  • Piedmont Ecoregion Aquatic Habitats
    Piedmont Ecoregion Aquatic Habitats Description and Location The piedmont ecoregion extends south of Blue Ridge to the fall line near Columbia, South Carolina and from the Savannah River east to the Pee Dee River. Encompassing 24 counties and 10,788 square miles, the piedmont is the largest physiographic province in South Carolina. The piedmont is an area with gently rolling hills dissected by narrow stream and river valleys. Forests, farms and orchards Pee Dee-Piedmont EDU dominate most of the land. Elevations Santee-Piedmont EDU Savannah-Piedmont EDU range from 375 to 1,000 feet. The Piedmont Ecoregion cuts across the top of three major South Carolina drainages, the Savannah, the Santee and the Pee Dee, forming three ecobasins: the Savannah-Piedmont, Santee-Piedmont and Pee Dee-Piedmont. Savannah-Piedmont Ecobasin The Savannah River drainage originates in the mountains of North Carolina and Georgia. The Savannah River flows southeast along the border of South Carolina and Georgia through the piedmont for approximately 131 miles on its way to the Atlantic Ocean. Major tributaries to the Savannah River in the South Carolina portion of this ecobasin include the Tugaloo River, Seneca River, Chauga River, Rocky River, Little River and Stevens Creek. The ecobasin encompasses 36 watersheds and approximately 2,879 square miles. The vast majority of the land is privately owned with only 239 square miles protected by federal, state and private entities. Most of the protected land (192 square miles) occurs in Sumter National Forest. The ecobasin contains 3,328 miles of lotic habitat with 143 square miles of impoundments.

  • Introduction the Need for New Reserves
    Koala Strategy Submissions, PO Box A290, Sydney South NSW 1232, [email protected] CC. [email protected] 2nd March 2017. NPA SUBMISSION: WHOLE OF GOVERNMENT KOALA STRATEGY; SAVING OUR SPECIES DRAFT STRATEGY AND REVIEW OF STATE ENVIRONMENT PLANNING POLICY 44—KOALA HABITAT PROTECTION Introduction The National Parks Association of NSW (NPA), established in 1957, is a community-based organisation with over 20,000 supporters from rural, remote and urban areas across the state. NPA promotes nature conservation and evidence- based natural resource management. We have a particular interest in the protection of the State’s biodiversity and supporting ecological processes, both within and outside of the formal conservation reserve system. NPA has a long history of engagement with both government and non-government organisations on issues of park management. NPA appreciates the opportunity to comment on the whole of government koala strategy (the strategy), the Saving Our Species iconic koala project (the SOS project) and the Explanation of intended effect: State Environment and Planning Policy 44 (Koala Habitat Protection) (SEPP 44). Please note, NPA made a submission on SEPP 44 in late 2016 prior to the deadline being extended which we have reattached at the end of this document (Appendix 1). NPA was also consulted on the SOS programme in August 2016, which we greatly appreciated. We provided OEH with feedback on the programme at that time, which also contained an exploration of issues facing koalas, which we have reattached in Appendix 2. NPA has had significant input to the development of the Stand Up For Nature (SUFN) submission to this consultation.

  • Notes for Cyclists Mountain Bikes on the BNT
    Notes for Cyclists Mountain Bikes on the BNT Please note: This information is for those intending to take mountain bikes out on the Bicentennial National Trail and offers suggestions for cyclists to avoid those sections of the Trail unsuitable for bikes. The information provided here is of a general nature and should be read in conjunction with the Guidebooks, Guidebook updates and road maps. Cyclists should always check back on the website for the most recent information on Trail conditions. A friendly reminder that all Trail users are self reliant trekkers responsible for all your needs and the decisions you make. Just like the Trail, this information sheet is an ongoing work in progress - users of these notes, and the Trail, are invited to offer their own opinions and suggestions for updating this information. The best parts of the National Trail for walkers and trekkers with animals are the rugged sections through wilderness. The Trail has been designed to provide a balance between these rugged remote areas and easier more accessible parts along quiet roads and tracks through the countryside. For cyclists, unless you are especially masochistic, you will find it necessary to detour around the particularly difficult sections. Bypassing sections of the BNT unsuitable for bikes usually involves public roads, mostly quiet back roads, so landowner permission for access is not a problem. As the detours are generally close to the BNT, the spirit of the BNT concept is not lost. However, this has left some cyclists with the impression that the Bicentennial National Trail is much less challenging than it really is.
