Description

From a paper presented at "The past at work: Industrial history conference", April 21 - 22 1990, Melbourne.

Abstract

The Department of Conservation and Environment is responsible for the management of 38% of Victoria, that is public land reserved as national parks, state forests, a multitude of reserves along the coastline, in towns and cities and around specific features, natural or manmade. The general public (and most of our staff) expect us to be managing natural resources for long term conservation - the "green and furries" of the countryside. Implicit in this duty is the expectation that we will enhance, improve, "tidy up" the bush and keep it looking well managed, cared for and accessible.
