heritage management.

Policy 11 – Seek heritage advice and apply best heritage practice.

 AMSA will continue to use in-house heritage expertise, external consultancy, or a combination of both as required in order to successfully apply best heritage practice. Should in-house heritage
 expertise be limited in responding to a requirement, external heritage expertise will be engaged to address the issue.

 Implementation strategy:

•          Apply in-house heritage expertise when required.

•          Use tools such as the Burra Charter and Working Together: Managing Commonwealth Heritage Places (Commonwealth of Australia, 2019) in measuring the likely impact of proposals.

•          Seek external heritage expertise in the event of limited in-house capability.

Policy 12 – Appropriate protocol in the event of unforeseen discoveries or disturbances of heritage within the AMSA site.

 AMSA's scope of work rarely involves excavation. Should extensive work need to be undertaken, AMSA will implement a suitable cultural heritage management plan (CHMP) and seek advice
 from suitably qualified personnel as required. Assessments will be carried out on any potential impacts to the place's cultural or natural significance as a nature reserve and gazetted Aboriginal
 Place. In the event of any unforeseen discovery or disturbance of heritage-related items within the AMSA site, notification to the appropriate organisation will occur in accordance with the conditions of the CHMP. This plan will also be updated accordingly.

 Note: In most cases generally AMSA's leases are limited to the immediate vicinity of the lighthouse and therefore this scenario is not anticipated as a likely occurrence.

 Implementation strategy:

•          Carry out assessments on any potential impact to natural or cultural significance prior to any excavations.

•          Seek appropriate heritage advice and apply best practice in the event of unforeseen discoveries or disturbances.

Policy 13 – Make this Heritage Management Plan available to all persons involved in decision- making on the management of the Lighthouse and its setting.

 The plan will be made available to all personnel intrinsic to management of the lighthouse and its setting, for example AMSA maintenance contractors, staff and other relevant parties.

 Implementation strategy:

•          Provide links to this plan via the AMSA publicly accessible website.

•          Provide copies to all relevant personnel and parties.

Future Developments

 Policy 14 – Adaptation of the place using methods or processes that minimize impact on heritage values and significance in accordance with Burra Charter principles.

 It is likely that over time the lighthouse will house new equipment as technology changes and improves. The Burra Charter principles will be used as the basis for decision-making.

 Implementation strategy:

•          Assess the likely impacts of changes on the
   heritage values and significance of the place.

•          Preserve the original fabric of the place and do only what is necessary for the continued
