All Parks Victoria managed piers and jetties have colour coded signs identifying temporary berthing zones, loading zones, short term zones and permit only zones.

Relevant legislation

Parks Victoria issues authorities for the mooring or berthing of vessels in accordance with the Port Services (Local Ports) Regulations 2004. Regulation 205, 206, 208 and 212 cover the authorities for mooring and berthing sites.
