1. Background 1.1 Project description

Santos Ltd (Santos) have commissioned Aurecon Australia Pty Ltd (Aurecon) to undertake ecological investigations of proposed areas of development for the expansion of the Fairview Gas Fields. The Fairview gas fields are situated approximately 40km from Injune in southern Queensland. This area is characterised by elevated sandstone ranges including the Carnarvon and Expedition Ranges and part of the Mount Hutton and Kongabula Ranges. The Dawson River and other smaller watercourses drain this area and the vegetation is dominated by Eucalyptus and White Cypress Pine woodland, Brigalow and Semi-evergreen Vine Thicket (Eddie, 2007). Much of this area has been subjected to cattle grazing and other agricultural practices as well as previous development associated with the gas fields.

This report is specific to the proposed development areas listed below and shown in Figure 1:

• Pipeline corridor F181 (portion of) • Pipeline corridor F183 (portion of) • Pipeline corridor F184 (portion of) • Power-line easement (portion of) • OK Station 1 Water Flowline (portion of) • Well pads FV15-17 and TP-F053

These areas are collectively referred to as the ‘proposed development area’, and are located entirely within Lot 3 (RP58256). Note that the subject of this report is solely related to Lot 3 (RP58256). Where survey areas overlap additional properties, these sites will be further addressed in the report relevant to those properties/lots. 1.2 Purpose of report

The aim of this report is to provide an ecological assessment of the proposed development areas located on Lot 3 (RP58256) (Figure 1), and to identify areas and species of notable ecological or conservation value. This report does not make any recommendations regarding the development in relation to any Santos environmental authorities or other approvals.

2. Methodology 2.1 Desktop methodology

Proposed development areas have been projected on a range of maps provided by Santos. These maps include Regional Ecosystem (RE) Mapping (version 6.0; Department of Environment and Resource Management [DERM]), Environmentally Sensitive Areas (ESA) mapping, drainage mapping and aerial photography. Where available ahead of time, these resources were reviewed to determine target areas for the field inspection. It is important to note that the RE classifications used in this report are based on the ‘biodiversity status’ of the vegetation and not the ‘Vegetation Management Act 1999 (VM Act) status’ of the vegetation. 2.2 Field methodology

The proposed development areas were assessed by four (4) Aurecon ecologists (Sarah Glauert, Luke Foster, Samara Schulz and Aaron Mulcahy) on 23 June 2011. These assessments were to determine the existing vegetation communities and habitat value of the proposed clearing within the development areas as well as to verify the RE mapping as produced by DERM.

GIS environmental constraints layers (e.g. RE Mapping, ESA mapping etc) and high resolution aerial photography were uploaded onto a toughbook (C5 mobile clinical assistant CFT-001 – Motion computing), with an integrated GPS used to locate surveys areas. Handheld Garmin GPS units (GPS map 76) were also used during the field investigations. It should be noted that while efforts were made to ensure the GPS co-ordinates provided in this report are accurate, a margin of error approximately +/- 15 m is expected due to the limitations of the devices used and the recording environment.

The corridors were 100 m wide and of varying lengths, and the circular well pad areas had a radius of 175 m. Geotechnical survey locations were also assessed as part of the survey areas (a 50 m buffer zone around each survey location was assessed).

The ground-truthing of the proposed development areas included undertaking detailed flora species surveys including sampling of unknown flora, and recording all incidental fauna observations. All species known to be of conservation significance (such as endangered, vulnerable, near threatened or Type A species under the Nature Conservation Act 1992 [NC Act] or endangered, vulnerable or rare species under the Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999 [EPBC Act]) were recorded using the toughbook.

A list of flora species observed in the proposed development areas has been included in Appendix A. Incidental fauna observations are provided in the relevant sections throughout this report.

3. Ecological assessment 3.1 Corridors F181, F183, F184 and associated well pads FV15-17 and TP- F053

General

These corridors and well pads head north from the Injune-Taroom Road, then branches off to the north-west. The well pad associated with this corridor is located within a historically cleared area which is bordered by a stream order 3 watercourse. A Stream order 1watercourse is mapped within corridor F183 but the location of the mapped feature appears erroneous and no features associated with a watercourse were noted at this location.

Vegetation mapping of the area shows remnant vegetation as RE 11.3.2/11.10.11 which is classified as ‘of concern – dominant’. The corridor itself does not contain any remnant vegetation mapped under DERM RE mapping; rather it is located within the cleared areas. During recent surveys (June) the RE mapping was found to be correct.

Due to the presence of an ‘of concern’ regional ecosystem (RE 11.3.2/11.10.11), the area falls within a ‘Category C’ ESA, and as such any potential disturbance within this area must be in compliance with applicable regulatory approvals.

Floristics

Due to the historical clearing that has taken place within this corridor and adjoining well pad areas, the canopy layer of vegetation is generally lacking. Scattered regrowth species are present including Eucalyptus populnea (Poplar Box) and Eucalyptus chloroclada (Dirty Gum). Some larger mature trees are present along the creek-line on the north-eastern corner of the corridor.

The mid-storey is completely lacking within this area, possibly due to past clearing and current grazing practices. The groundcover is dominated by Pennisetum ciliare (Buffel Grass), with scattered pockets of natives including Sporobolus creber (Western Rats Tail Grass), Cymbopogon refractus (Barbwire Grass), Themeda australis (Kangaroo Grass) and Aristida vagans (Three-awned Speargrass) throughout.

No Type A restricted species were identified within these corridors.

Habitat Values

Although the corridor exhibits signs of heavy disturbance such as clearing and grazing, the presence of key habitat attributes within and surrounding the corridor, indicates that the area is of high habitat value.

Key habitat attributes present within the area include a running creek-line with large mature trees with hollows, rocky edges along the creek, an abundance of fallen timber, stags within the cleared area, and grassy tussocks.

A number of incidental fauna sightings were made during surveys either by sight, tracks or scats, these include: Emu (Dromaius novaehollandiae), Dingo (Canis lupis), Australian Magpie (Gymnorhina tibicen), Pale-headed Parrot (Platycercus adscitus), Eastern Rosellas (Platycercus eximius), Sulfur- crested Cockatoo (Cacatua galerita), Richard’s Pipit (Anthus novaeseelandiae), Feral Pig (Sus scrofa), Torresian Crow (Corvus orru), Eastern Grey Kangaroo (Macropus giganteus), Red-necked Wallaby (Macropus rufogriseus), Galah (Cacatua roseicapilla), Grey Butcher Bird (Cracticus torquatus), Pied Butcher Bird (Cracticus nigrogularis), Apostle Bird (Struthidea cinerea) and European Rabbits (Oryctolagus cuniculus).

3.2 OK Station 1 Water Flowline

General

The OK Station 1 Flowline is a single corridor extending through Lot 3 RP58256. The corridor within this Lot is 100 m wide and approximately 800 m long.

The corridor is predominantly situated within non-remnant vegetation. A small section of the corridor is within RE mapping 11.3.2/11.10.11 ‘of concern dominant’ vegetation that is associated with a ‘Category C’ ESA. All the RE mapping was confirmed during the survey in June.

The majority of the corridor occurs within agricultural land that has been historically cleared, with some areas standing remnant vegetation. The corridor intersects one (1) watercourse (stream order 3).

Floristics

The vegetation within the non-remnant areas of the corridor is open grasslands dominated by Pennisetum ciliare (Buffel Grass) with some native grasses, such as Aristida caput medusa (Curly Head Wire Grass) and Dichanthium sericeum (Queensland Blue Grass). Vegetation structure was lacking in these areas with only scattered shrubs and trees, such as Eucalyptus crebra (Narrow Leaved Ironbark), Eucalyptus tereticornis (Queensland Blue Gum).

The remnant areas of the corridor were associated with watercourses and contained riparian vegetation which was dominated by Eucalyptus populnea (Poplar Box) and Eucalyptus tereticornis (Queensland Blue Gum). There was a sparse shrub layer that included Melaluca sp. Injune and Maytenus cuninghamii (Yellow Berry Bush). The areas groundcover was dominated by native greases, forbs and sedges, such as Alternanthera denticulate (Lesser Joyweed), Fimbristylis dichotoma, Juncus usitatus and Panicum similie (Two-Coloured Panic).

No species of conservation significance under the EPBC Act or NC Act were present. A species list is provided in Appendix A.

Habitat values

The habitat value of the corridor varied depending upon the area. Within the non-remnant pasture areas the habitat value is low due to the lack of vegetation structure, the dominance of Pennisetum ciliare (Buffel Grass) and limited woody debris and rocky areas. The remnant areas within the proposed disturbance area contained high quality riparian areas and provide high quality habitat to native fauna. These areas contained a complex vegetation structure, minimal weed species, rocky areas and fissured tree bark. The habitat value is also increased due to the presence of hollow bearing trees and fallen woody debris.

Numerous bird calls were herd in the remnant areas but no fauna species of conservation significance under the EPBC Act or NC Act were observed.

4. Conclusion

Conclusion

The proposed pipelines and associated well pads in Lot 3 (RP58256) occur predominantly within a historically cleared area adjacent to a stream order 3 watercourse. A Stream order 1watercourse is mapped within corridor F183 but the location of the mapped feature appears erroneous and no features associated with a watercourse were noted at this location.

The proposed corridors occur predominantly in areas mapped as non-remnant, with a small section of the OK Station 1 Water Flowline occurring within remnant vegetation mapped as RE11.3.2/11.10.11 which is classified as ‘of concern – dominant’

No Type A restricted species were observed within the proposed development areas.

No species protected under the provisions of the EPBC Act were observed within the proposed development areas during these investigations.
