FISHERIES ACT 1995 - SECT 86

Prevention of spread of aquatic noxious species

If the Victorian Fisheries Authority is satisfied that—

        (a)     a noxious aquatic species has become established in any protected waters; and

        (b)     there is no practical means of killing or removing the noxious aquatic species

the Victorian Fisheries Authority may take any action necessary to delay or prevent the spread of the noxious aquatic species from the waters in which it is established to other waters.
