Designated landscape areas
Each of the areas indicated was declared a ‘designated landscape area’ in accordance with the Cultural Record (Landscapes Queensland and Queensland Estate) Act 1987.
Under the provisions of the now repealed Act, an area was declared a ‘designated landscape area’ if it was necessary or desirable for it to be preserved to prevent or regulate access. No further areas will be declared designated landscape areas.
Areas identified as designated landscape areas are recorded on the Cultural Heritage Register as required by the Aboriginal Cultural Heritage Act 2003, section 162.
The Cultural Heritage Register is intended to be a depository for information for consideration for land use and land use planning, and a research and planning tool to help people in their consideration of the Aboriginal cultural heritage values of particular objects and areas.
