where do these rules apply? and does the no fire or camping mean that you can be fined for camping at maclean creek , unless in the paid campground?

These rules have always been in place. The fines for the offences have just increased dramatically. So either they will enforce them similariliy to how they did before and if you didn't get fined before, you shouldn't get fined now. The other option is that now that the fines have some bite, they may decide its worth the effort to fine people for these offences. I think if you are out behaving yourself not being a jackass, you should be fine. If you are doing multiple things wrong and give the Forestry Officer attitude he can now throw the book at you.
