thence generally south-easterly along that high water mark of the southern coastline of Cockatoo Island for approximately 4 kilometres to the point on that high water mark closest to latitude
16º 06’ 02.29” south, longitude 123º 36’ 41.47” east;
thence north-easterly inland onto Cockatoo island for a distance of approximately 35 metres along an unfenced line on the south-eastern side of the ore concentrate shed and western side of the ore loading wharf to a point at latitude 16º 06’ 01.31” south, longitude 123º 36’ 42.05” east;

Notes:
1. The ‘high water mark’ referred to in the Port Description and associated maps means the line of ‘mean high water springs’.
2. Unless otherwise stated, all coordinates are in reference to the WGS 84 geodetic datum.
3. In the event that a point of latitude and longitude which is stated to lie on the high water mark is found to lie on the landward or seaward side of the high water mark the point is to be regarded as being the point on the high water mark closest to that point of latitude and longitude.
4. Unless stated otherwise, the Security Regulated Port described above includes all water and land inside the area and excludes all private or recreational wharves, jetties and marinas.
6. Unless otherwise stated the lines between coordinates are geodesic lines.
7. This description should be read in conjunction with the Security Regulated Port Boundary map. In the event of an inconsistency between the written description and the map, the former prevails.
8. This description and the associated maps have been compiled from information provided in April 2010 by the Office of Transport Security, Department of Infrastructure, Transport, Regional Development and Local Government and the Western Australian Land Administration Authority.
