1. Introduction This report provides a description of the ecological values found within the proposed Kainama 2D seismic survey area, herein referred to as ‘the Site’. The results are based on an initial desktop assessment followed by a field survey to confirm the vegetation communities, flora and fauna species, habitat values and areas of disturbance. This report has been compiled by Anjeanette Schimpf, Senior Field Environmental Advisor, Origin Energy. The field surveys were conducted by a small team of ecologists led by Anjeanette Schimpf. Anjeanette Schimpf was approved to undertake ecological surveys by Commonwealth Department of Environment (formerly the Department of Sustainability, Environment, Water, Population and Communities) in writing on 13th September 2012.

1.1. Scope of Works An ecological survey was required to be carried out in anticipation of proposed seismic activities being conducted across the Kainama tenements (ATP692). Due to the negligible land disturbance associated with seismic activities (e.g. slashing only, no clearing of woody vegetation), the field surveys were limited to identifying and mapping the following environmental constraints: 1. Location and extent of Threatened Ecological Communities (TEC) (in accordance with the Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999) (EPBC Act) within the survey area 2. Location and distribution of threat-listed flora and fauna species (in accordance with the EPBC Act and Nature Conservation Act 1992 (NC Act)) within the survey area 3. Location and extent of Endangered Regional Ecosystems (ERE) (in accordance with the Regional Ecosystem Description Database (REDD)) within the survey area 4. Location and distribution Of Concern Regional Ecosystems (OCRE) (in accordance with REDD) within the survey area 5. Essential Habitat areas (as shown on supporting maps to Regulated Vegetation Maps) The ecology field survey was undertaken to support proposed 2D seismic activities in the Kainama area. 2D seismic activities are classified as low impact petroleum activities and will involve slashing of grasses only in some areas. No clearing of woody vegetation will be conducted. As such, Conditions B38 to B45 of the Walloons Environmental Authority are not deemed applicable to 2D seismic activities. Similarly, 2D seismic works do not involve construction or raising of waterway barrier works. As a result of the low impact scope of proposed seismic activities, no watercourse assessments in accordance with the Water Act 2000 or field location of DAFF mapped waterways was undertaken as part of the ecology field survey. The Survey Area is defined as the areas defined in Table 1 below. Refer to Appendix A: Site Location and Survey Points for an overview of the Site and Survey Area. Table 1: Survey area

2. Site Context

Table 6: Site Context

Bioregion and The survey area is located in the Inglewood Sandstones Province (11.32) within the province Brigalow Belt south bioregion. The Inglewood Sandstones province consists of undulating to low hilly country on deeply weathered and laterised Jurassic-Cretaceous sandstone, with associated alluvial plains. Major vegetation types include: Eucalyptus crebra (narrow-leaved ironbark) on hillsides, E. crebra, Callitris glaucophylla (cypress pine) and Allocasuarina luehmannii (bulloak) on solodic soils in gently undulating parts; and E. populnea (poplar box) on lower slopes and flats. There are also minor areas of Acacia harpophylla-Casuarina cristata (brigalow-belah) (Sattler and Williams 1999).

Current land use The survey area comprises a range of different land uses from predominantly cleared land utilised for livestock grazing purposes, to large areas of remnant and regrowth vegetation to partially cleared road reserves.

Geology, landform The Kainama 2D seismic survey lines are distributed across a number of underlying and soils geological units including:  JKk – Lower cretaceous Kumbarilla beds (Mesozoic)  Qa – Holocene alluvium (Cainozoic)  Qs – Pleistocene to Holocene sands, some alluvium and gravel (Cainozoic) Associated landforms and soil types within the survey area include:  Plateaus and low sandstone hills to undulating plains, with lateritic scarps being common. Very shallow, gravelly, red soils and shallow gravelly texture contrast soils. Skeletal soils (mainly rudosols) shallow stony loams derived from sediments  Flat to gently undulating plains derived from weathered sandstone. Bleached sands over mottled, yellowish brown, brown and red clays. Shallow and mainly sandy texture contrast soils (chromosols, sodosols and kurosols)  Gently undulating to flat plains, gently undulating plains on sandstone. Bleached sands over mottled yellow or grey clays, bleached sands and loams over brown and grey clays. Texture contrast soils (chromosols, sodosols and kurosols). Moderately deep to deep sands/loams/brown/grey/dark cracking clays (vertosols) derived from sediments (mainly clay plains)  Flat to gently undulating sandy alluvial plains. Deep sands, deep bleached sands over mottled yellow or grey clays and bleached clay loams over black/grey clays. Texture contrast soils (chromosols/sodosols and kurosols), alluvial (predominantly moderately deep to deep)  Gently undulating to flat plains. Bleached sands over mottled yellow or grey clays. Skeletal soils (mainly rudosols) alluvial deep sands, texture contrast soils (chromosols, sodosols and kurosols), moderately deep to deep sands/loams.

Climate The nearest Bureau of Meteorology (BOM) weather station to the survey area is at the Miles Office, approximately 75 km south-east of the survey area. Yearly average temperatures at Miles range from a mean maximum of 33.2°C in January to a mean minimum of 3.6°C in July (BoM 2016). Average annual rainfall is 649.1mm, with the highest monthly average rainfall occurring in January (96.3 mm) and the lowest occurring in August (29.4 mm) (BoM 2016).

3.2. Field Survey Ecological surveys were conducted in accordance with:  The Methodology for Survey and Mapping of Regional Ecosystems and Vegetation Communities in Queensland (Neldner et al. 2012)  In line with the methodology described in the Environmental Constraints Planning and Field Development Protocol (Q-LNG01-15-MP-0109, Australia Pacific LNG 2011). Field surveys were undertaken between 27th May and 11th and 12th July 2016.

3.2.1. Vegetation Community Survey Baseline botanical surveys were undertaken to describe dominant flora and vegetation community structure throughout the survey area. Botanical surveys were consistent with the quaternary level of data collection as described in Neldner et al. (2012). The vegetation community surveys were undertaken within 50m x 10m plots (where possible) for the purpose of typifying the vegetation community under assessment. Vegetation community data was entered into the data fields provided by the Trimble data capture system. A total of 75 formal vegetation community surveys were undertaken within the survey area. Ground-truthing of the DNRM RE designation (DNRM 2016) at and surrounding the survey area was undertaken via quaternary level and random meanders transect assessments, as defined by Neldner et al. (2012). The locations of the vegetation community survey sites are presented in Appendix A: Site Location and Survey Points. Relative abundance data was collected for each stratum within the community as per the methodology described in the Environmental Constraints Planning and Field Development Protocol (Q-LNG01-15-MP- 0109 Australia Pacific LNG (2011)), as presented by the vegetation structure point data sheet of the Trimble unit. Where necessary, representative photo(s) were taken of the subject vegetation community via the Trimble unit or camera. Photo aspect data was recorded. Vegetation community polygons were verified in accordance with Queensland regional ecosystem (biodiversity status) (Queensland Herbarium 2015) and EPBC TEC criteria (DoTE 2016).

3.2.2. Habitat Surveys Habitat surveys were undertaken in conjunction with vegetation community survey within the 50m x 10m quadrant (where possible). A total of 65 formal habitat surveys were undertaken across the survey area (Appendix A: Site Location and Survey Points). Within each habitat survey, a range of habitat features were recorded on the relevant Trimble data sheet. Where deemed appropriate, representative photo(s) were taken of the given habitat patch via the Trimble unit. Photo aspect data is entered into the relevant data sheet.

3.2.3. Threatened Flora and Fauna Survey Threat-listed species are those listed under the EPBC Act 1999 and the Nature Conservation (Wildlife) Regulation 2006. Targeted threat-listed flora searches were undertaken for species highlighted by the database and literature review, these included Philotheca sporadica (Kogan wax flower), Acacia lauta (Tara wattle), Eucalyptus curtsii (plunkett mallee) and Rutidosis lanata (red-soil woolly wrinklewort). Searches were undertaken based on incidental field observations of high quality habitat, the identification of distinct ecological features through the preliminary desktop and literature review, or within the vicinity of a vegetation community survey/habitat feature plots where field ecologists deemed the given area to be of sufficient potential value to a threatened species to warrant such a search. Fauna species were recorded opportunistically throughout the survey area. Any observations of threatened species (whether within search areas or opportunistically) were recorded using the Trimble data capture system. Where practicable, photo(s) were taken of the subject

Doc Ref: Q-4350-15-RP-006 Revision: 0 Page 16 of 59 Access, Land and Community, Australia Pacific LNG Project Uncontrolled when printed unless issued and stamped Controlled Copy. Ecology Assessment Report REPORT threatened species. Any flora specimens deemed as potential threatened species and not conclusively identified by the ecologists were forwarded to the Queensland Herbarium for verification. Results of the Herbarium assessments can be seen in Appendix B: Herbarium Report of Species Collected on Site.

3.2.4. Exotic Flora and Fauna Survey Presence and abundance of declared flora and fauna as defined by the Land Protection (Pest and Stock Route Management) Act 2002 (LP Act), were recorded at the time of the survey both within survey plots and opportunistically while traversing the Site. Exotic flora and fauna species were entered into the Trimble data capture system when encountered.

3.2.5. Survey Limitations A number of factors are considered likely to influence survey results for particular species or species groups. These factors are:  Timing (seasons) and duration of the survey period  Weather conditions in the preceding seasons and immediately prior to the survey  Restricted spatial area of the habitats within the Site Due to the above-listed items, the surveys undertaken may not provide a true indication of seasonal habitat utilisation by fauna species within the Site. Some cryptic flora species may only be detected during particular flowering periods. The field investigations undertaken were limited to passive techniques (e.g. no live trapping) and were limited to autumn/winter season. Additional survey effort would be required to provide a more comprehensive inventory of species, both threatened and common.

Koala habitat can be broadly defined as any forest or Yes Likely. Habitat and food tree species woodland containing species that are known koala food preferred by this species are present trees, or shrubland with emergent food trees. The within the survey area and there are distribution of this habitat is largely influenced by land recent sighting records within close elevation , annual temperature and rainfall patterns, soil proximity to the survey area types and the resultant soil moisture availability and Phascolarctos cinereus Vulnera fertility. Preferred food and shelter trees are naturally (koala) ble abundant on fertile clay soils. On the western slopes of the Great Dividing Range, tablelands and plains in Queensland and New South Wales, koalas are found in sub-humid Eucalyptus-dominated forests and woodlands in riparian and non-riparian environments, and some Acacia-dominated forests and woodlands in non-riparian environments (Melzer et al. 2000).

5. Conclusions An ecological survey was required to be carried out in anticipation of proposed seismic activities being conducted across the Kainama tenements (ATP692), Queensland. Due to the negligible land disturbance associated with seismic activities (e.g. slashing only, no clearing of woody vegetation), the field surveys were limited to identifying and mapping the following environmental constraints: 1. Location and extent of Threatened Ecological Communities (TEC) (in accordance with the Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999) (EPBC Act) within the survey area 2. Location and distribution of threat-listed flora and fauna species (in accordance with the EPBC Act and Nature Conservation Act 1992 (NC Act)) within the survey area 3. Location and extent of Endangered Regional Ecosystems (ERE) (in accordance with the Regional Ecosystem Description Database (REDD)) within the survey area 4. Location and distribution Of Concern Regional Ecosystems (OCRE) (in accordance with REDD) within the survey area 5. Essential Habitat areas (as shown on supporting maps to Regulated Vegetation Maps) The Survey Area is defined Table 1 of this report. Field surveys were undertaken between 27th May and 11th and 12th July, 2016 by a small team of ecologists led by Origin Energy Senior Field Environmental Advisor Anjeanette Schimpf. Anjeanette Schimpf was approved to undertake ecological surveys by Commonwealth Department of Environment (formerly the Department of Sustainability, Environment, Water, Population and Communities) in writing on 13th September, 2012. The following is a summary of ecological and environmental values which were recorded as a result of the ecology field surveys:  No EPBC Act listed threatened ecological communities were recorded during the field survey at the Site.  One (1) EPBC Act listed threatened flora species was recorded during the field survey, this being Philotheca sporadica (Kogan wax flower) (listed as Vulnerable). Further, based on an assessment of the likelihood of occurrence and habitat features present within the survey area, one (1) additional EPBC Act listed threatened flora species was considered likely to occur within the survey area, this being Homopholis belsonii (Belson’s panic).  No EPBC Act threat-listed, no listed Migratory Species and two (2) Listed Marine Species were recorded as a result of the field surveys, these being Grallina cyanoleuca (magpie-lark) and Haliastur sphenurus (whistling kite). Additionally, based on an assessment of the likelihood of occurrence and habitat features present within the survey area, 12 threat-listed, four (4) Migratory and four (4) Listed Marine species are considered likely to occur at the site.  DNRM mapping identified a range of REs to be present within the survey area, predominantly from landzones 3, 5 and 7. Vegetation communities within the survey area were ground-truthed and the following REs were recorded  RE11.3.2 - Eucalyptus populnea woodland on alluvial plains. The biodiversity status of this vegetation community is Of Concern  RE11.3.4 - Eucalyptus tereticornis and/or Eucalyptus spp. Woodland on alluvial plains. The biodiversity status of this vegetation community is Of Concern.  RE11.3.18 - Eucalyptus populnea, Callitris glaucophylla, Allocasuarina luehmannii shrubby woodland on alluvium. The biodiversity status of this vegetation community is No Concern at Present  RE11.3.25 - Eucalyptus tereticornis or E. camaldulensis woodland fringing drainage lines. The biodiversity status of this vegetation community is Of Concern

 RE11.5.1 - Eucalyptus crebra and/or E. populnea, Callitris glaucophylla, Angophora leiocarpa, Allocasuarina luehmannii woodland on Cainozoic sand plains and/or remnant surfaces. The biodiversity status of this vegetation community is No Concern at Present  RE11.5.4 - Eucalyptus chloroclada, Callitris glaucophylla, C. endlicheri, Angophora leiocarpa woodland on Cainozoic sand plains and/or remnant surfaces. The biodiversity status of this vegetation community is No Concern at Present  RE11.7.1 - Acacia harpophylla and/or Casuarina cristata and Eucalyptus thozetiana or E. microcarpa woodland on lower scarp slopes on Cainozoic lateritic duricrust. The biodiversity status of this vegetation community is Of Concern.  RE11.7.4 - Eucalyptus decorticans and/or Eucalyptus spp., Corymbia spp., Acacia spp., Lysicarpus angustifolius woodland on Cainozoic lateritic duricrust. The biodiversity status of this vegetation community is No Concern at Present  RE11.7.5 - Shrubland on natural scalds on deeply weathered coarse-grained sedimentary rocks. The biodiversity status of this vegetation community is No Concern at Present  RE11.7.6 - Corymbia citriodora or Eucalyptus crebra woodland on Cainozoic lateritic duricrust. The biodiversity status of this vegetation community is No Concern at Present  RE11.7.7 - Eucalyptus fibrosa subsp. nubila +/- Corymbia spp. +/- Eucalyptus spp. woodland on Cainozoic lateritic duricrust. The biodiversity status of this vegetation community is No Concern at Present.  RE11.9.10 - Eucalyptus populnea open forest with a secondary tree layer of Acacia harpophylla and sometimes Casuarina cristata on fine-grained sedimentary rocks. The biodiversity status of this vegetation community is Endangered.  One (1) NC Act threat-listed flora species was recorded during the field survey, this being Philotheca sporadica (Kogan wax flower) (listed as Near Threatened). Further, based on an assessment of the likelihood of occurrence and habitat features present at the site, an additional two (2) NC Act listed threatened flora species are considered likely to occur within the survey area. Three (3) Special Least Concern flora species were recorded within the survey area, these being Cymbidium canaliculatum (black orchid), Cheilanthes sieberi (mulga fern) and Santalum lanceolatum (sandalwood).  No NC Act threat-listed fauna species were recorded during the field survey. One (1) Special Least Concern fauna species, Tachyglossus aculeatus (short-beaked echidna) was detected during the field survey. Additionally, based on an assessment of the likelihood of occurrence and habitat features present at the site, a further two (2) NC Act threat-listed fauna species are considered likely to occur within the survey area.  Three (3) species of declared pest flora under the LP Act 2002, Bryophyllum delogoense (mother- of-millions), Opuntia stricta (prickly pear) and Opuntia tomentosa (velvety tree pear) were recorded during the field survey. Opuntia species are also listed Weeds of National Significance.  Three (3) species of declared pest fauna, Sus scrofa (feral pig), Felis catus (feral cat) and Canis lupus dingo (dingo) were detected during the field survey.

It is recommended that the findings in this report are considered during detailed development planning such that disturbance to the ecological values of the site and locality may be avoided wherever practical. Where disturbance is unavoidable, impact mitigation measures are to be implemented in accordance with the approved Threatened Flora Management Plan, site environmental management plan and regulatory approval conditions.

This report is designed to assist in identifying the locations of places which may be relevant in determining obligations under the Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999. It holds mapped locations of World and National Heritage properties, Wetlands of International and National Importance, Commonwealth and State/Territory reserves, listed threatened, migratory and marine species and listed threatened ecological communities. Mapping of Commonwealth land is not complete at this stage. Maps have been collated from a range of sources at various resolutions.

Not all species listed under the EPBC Act have been mapped (see below) and therefore a report is a general guide only. Where available data supports mapping, the type of presence that can be determined from the data is indicated in general terms. People using this information in making a referral may need to consider the qualifications below and may need to seek and consider other information sources.

For threatened ecological communities where the distribution is well known, maps are derived from recovery plans, State vegetation maps, remote sensing imagery and other sources. Where threatened ecological community distributions are less well known, existing vegetation maps and point location data are used to produce indicative distribution maps.

For species where the distributions are well known, maps are digitised from sources such as recovery plans and detailed habitat studies. Where appropriate, core breeding, foraging and roosting areas are indicated under 'type of presence'. For species whose distributions are less well known, point locations are collated from government wildlife authorities, museums, and non-government organisations; bioclimatic distribution models are generated and these validated by experts. In some cases, the distribution maps are based solely on expert knowledge.

Only selected species covered by the following provisions of the EPBC Act have been mapped: - migratory and - marine The following species and ecological communities have not been mapped and do not appear in reports produced from this database: - threatened species listed as extinct or considered as vagrants - some species and ecological communities that have only recently been listed - some terrestrial species that overfly the Commonwealth marine area - migratory species that are very widespread, vagrant, or only occur in small numbers The following groups have been mapped, but may not cover the complete distribution of the species: - non-threatened seabirds which have only been mapped for recorded breeding sites - seals which have only been mapped for breeding sites near the Australian continent Such breeding sites may be important for the protection of the Commonwealth Marine environment.
