About Dharawal National Park
In 1927 the O’Hares Creek Catchment was proclaimed a water catchment, but it was decided in 1978 that the catchment would not be used for water supply, and so the government of New South Wales proposed creating a state recreation area over the catchment. However, it took until 1996 before the catchment area was declared a nature reserve and state recreation area (the park later became a state conservation area (SCA) due to a bill passed in 2001). Since the state conservation area was established, there was Tahe distinction between the nature reserve and SCA, with the difference being coal mining being allowed in the state conservation area. On March 26, 2012, most of the Dharawal State Conservation Area was declared a national park with a residual of three areas of state conservation area
