TheApproval Flowchart [[3]] provides an overview of the requirements.
Before placing a geocache you should make contact with the local QPWS office seeking advice on the placemenet criteria for that area. The QPWS Park Enquiries team ( info@nprsr.qld.gov.au ) can provide details of local QPWS contacts.
The local QPWS will advise you if a formal Application Form[[4]]is to be lodged or if alternative approval processes apply for that area.
Except for micro caches a Geocaching Information Sheet [[5]] must be placed inside the geocache
