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. i ACKNOWLEDGE MENTS The task of preparing the Draft Regional Plan was made easier by following closely the format structure of regional plans produced in 1987 for the three CALM forest regions. Input and advice on the draft and final plans was obtained from throughout the Department and the controlling bodies, in particular: · staff of the South Coast Region in Albany and Esperance; · Various branches within the Department of Conservation and Land Management; · the CALM Corporate Executive; · the National Parks and Nature Conservation Authority and the Lands and Forest Commission Further advice was received from all ten Local Government Authorities within the Region: · Shire of Denmark · Town of Albany (in particular Town Planner, Nic Ayton) · Shire of Albany (in particular Shire Engineer, John Hull) · Shire of Plantagenet (in particular Councillor Jack Adams) · Shire of Cranbrook · Shire of Gnowangerup · Shire of Jeffamungup (in particular Councillor Ken Thomas and Councillor Pam Forbes) · Shire of Ravensthorpe (in particular Councillor Alan Carmichael) · Shire of Esperance (in particular members of Council Works Committee) · Shire of Dundas (in particular Councillor Peter Brown of Arubiddy Station). The final Regional Plan has benefited from the many comments received from those organisations and individuals who prepared submissions on the Draft Plan. Their time and attention to detail is greatly appreciated. Also appreciated is the patience and perseverance of the typists who worked so cheerfully on the preparation of the draft and final documents. Thanks to Christina Pollard, Caroline Budd, Marian Hickson, Ann Burchell and Debbie Bowra of CALM and to those who undertook parts of this work on a contract basis. ii NOMENCLATURE Inclusion of a name in this publication does not imply its approval by the relevant nomenclature authority. OBJECTIVES The objectives of this plan are: • To describe the land and wildlife resources managed by CALM in the South Coast Region. • To present a land use plan for land managed by CALM in the Region. • To outline policies and management guidelines on which day-to-day management of land, wildlife and resources in the Region is based. • To provide a framework for protection of native flora from plant disease. • To identify representative areas of land and seek their inclusion in the conservation estate. • To provide for public involvement in land-use planning and management by CALM. • To recognise that recreational opportunities on land managed by CALM should, where possible, be integrated with the opportunities existing on nearby land which is not managed by CALM. • To provide a planning and management framework for CALM responsibilities in the Region, upon which detailed operational plans can be based, and into which policy changes or research findings can be readily incorporated. The time frame for this Regional Plan is ten years, although review and restatement of some policies may be necessary during this period. iii CONTENTS PREFACE ___________________________________________________________________ i ACKNOWLEDGE MENTS _____________________________________________________ii NOMENCLATURE___________________________________________________________ iii OBJECTIVES _______________________________________________________________ iii CONTENTS_________________________________________________________________ iv PART A.
