1. Introduction

This report has been completed by Boobook Ecological Consultants approved by the Commonwealth Department of Sustainability, Environment, Water, Population and Communities (DSEWPaC) in writing on the 31st of March and 28th of June 2011.

The field surveys were conducted by a team of ecologists lead by Craig Eddie, approved by DSEWPaC in writing on the 31st of March 2011, Principal Ecologist for Boobook Ecological Consultants.

2. Site Context

Condabri South comprises three land parcels described individually as Lot 48 on Plan RG46, Lot 52 on Plan RG46 and Lot 2 on Plan SP179380. The total area of the property aggregation is approximately 1361 ha. It is located approximately 32km south south east of Miles and 8km east of Condamine in southern inland Queensland. The bulk of the properties lie within Province 30 (Tara Downs) and Province 32 (Inglewood Sandstone) of the Brigalow Belt Bioregion, while the extreme northwestern tip lies in Province 31 (Eastern Darling Downs). Condabri South is accessed via the Condamine - Kogan Road which borders the northern boundary of 48RG46 and 2SP179380, and Ellerslea Lane which borders the western side of 2SP179380. Condabri South lies within PL265.

Recent land uses on the property are agricultural, primarily grazing of domestic livestock with some areas formerly cropped. Some infrastructure associated with coal seam gas exploration is present on 2SP179380. The majority of native vegetation on the property has been cleared, however, small patches of remnant vegetation are present, mainly in the form of shade lines, isolated clumps and patches associated with watercourses, including Cooloomala Creek. Some advanced and young regrowth of both endangered and not of concern regional ecosystems is present. Soils on the property are predominantly grey or black cracking clays and the topography is generally flat or gently undulating clay plains with very shallow to moderately deep gilgai. Bleached loams or sands over brown, black or red mottled, yellowish brown clays occur at the southern end of the property and near minor watercourses. Some local creek alluvia is present. The nearest weather station to Condabri South is Roma. This climate consists of yearly average temperatures ranging from a maximum of 34.1 in January to a minimum of 3.9 in July. The annual rainfall of Roma was 582.5mm, with the highest rainfall occurring in February (90.3mm) and the lowest occurring in July (24.2mm).

3. Methodology

3.1 Desktop and Literature Review

Sources used to obtain information for the desktop and literature review are as follows: . Nature Conservation Act 1992 (NCA) Protected Species Lists . Environmental Protection Biodiversity and Conservation 1999 (EPBC) Protected Matters Search Tool

commercial-in-confidence Q-4500-15-RP-0022

. Department of Environment and Resource Management Environmentally Sensitive Areas Mapping . Geosciences Australia Waterways mapping . Department of Environment and Resource Management Regional Ecosystem version 6.1 digital GIS layer Data searches were conducted using a 4km buffer around the approximate centre point of the property. 3.2 Field Survey

Scouting surveys were conducted in general accordance with the BioCondition – A Condition Assessment Framework for Terrestrial Biodiversity in Queensland – Assessment Manual – Version 2.1 (BioCondition Manual) (Eyre et al, 2011) and the Methodology for Survey and Mapping of Regional Ecosystems and Vegetation Communities in Queensland (Neldner et al 2005).

3.2.1 Vegetation Community Survey

General baseline botanical surveys were undertaken to describe dominant flora and vegetation community structure throughout the survey site. Botanical surveys were consistent with the quaternary level of data collection as described in Methodology for Survey and Mapping of Regional Ecosystems and Vegetation Communities in Queensland (Neldner et al, 2005).

Vegetation community polygons have been confirmed, mapped and identified in accordance with Queensland Regional Ecosystem (Biodiversity Status) and Environmental Protection, Biodiversity and Conservation (EPBC) Threatened Ecological Community criteria. Areas of remnant vegetation have been clearly distinguished from areas of regrowth vegetation that does not satisfy remnant regional ecosystem or EPBC Threatened Ecological Community criteria.

3.2.2 Habitat Survey

Habitat surveys were conducted within each Vegetation Community Survey location within the aforementioned Vegetation Community Area. A range of habitat features, such as log abundance, hollow tree size class and abundance have been noted.

3.2.3 Threatened Flora and Fauna Survey

‘Threatened’ species are those listed under the Environment Protection Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999 and the Nature Conservation (Wildlife) Regulation 2006.

Targeted flora and fauna searches were undertaken within the vicinity of a Vegetation Community Survey/Habitat Feature plot where field ecologists determined the given area to be of sufficient potential value to a threatened species to warrant such a search.

Targeted threatened species surveys were also conducted in additional locations based on incidental field observations of high quality habitat or identification of distinct ecological

commercial-in-confidence Q-4500-15-RP-0022

features through preliminary review of mapping and other background information for the property.

3.2.4 Exotic Flora and Fauna Surveys

Environmental and declared pest (as defined by the Land Protection (Pest and Stock Route Management) Act 2002) populations were noted and abundance recorded at the time of the survey.

3.2.5 Disturbance Survey

Evidence of disturbance throughout the property was recorded for type, severity and estimated time of most recent occurrence.

Rough Frog is likely to be widespread across the property due to the abundance of gilgais (within remnants and clearings) that this species utilises for breeding and foraging. Golden- tailed Gecko is likely to be confined to any of the vegetated areas (remnant and regrowth) that contain trees and shrubs with loose bark. Turquoise Parrot is a rare visitor to the Chinchilla-Miles-Condamine area and is likely to utilise open woodlands and clearings for foraging on a transient basis. This species utilises tree hollows for nesting but is not known to nest within this part of its range. Potentially suitable habitat was recorded for an additional 14 species that are scheduled as near threatened, vulnerable or endangered under the Nature Conservation Act 1992. These are listed in Table 20 below. Table 18 Nature Conservation Act scheduled threatened fauna potentially occurring at Condabri South based on field survey results

Cane Toad, Cat, Red Fox, Brown Hare, Rabbit, Black Rat and House Mouse are expected to occur on the property but they were not detected during the field survey. Dog and Pig were recorded within the Wildnet search area surrounding the property.

4.2.5 Other Significant Flora and Fauna

Fauna of regional conservation significance recorded during the field survey included Grey- crowned Babbler (Boobook sites Q8, Q16, Q19, Q25, Q33, Q35, Q36, I35, I54, I55, I72, I102 and I112) and Speckled Warbler (Boobook sites I31, I61 and I112). These species were identified as being of regional significance within the APLNG EIS (see Volume 2 Gas Fields, Chapter 8, Terrestrial Ecology).

An active Spotted Harrier nest was located within a brigalow clump at Boobook site I54. No chicks were present at the time of the survey but the nest was being attended by adult birds.

Eucalyptus woollsiana is a favoured food tree of Koala. Although no signs of koala were noted areas containing potential food trees for this species are present at Boobook sites Q24, Q25, Q34, I58, I72, I101, I102, I104 and I106.

No significant invertebrates were recorded during the field survey; however, intensive targeted searches have not been undertaken. It is possible that the Brigalow Woodland Snail Adclarkia cameroni could occur in the brigalow-belah woodlands throughout the property, including advanced regrowth. This species is pending listing as Critically Endangered under the EPBC Act 1999.

Flora of regional significance recorded during the field survey included Yarran Acacia melvillei at Boobook site I27 (patch of young-moderately advanced regrowth) and A. omalophylla at sites Q8, Q33, I35 and I59. Both are listed as being of regional significance within APLNG EIS (see Volume 2 Gas Fields, Chapter 8, Terrestrial Ecology.

The record of Myriophyllum simulans at Boobook site I53 is only the second collection for the Darling Downs pastoral district (Herbrecs data). Several flora were recorded that are uncommon or otherwise poorly collected in the Miles-Condamine are e.g. Centrolepis exserta and Viscum whitei.

One species of Type A Restricted Plant was recorded, this being Black Orchid Cymbidium canaliculatum at Boobook sites I35 and Q16.

RE General description Description Code

11.4.3 Acacia harpophylla and/or Open-forest dominated by Acacia harpophylla and/or Casuarina cristata shrubby open Casuarina cristata. Acacia harpophylla (10-16m high) forest on Cainozoic clay plains predominates forming a fairly continuous canopy with varying densities of Casuarina cristata (14-18m high), forming part of the canopy or emerging above it. Casuarina cristata may be dominant or form pure stands particularly in the south of the bioregion (subregions 33, 36). Eucalyptus spp. such as E. orgadophila, E. populnea, E. microcarpa, Eucalyptus woollsiana, E. cambageana and E. thozetiana (on shallower soils and upper slopes) may be scattered through the canopy or occur as emergents up to 22m high. Brachychiton rupestris may also be present in places. An open to dense, tall shrub layer is present, and is dominated by Eremophila mitchellii and/or Geijera parviflora. Low shrubs are often present, occasionally forming a distinct layer dominated by species such as Carissa ovata and Alectryon diversifolius. Tree/shrub height may range from 3-8 m. Melaleuca bracteata may be present in low-lying areas. The ground layer is sparse to open, and composed of grasses and forbs. Occurs on Cainozoic clay plains with cracking clay soils which are often with a weak gilgai microrelief. The plains may be flat to gently undulating. Soils are often cracking clay which are usually deep to very deep, often self mulching, and sometimes with surface stone. Texture contrast soils and other clays may also be present in places.

11.4.10 Eucalyptus populnea or E. Woodland dominated by Eucalyptus populnea and/or E. woollsiana, Acacia harpophylla, woollsiana or sometimes E. moluccana (or the closely related Casuarina cristata open-forest to E. microcarpa) with an understorey of Acacia harpophylla or woodland on margins of Casuarina cristata.

A low shrub layer dominated by species such as Xylomelum cunninghamianum, Acacia neriifolia, Callitris endlicheri, Acacia conferta, Jacksonia scoparia, Leptospermum polygalifolium, Leucopogon muticus and Melaleuca thymifolia is often present. Occurs on Cainozoic alluvial plains with sandy soils.

11.3.27 Freshwater wetlands Freshwater wetlands. Vegetation is variable including open water with or without aquatic species and fringing sedgelands and eucalypt woodlands. Occurs in a variety of situations including lakes, billabongs, oxbows and depressions on floodplains.

11.5.1 Eucalyptus crebra, Callitris Eucalyptus crebra and/or E. populnea +/- Angophora leiocarpa +/- glaucophylla, Angophora E. woollsiana (in south of bioregion) dominate the woodland (to leiocarpa, Allocasuarina open-woodland) canopy. A low tree layer dominated by luehmannii woodland on Allocasuarina luehmannii +/- Melaleuca decora +/- Callitris Cainozoic sand plains/remnant glaucophylla +/- C. endlicheri is usually present. In some areas surfaces Allocasuarina luehmannii low woodland is the dominant layer. The ground cover is usually sparse and dominated by perennial grasses. Occurs on Cainozoic sandplains, especially outwash from weathered sandstones. Duplex soils with sandy surfaces.

11.5.20 Eucalyptus moluccana and/or Eucalyptus moluccana or E. microcarpa or E. woollsiana E. microcarpa/ E. woollsiana woodland to open-forest.

Occurs on flat to gently undulating plains formed from Cainozoic/Quaternary sediments. Soils are mainly texture contrast with sandy surfaces.

4.2.3.4 Regrowth

The majority of regrowth on Condabri South has been cleared. Small areas of young endangered regrowth (11.4.3) were observed at Boobook site Q18. More advanced patches of regrowth (11.4.3 and 11.4.10) have been retained as shade clumps at sites I34 and I57. Areas of regrowth of least concern REs dominated by Eucalyptus elegans, E. populnea, Allocasuarina luehmannii, Eremophila mitchellii, Dodonaea viscosa subsp. spatulata and/or Acacia spp. (particularly A. spectabilis) were observed (examples include sites I27, I70 and I71). Advanced regrowth of least concern REs (retained as shade clumps) was recorded at site I33.

Regrowth was observed to have value as habitat for at least one species of fauna of regional significance, this being Speckled Warbler at Boobook sites I31 and I61

commercial-in-confidence Q-4500-15-RP-0022

4.2.7 Wetland Ecosystems

Cooloomala Creek is the main watercourse and forms the southern boundary of the property. It is fringed by Queensland Blue Gum Eucalyptus tereticornis and/or River Red Gum E. camaldulensis, Rough-barked Apple Angophora floribunda woodland with a dense low tree layer dominated by canopy recruits and White Cypress Pine Callitris glaucophylla. Ephemeral waterholes were observed at Boobook sites I105 and I106. A rock wall with cavities was noted on the northern bank of Cooloomala Creek at site I106.

A minor watercourse is present at the northern end of 48RG46 and 2SP179380. This watercourse is well vegetated with remnant/old regrowth woodland on 48RG46 but is vegetated by young regrowth on 2SP179380. Two other watercourses drain into Cooloomala Creek, one of which is well vegetated on 52RG46 and extends southwestwards into 2SP179380, and the other is at the southeastern end of 52RG46.

Ephemeral swamps (palustrine wetlands) were observed at Boobook sites Q9 and I68. Under the classification of EPA (2005) these wetlands may be categorised as H1 and H2M2 respectively. The swamp at Q9 is undisturbed. A portion of the area surrounding the swamp at I68 has been modified by a dam wall but otherwise retains natural elements. A much smaller swampy depression was noted within a remnant at site I55a.

Several small dams are present. Examples include Boobook sites I100, I107 and between I53 and I54). These dams were partly vegetated around their margins; hence, habitat available for aquatic fauna and flora is limited.

Gilgais are well developed and numerous in the central part of 2SP179380 (eg. Boobook sites I169 and I97), the southwestern section of 48RG46 and the northwestern section of 52RG46 (see Figure 3). Other areas with scattered gilgais were noted at sites Q18, I34, I53 and I57. Most of the gilgaied areas are within cleared paddocks, however, examples within intact vegetation were noted at Boobook sites Q25 and I38 (in remnant) and I34 and I57 (in regrowth). See Figure 5 below for reference.

There are no ESA DERM referrable wetlands on the property.

4.2.8 Disturbance

Existing disturbances at Condabri South include substantial areas of cleared land, parts of which have been previously cultivated and cropped. The entire property has been grazed. Numerous internal vehicle tracks and fence lines are present throughout. Other infrastructure associated with grazing and cropping are present including homesteads, sheds, stock yards and dams. Most paddocks have been blade-ploughed, hence, regrowth in most paddocks is sparse. An existing high pressure gas pipeline traverses the property. There is an olive plantation at I103. Coal seam gas wells are present on 2 SP179380.

4.2.9 Sensitive Areas

As the majority of native vegetation at Condabri South has been cleared remnants and patches of advanced regrowth are important for retaining native fauna and flora habitat on the property.

The field survey demonstrated that Condabri South contains locally significant vegetated and non-remnant areas having value to flora and fauna, which include but are not limited to, the following:

• the entire area of vegetation fringing Cooloomala Creek (refer to Figure 4); • an exposed rock wall at Boobook site I106 and waterholes in Cooloomala Creek at Boobook sites I105 and I106; • vegetated areas associated with other watercourses on the properties (refer to section 4.2.4 and Figure 4); • brigalow and/or belah patches and clumps retained on the property (refer to Figure 4); • areas of concentrated gilgais which have been demonstrated to contain populations of at least one species of near threatened plant Eleocharis blakeana (refer to Figure 2 and 5); • ephemeral swamps at Q9 and I68 which have been demonstrated to contain populations of at least one species of near threatened plant Eleocharis blakeana (refer to Figure 2 and 5); • the population of the endangered Red-soil Woolly Wrinklewort Rutidosis lanata at Boobook site I101 (refer to Figure 2).

5. Recommendations

• Where possible infrastructure should be sited in existing clearings and avoid clearing of remnant vegetation. • Where there is no reasonable alternative to siting proposed infrastructure in remnant vegetation, clearing should proceed in accordance with relevant statutory conditions. • Clearing of vegetation along watercourses should be avoided where possible, and existing crossings should be utilised for positioning of linear infrastructure. Where

unavoidable, clearing or other disturbances should be minimised and limited to that which is in accordance with applicable regulatory approvals. Disturbance should especially avoid habitat features of note at Cooloomala Creek e.g. rock walls and waterholes at Boobook sites I105 and I106; • Populations of Red-soil Woolly Wrinklewort Rutidosis lanata at Boobook site I101 should be avoided. • Populations of Blake’s Spike-rush Eleocharis blakeana at Boobook sites I53 and I68A should be avoided, where possible. • Disturbance to areas with concentrated gilgais should be minimised where possible as these provide confirmed habitat for at least one species of least concern flora Eleocharis blakeana) and potentially several species of scheduled threatened fauna including Grey Snake and Rough Frog • Disturbance to ephemeral swamps at Q9 and I68 should be avoided. • The Spotted Harrier nest at Boobook site I54 should be avoided. Any construction activities that are required within 100m of this nest should be undertaken when the nest is not occupied. • A fauna spotter should be engaged prior to and during construction to identify potential habitat features of significance to fauna (e.g. large hollow logs and hollow trees) including within existing clearings. • Where practicable, clearing of Type A Restricted Plants should be avoided.

This part of the report summarises the matters of national environmental significance that may occur in, or may relate to, the area you nominated. Further information is available in the detail part of the report, which can be accessed by scrolling or following the links below. If you are proposing to undertake an activity that may have a significant impact on one or more matters of national environmental significance then you should consider the Administrative Guidelines on Significance - see http://www.environment.gov.au/epbc/assessmentsapprovals/guidelines/index.html. World Heritage Properties: None National Heritage Places: None Wetlands of International None Significance (Ramsar Wetlands): Great Barrier Reef Marine None Park: Commonwealth Marine Areas:None Threatened Ecological 3 Communitites: Threatened Species: 9 Migratory Species: 11 Other Matters Protected by the EPBC Act

This part of the report summarises other matters protected under the Act that may relate to the area you nominated. Approval may be required for a proposed activity that significantly affects the environment on Commonwealth land, when the action is outside the Commonwealth land, or the environment anywhere when the action is taken on Commonwealth land. Approval may also be required for the Commonwealth or Commonwealth agencies proposing to take an action that is likely to have a significant impact on the environment anywhere. The EPBC Act protects the environment on Commonwealth land, the environment from the actions taken on Commonwealth land, and the environment from actions taken by Commonwealth agencies. As heritage values of a place are part of the 'environment', these aspects of the EPBC Act protect the Commonwealth Heritage values of a Commonwealth Heritage place and the heritage values of a place on the Register of the National Estate. Information on the new heritage laws can be found at http://www.environment.gov.au/heritage/index.html Please note that the current dataset on Commonwealth land is not complete. Further information on Commonwealth land would need to be obtained from relevant sources including Commonwealth agencies, local agencies, and land tenure maps.

A permit may be required for activities in or on a Commonwealth area that may affect a member of a listed threatened species or ecological community, a member of a listed migratory species, whales and other cetaceans, or a member of a listed marine species. Information on EPBC Act permit requirements and application forms can be found at http://www.environment.gov.au/epbc/permits/index.html.

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 Heritage and Register of National Estate properties, Wetlands of International 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. Coordinates
