserve under lease—be consistent with the Director's obligations under the lease; and
 (e) specify any limitation or prohibition on the exercise of a power, or performance of a function, under an Act in or in relation to the reserve; and
 (f) specify any mining operation, major excavation or other work that may be carried on in the reserve, and the conditions under which it may be carried on; and
 (g) specify any other operation or activity that may be carried on in the reserve; and
 (h) indicate generally the activities that are to be prohibited or regulated in the reserve, and the means of prohibiting or regulating them; and
 (i) indicate how the plan takes account of Australia's obligations under each agreement with one or more other countries that is relevant to the reserve (including the World Heritage Convention and the Ramsar Convention, if appropriate); and

The category to which a zone is assigned may differ from the category to which the reserve is assigned.
