Definitions:
- Environmental
Mangement (EMC) charges:
- The
Environmental Management Charge or EMC is a charge payable
by most commercial operators granted permits by the Great
Barrier Reef Marine Park Authority (GBRMPA). This includes
operators conducting tourist programs and non- tourist commercial
charters plus those operating facilities in the Great Barrier
Reef Marine Park (GBRMP). Visitors to the reef participating
in a tourist activity are now liable to pay the charge to
the permit holder. The
role of the operator in relation to the charge is to collect
and remit the charge to the GBRMPA. Charges will be collected
for the first 3 days of an extended charter. Fourth or subsequent
days of an extended charter will only be collected if the
visitor participates in an activity with another permit holder.
- Port
charges:
- Port
charges are determined by the Cairns
Port Authority. Every passenger
coming through
the Cairns Marlin Marina pays a passenger levy to the Cairns
Port Authority. This levy is collected by the operators and
remitted to the authorities.
- Fuel
and Administration charges:
- These
fees and charges have been set by the individual operators
and they can therefore vary from one operator to another.
