Franklin River
The
Franklin River
lies in the
Franklin-Gordon Wild Rivers National Park
in the heart of the
Tasmanian Wilderness
World Heritage Area. The Franklin River itself has become synonymous with
Australia
's largest conservation battle - the battle to save the Franklin from a proposed hydro-electric power scheme, the
Franklin Dam
. This saw
Robin Gray
's Liberal Government come up against the
Tasmanian Wilderness Society
, led by its director
Bob Brown
and a variety of other groups, in a battle that lasted four years. The river was eventually saved after a ruling of the
High Court of Australia
.
