Talk:Moorooduc Quarry Flora and Fauna Reserve

What came first the chicken or the egg?

Was the quarry started due to the need for stone ballasting for the railway line? The dates I have suggest David Munro had started work on the quarry site before he was granted the contract for the Baxter to Mornington railway line. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 220.237.57.219 (talk) 10:48, 18 August 2008 (UTC)

Protected area status
The following categories have been removed because there is no evidence of the reserve being a protected area - "Category:Nature reserves in Victoria (Australia)" and "Category:Protected areas established in 1973". A search of the following sources returned a NIL result - Parks Victoria website and Terrestrial Protected Areas in Victoria (2016) at the Australian Government's CAPAD 2016 webpage. The small amount of contemporary sources suggest that it is possibly a reserve managed by local government for recreational purposes. Regards Cowdy001 (talk) 00:59, 24 January 2019 (UTC)
