Queensland's Environmental Protection Agency has charged former Australian Rugby League star Jarrod McCracken and his company Crackers Corp with eight offences for alleged unauthorised clearing and earthworks on his 387ha property at Clarkes Cove in north Queensland.

It's alleged McCracken cleared rare bottle trees from the site without permission, damaged native vegetation on state coastal land and Dryander National Park, and caused sediment to run off into the Great Barrier Reef Marine Park.
