MYSTERY CACHE NOT AT THE POSTED COORDINATES. CAN YOU TELL THE FOREST FROM THE TREES?
The National Trusts of Australia have collaborated to create a National Register of Significant Trees. This Register is consistent with our mission to protect and celebrate Australia's heritage.
There are 2,000 significant tree records compiled over 30 years by the National Trusts across Australia, these records are now in the process of being updated by volunteers and loaded into the National Register.
Once trees are included on the Significant Tree Register, committees in each state and territory advocate for statutory protection for all registered trees under the relevant local planning laws and promote awareness of the value of significant trees.
The Hepburn Significant Tree Register – Statements of Significance Report 2015 contains recommendations for the inclusion of trees or groups of trees onto Council’s Significant Tree Register and the application of the Heritage Overlay or the Vegetation Protection to protect these trees. The Hepburn Significant Tree Register provides clear guidelines about how to undertake survey and assessment of nominated trees and prepare statements of significance for registered trees.
