[QUOTE="BHM14, post: 488938, member: 14400"] According to NAPFA in 2017 To our knowledge there has never been an infringement or prosecution, despite regular field inspection of activities by NSW Fisheries, Parks, DRE and local government staff. This further supports our view that the intention was never to curtail very low impact, short term activities, and that sluicing and high banking activities using pumps, meets other legislation and current expectations. Seems to me that providing high banking is low impact and short term there is zero chance of being prosecuted in the very rare likelihood of any authority taking any action against an individual. Likewise zero chance of confiscation of equipment. Providing that no other law is broken, trespass; offensive noise etc and fossickers comply with all the other requirements of the Mining Regulation 2016 under clause 12; after completion of the work, the soil, rock or other material is replaced in order to reconstruct the original soil profile etc, using a high banker would be risk free.
