Biosecurity Act 2014

The barrier fence is shown on the electronic map called ‘Barrier Fence Map for Queensland’ (the barrier fence map) held by the department, as amended from time to time under this section.

The chief executive may amend the barrier fence map to more accurately show the location of the barrier fence or of any adjustment of the fence.

Before amending the barrier fence map under subsection (2), the chief executive must consult with—

the building authority, other than the chief executive, for the barrier fence part affected by the amendment; and

any owner of land affected by the amendment.

If the chief executive decides to amend the barrier fence map, the chief executive must create a new version of the map that includes the amendment and notify the following that the amendment has been made—

the invasive animal board for the barrier fence part affected by the amendment;

the local government—

for the barrier fence part affected by the amendment; or

for the area within which the barrier fence part affected by the amendment is located, if there is no local government as mentioned in subparagraph (i);

any owner of land affected by the amendment.

The chief executive may, without charge, publish the barrier fence map on the department’s website or make the map available for inspection at the department’s head office during business hours.
