This report contains the full text of the Land Conservation Council's final recommendations for the Melbourne Area District 2 Review. These provide an ongoing framework for use of public land in Melbourne Area District 2. The recommendations in the text incorporate those for the east part of the LCC's original Melbourne Area investigation, and have been edited to reflect government variations and amendments at the time of approval, and subsequent changes.

The recommendations are grouped under major headings, such as Parks, Nature Conservation Reserves, Reference Areas, Timber production and State forest and so on. Key recommendations are for additions to Kinglake and Dandenong Ranges National Parks, French Island National Park, Yarra Ranges National Park, and Phillip Island Nature Park.

The .pdf maps of the recommendations are scanned versions of the maps as originally published. They have not been edited to reflect any government variations and amendments, and subsequent changes.

Caution - the maps are large files [size indicated].
