The Great Barrier Reef is a World Heritage Listed area, nobody can mine it or put an oil or gas rig on or in it, the issue here is that run off could or will affect the reef, there is Agricultural runoff through the rivers, the potential for dredging and then dumping of mine waste within the marine park which i think got cancelled, increased Marine activity from shipping,and the latest is a possible loading area for super carriers for coal and possible dredging to allow those carriers access, i have no idea what the answer is, but it will all come down to whether or not Adani is able to go ahead with it's Carmichael mine, whether labour gets in and cancels the $4 billion dollar rail donation for the mine and there is yet the question of where Adani is going to find the $6 billion it still needs to develop the mine, with most banks not interested, unless of course one of our own banks steps up to the plate or the Federal government steps in to assist, i really think this is just a political football at the moment, but who knows, strange things happen.

I still say the question was loaded.
