The future of two marine parks in Geographe Bay is in question as the Federal Department of Environment and Energy reviews the Geographe Commonwealth Marine Reserve. Between July 21 and September 20, the Director of National Parks invited feedback on the draft management plans detailing for 44 Australian Marine Parks around the country. Director of National Parks Sally Barnes said they have received over 82,000 submissions.
