Mr. Lewis
It has come to my attention that 'Noosa Quad Bikes Tours' has applied for an application to operate quad bikes in the Noosa Hinterland. I believe that they intend to be travelling along Tablelands Road at Cooran and into the National Parks.
I strongly object to this proposal for the following reasons

*	The danger to wildlife in the area 
*	The potential damage to roads - (Tablelands Road is an unsealed road) and the tracks through the National Parks 
*	The noise pollution, which due to the shape of the land in this area will reflect back through peaceful Cooran. 
*	National Parks are for the use of all to enjoy nature and do no damage to the environment, quad bike will be detrimental to this philosophy.

If this is permitted to go ahead, it sets a precedent for other use of recreational vehicles in our parks.
I urge you to vote against this proposal.
Yours sincerely
Maureen Austin
