Attached to the e-mail Operational Works Application OPW16/0338.
Aboriginal Cultural Heritage Act 2003
There may be a requirement to establish a Cultural Heritage Management Plan and/or obtain approvals
pursuant to the Aboriginal Cultural Heritage Act 2003.
The ACH Act establishes a cultural heritage duty of care which provides that: “A person who carries out
an activity must take all reasonable and practicable measures to ensure the activity does not harm
Aboriginal cultural heritage.” It is an offence to fail to comply with the duty of care. Substantial monetary
penalties may apply to individuals or corporations breaching this duty of care. Injunctions may also be
issued by the Land Court, and the Minister administering the Act can also issue stop orders for an
activity that is harming or is likely to harm Aboriginal cultural heritage or the cultural heritage value of
Aboriginal cultural heritage.
You should contact the Cultural Heritage Unit on 07 32476212 to discuss any obligations under the
ACH Act.
Yours sincerely
Jarrod Murphy
