DBCA - Legislated Lands and Waters (DBCA-011)

Department of Biodiversity, Conservation and Attractions (DBCA).

The DBCA Legislated Lands and Waters data set shows all lands and waters defined under acts which are applicable to DBCA. These include the CALM Act 1984, Swan and Canning Rivers Management Act 2006 and lands identified under the Land Administration Act 1997 such as Crown reserve vested in Botanical Gardens and Parks, Crown reserve vested in the Zoological Gardens Board and Crown reserve vested in the Rottnest Island Authority. Tenure categories include but not limited to, national park, nature reserve, conservation park, marine park, marine nature reserve, marine management area, section 5(1)(g) reserves, State forest and timber reserves. This dataset is a March 2022 extract from the SCDB with approved enhancements and updates from the GIS Branch where required.

Note that this layer, together with the DBCA - Lands of Interest data set, replace the DPaW Managed Lands and Waters data set. Both data sets are required to get the same scope/information as the old data set. Tenure is a dynamic dataset - for enquiries regard current tenure status please contact the DBCA - Land Services Co-ordinator/Policy and Planning/Land Unit - 9219 8777.

This dataset was formally known as DPAW Managed Lands and Waters (DPAW-026)
