Glenrcok Draft POM process update

Just a quick update for those of you who took the time to put in a submission to the draft Glenrock POM.

Speaking to NPWS there were over 180 submissions to the proposal, with the vast majority being pro mtb access.

From a mtb stand point, the submissions were positive with the main concern raised being access to the southern area of the park. What NPWS do with this, I don't know, but I am quietly confident that the southern boundary, while not being removed, may be amended. Time will tell.

As expected there were some anti MTB submissions, no specific details as to their content (other than reports of reptiles with mtb tyre tracks down their backs).

There is still a long process to follow, the submissions and the Draft PoM have to go to the Advisory Committee and then the minister, so the earliest we are looking at for a final POM is the end of the year, but things are still looking reasonably good.

I would like to thank those of you who put submissions in as the response has been huge.
