✓ Zone is assigned to the marine park named in column 1. Sections 3.1.2 and 3.1.3 of this plan explain the assignment of zones.
Note: There are two types of Special Purpose Zone (VI): Special Purpose Zone (Trawl) (VI) and Special Purpose Zone (Norfolk) (VI), and two types of Habitat Protection Zone (IV): Habitat Protection Zone (IV) and Habitat Protection Zone (Lord Howe) (IV). The variation in management approach for these zones is prescribed in Part 4.

Outline of Part 4
This plan enables a range of activities to be conducted that would otherwise be prohibited or controlled by the EPBC Act and EPBC Regulations (Schedule 1). This Part sets out for marine parks of the Temperate East Network, which activities are:
 1. allowed, without the need for authorisation, where consistent with zone objectives (Part 3) and conducted in accordance with this Part;
 2. allowable, and able to be conducted if an authorisation is issued (Section 4.4 Authorisation of allowable activities); or
 3. not allowed, because they are not consistent with zone objectives (Part 3).
For those activities that are allowed or allowable, this Part also sets out:
 1. the assessment and decision-making process for authorising an activity (Section 4.3 Making decisions about activities);
 2. the types of authorisations that may be issued (permits, class approvals, activity licences and leases) (Section 4.4 Authorisation of allowable activities); and
 3. how activities must be undertaken in marine parks of the Temperate East Network (Section 4.2 Rules for activities).
The rules support an adaptive management approach to respond to new information. Any changes to the management of activities would be made in accordance with Section 4.3.1 (Decision-making).
Depending on the type of activity, other provisions of the EPBC Act or other legislation (e.g. fisheries and mining laws) may also apply to an allowed or allowable activity (Schedule 1).
In accordance with s.359A of the EPBC Act, this plan does not prevent
