Please ensure you read the Condingup Water Reserve drinking water source protection review (2017, WRP no.164) alongside the 2008 plan to obtain all of the information about this drinking water source. The 2017 review considers changes that have occurred in and around the Condingup Water Reserve since the completion of the 2008 Condingup Water Reserve drinking water source protection plan. Additional recommendations have been prepared to ensure the ongoing protection of this public drinking water source area: amending the reduced boundary under the Country Areas Water Supply Act 1947 (WA) priority areas have been amended to reflect the zoning in the current local planning scheme and existing land uses potential expansion to the north and north-west is proposed to be investigated.

  • Biological Survey Part 2.Pdf
    LEVEL 1 BIOLOGICAL ASSESSMENT OF RAVENSTHORPE GOLD PROJECT, WESTERN AUSTRALIA Page | 101 home ranges may overlap, there tends to be a smaller non-overlapping ‘core’ area defined by den locations. Core areas are approximately 4 km2 and 0.9 km2 for males and females, respectively (Serena & Soderquist, 1989). Females tend to be territorial, although some areas may be shared by a mother and her adult daughter (Serena & Soderquist, 1989). Male core areas are much larger and overlap broadly with other males as well as females. Both sexes occur at similar densities in the Jarrah forest. Home range size may be smaller in areas where foxes are effectively controlled, and where Chuditch population densities are higher (DEC, 2012b; Mathew, 1996). Chuditch are opportunistic feeders, foraging primarily on the ground at night. In the forest, insects and other large invertebrates comprise the bulk of their diet, though some mammals, birds and lizards are also included (DEC, 2012b; Serena et al., 1991). The Chuditch is primarily a nocturnal species, they may be diurnally active during the breeding season (April to July) or when cold, wet weather restricts nocturnal foraging (DEC, 2012b). The average life span of an established adult is two years, and wild Chuditch generally don’t live past four years (Soderquist, 1988). Factors contributing to Chuditch mortality include: ▪ Motor vehicle strike (Chuditch commonly forage along dirt roads and tracks making them more susceptible to this); ▪ Illegal shooting near roads; ▪ Predation by foxes, raptors and feral cats; ▪ Injury in rabbit traps; and ▪ Natural accidents and disease. The Chuditch has been recorded on camera within the Project Area during the two fauna surveys conducted by APM in 2016 and 2017.

  • South Coast Region Regional Management Plan
    SOUTH COAST REGION REGIONAL MANAGEMENT PLAN 1992 - 2002 MANAGEMENT PLAN NO. 24 Department of Conservation and Land Management for the National Parks and Nature Conservation Authority and the Lands and Forest Commission Western Australia PREFACE Regional management plans are prepared by the Department of Conservation and Land Management on behalf of the Lands and Forest Commission and the National Parks and Nature Conservation Authority. These two bodies submit the plans for final approval and modification, if required, by the Minister for the Environment. Regional plans are to be prepared for each of the 10 regions administered by the Department of Conservation and Land Management (CALM). This plan for the South Coast Region covers all lands and waters in the Region vested under the CALM Act, together with wildlife responsibilities included in the Wildlife Conservation Act. In addition to the Regional Plan, more detailed management plans will be prepared for certain critical management issues, (the most serious of which is the spread of dieback disease in the Region); particular high value or high conflict areas, (such as some national parks); or for certain exploited or endangered species, (such as kangaroos and the Noisy Scrub-bird). These plans will provide more detailed information and guidance for management staff. The time frame for this Regional Plan is ten years, although review and restatement of some policies may be necessary during this period. Implementation will take place progressively over this period and there will be continuing opportunity for public comment. This management plan was submitted by the Department of Conservation and Land Management and adopted by the Lands and Forest Commission on 12 June 1991 and the National Parks and Nature Conservation Authority on 19 July 1991 and approved by the Minister for the Environment on 23 December 1991.

    Home Home: National Parks: Previous Parks of the Month: Cape Arid National Park About New Park of the Month - February 1999 Latest Bookshop Cape Arid National Park Forest National Cape Arid National Park Tourism and Landscope For Schools Science Plants & search Mailbox Cape Arid National Park is a large (279 832 hectares) and exceptionally scenic park. With more than 160 bird species, it is an important park for the conservation of birds in Western Australia, and harbours a number of restricted and threatened species, as well as some interesting inland birds. The park lies at the eastern extremity of the South-Western botanical province and overlaps the boundary of the Eremaean botanical province (the arid zone). Therefore, as well as including beaches and the Thomas River and estuary, it also includes south- western and more arid vegetation types, providing a broad array of bird habitats. Near the coast, these include banksia woodlands, swamp yate (Eucalyptus occidentalis) woodlands, and heaths, some with emergent banksias or eucalypts, depending on the soil type. Further inland, there are extensive areas of mallee of various types and semi-arid eucalypt woodlands. There are also small areas of mixed woodlands and shrublands around granite rocks and the peaks of the Russell Range, including Mount Ragged. Cape Arid National Park, therefore, heathland flora includes a diverse array of bird species. It is the eastern limit of distribution in Western Australia for ten species, including the ground parrot, scarlet robin, western spinebill and red-eared firetail. Several species that prefer drier country are found in the northern part of the park, but not in the southern parts.

  • Western Ground Parrot Pezoporus Wallicus Flaviventris
    Threatened Species Strategy – Year 3 Priority Species Scorecard (2018) Western Ground Parrot Pezoporus wallicus flaviventris Key Findings Western Ground Parrots are currently known from only two locations in south-western WA. Initial declines caused by habitat loss and degradation are now exacerbated by higher fire frequencies, predation from introduced carnivores and sustained reductions in rainfall. Recovery actions have averted extinction through protecting wild populations from fire and introduced predators, however, this species’ limited numbers and the vulnerability of their small area of occupied habitat to fire is challenging and the outlook is perilous. Photo: Abby Berryman Significant trajectory change from 2005-15 to 2015-18? No, ongoing decline Priority future actions • Ongoing effective cat and fox control • Ongoing phytophthora quarantine • Sucessful captive breeding and reintroduction to previously occupied areas Full assessment information Background information 2018 population trajectory assessment 1. Conservation status and taxonomy 8. Expert elicitation for population trends 2. Conservation history and prospects 9. Immediate priorities from 2019 3. Past and current trends 10. Contributors 4.

Measuring progress towards conservation The primary purpose of this scorecard is to assess progress against the year three targets outlined in the Australian Government’s Threatened Species Strategy, including estimating the change in population trajectory of 20 bird species. It has been prepared by experts from the National Environmental Science Program’s Threatened Species Recovery Hub, with input from a number of taxon experts, a range of stakeholders and staff from the Office of the Threatened Species Commissioner, for the information of the Australian Government and is non-statutory.
