FAQs

Management plans are the main strategic documents used to manage reserves in South Australia. They set the strategic direction, contain information on park values and threats, and outline the objectives and strategies for how parks will be managed. Management plans, as well as any amendments which come after the plans have been enacted, are developed through a process that includes a statutory three-month public consultation, review by the Parks and Wilderness Council, and final endorsement by the Minister for Climate, Environment and Water. 

Mapping in the plan was developed to show indicative routes of some proposed trails to link new sites within Flinders Chase National Park. These amendments to the plan update some maps to reflect the agreed trail routes that have been determined by further on ground assessments and engagement with stakeholders. 

At the conclusion of the three-month consultation period, all feedback received will be collated, analysed and used in developing the final amendment to the plan. 

Submissions on the plan amendments and the final amendments will be submitted to the Parks and Wilderness Council for advice before being submitted to the Minister for Climate, Environment and Water for adoption in the first half of 2024.
