Yet it is perfectly legal to take water form any of the creeks that flow to the ocean. There is millions of litres of water that flow across the beach every day on Fraser but for some reason it is not legal to use this water before it comes to the surface.Can I use a water spear (that is, a device to pierce the ground to obtain water from underground)?
No, this interferes with a natural resource (which is an offence under the Nature Conservation Act) and QPWS cannot guarantee the quality of the water.
How on earth do we get rid of the morons that are making these rules?
This is from the same people that will fine you heavily if you damage any Flora on the island but then they can turn around and bulldoze acres and acres of it to put up Dingo fences.
