The Inland Fisheries Service continues to maintain navigation lights at major boat ramps across Tasmania. The lights were installed at 34 boat ramps in a joint project with MAST and Hydro Tasmania in 2014. Light batteries need to be periodically replaced and redundant lights upgraded. A replacement light was installed at the Lake Barrington rowing course boat ramp recently.

These automatic lights activate at dusk each day and provide a flashing beacon until daylight the next day.
