If your Authorised Mooring Contractor is unable to resolve the issue, you may contact moorings@parks.vic.gov.au to advise of the issue.

Please be aware that the mooring permit issued by Parks Victoria simply allows mooring tackle to be installed on the seabed – it does not give you ownership of the seabed or of the water surrounding your mooring tackle.
