this is looking like breakthrough country now<br/>

more comments & questions mixed in below<br/>
<br/>

<blockquote><span title="ireply"> &gt;&gt;possibly in combination with the previous item<br/>
&gt;&gt;an attempt to define the full extent of the port authority of canberra<br/>
&gt;&gt;upon which the whole jervis bay territory idea was originally predicated<br/>
&gt;&gt;   perhaps most likely of all<br/>
&gt;&gt;<br/>
&gt;<br/>
&gt;This was my understanding, that it says :this is the harbour for ACT and is<br/>
&gt;outside NSW control. Note that the land boundary is defined as the<br/>
&gt;highwatermark along the coastline all around, meaning the rest of the waters<br/>
&gt;are NSW, once you step off the beach.<br/>
<br/>
<br/>
 </span></blockquote>understood that the harbor & indeed everything south of the boundary &or<br/>
allocation line is outside nsw control<br/>
& also understood that the high water mark is the standard boundary at<br/>
least for the remainder of jervis bay territory<br/>
  if not also the standard thruout the remainder of australia<br/>
but i still dont see how this means there are any nsw coastal waters here<br/>
  or how there can be any state waters anywhere in oz for that matter<br/>
& am still guessing & hoping that all aussie coastal waters are reserved to<br/>
the commonwealth or crown<br/>
<br/>
if i am mistaken about this<br/>
then the whole extra dozen tripoints go down the drain too<br/>
so i trust you will understand that i would like to press on to either<br/>
confirm or bust my surmise<br/>
& i believe my best hope may be in your hands<br/>
within the text of the originating treaty you mentioned in message 1015<br/>
seeing as this marine boundary sector  if that is what it is  may well<br/>
prove to be unique in all australia<br/>
<br/>
<blockquote><span title="ireply"> &gt;Interestingly, 2 of the piers in Jervis Bay cross the boundary line and<br/>
&gt;their ends are in NSW. This may have practical implications for mooring at<br/>
&gt;differnet places along their length, and also for wharf fishermen. Though as<br/>
&gt;they seem to be part of the RAN base, civilians won&#39;t get much chance to<br/>
&gt;find out, as I bet the Federal Police and the Mil Police have authrority<br/>
&gt;right along their length, so you can&#39;t run to the end and jump off to evade<br/>
&gt;them.<br/>

 </span></blockquote>great sitcom<br/>
sounds like a stealthy amphibious approach will be necessary<br/>
<br/>
again my guess places the pier ends in nsw per the allocation principle<br/>
  but not so of the surrounding waters beyond the jbt waters<br/>
much like either half of the boundary islet in bass strait i suppose<br/>
<br/>
<br/>
<br/>
yikes<br/>
i just realized<br/>
technically this bizarre arrangement if confirmed would produce 4<br/>
additional jbt nsw crown waters tripoints<br/>
1 on each side of each pier where the line intersects them<br/>
& would thus raise the ozzy tripoint total to 20</div>
