STATEMENT OF REASONS

DECISION NOT TO PROVISIONALLY REGISTER 
THE KINGSTON FORESHORE POPULUS EUPHRATICA 
(Euphrates Poplar) 
(Block 3 Section 51 Kingston) 
IN THE ACT HERITAGE REGISTER

The Council has decided, at this stage, not to enter the Kingston Foreshore Populus Euphratica (euphrates poplar), Kingston, in the ACT Heritage Register because:

1.	Under Section 3A(1) of the Heritage Act 2004 the ACT Heritage Council ‘must not register an individual tree in a built up urban area’; 

2.	The tree’s natural and cultural values are recognised and protected in the ACT Tree Register (PTR127), and the details are included on the ACT Heritage Database, providing public access to information about the ACT’s heritage.
