Default Sea dumping in Australia: Historical and contemporary aspects

See http://deh.gov.au/coasts/pollution/d...ppendices.html

I'm posting this here as I recall someone (Keith?) had lost this reference. It was in a thread about dumping trucks etc. in the sea.

Oh well.

Default Wasn't me

although perhaps I've forgotten that bit too!
Interesting to have a bit of a trawl (pun intended) around the site to see how mant exhaust valves were dumped(!)

Nope, I can now confirm it wasn't you - 't was the other high frequency Aussie poster, Tony in Australian surplus auctions:

This site details some of the thousands of tons of Chemical and Conventional Ammunition dumped just miles off the coast all around Australia. I had once found a site that gave coordinates and descriptions of all Defence dump sites off the coast detailing what was dumped there, 75x 3 ton trucks, 400 tons M/T spares, 55 tons 3in Mortar ammn, and so on but I CAN"T FIND THE WEBSITE AGAIN!
Seems I discovered the same site Tony found, instead of finding the really important one about the dumped trucks
