  • Important Information
    Important information The Walpole Weir and Butler’s Creek Dam catchment areas drinking water source protection plan (2007, WRP no. 58) was reviewed in 2016. Please ensure you also read the Walpole Weir Catchment Area drinking water source protection review (2016, WRP no.153) alongside the 2007 plan to obtain all of the information about this drinking water source. The 2016 review considers changes that have occurred in and around the Walpole Weir Catchment Area since the completion of the 2007 plan. Additional recommendations have been prepared to ensure the ongoing protection of this public drinking water source area: • including the Swann Road bores and protecting them with wellhead protection zones • reflecting new land ownership by Department of Water and Water Corporation, and new priority 1 (P1) areas • flagging the need for the Water Corporation to investigate alternative water sources. You can find the 2016 Walpole Weir Catchment Area drinking water source protection review at www.water.wa.gov.au > publications or by contacting the Department of Water on +61 8 6364 7600 or [email protected].

  • Interim Recovery Plan No. 370
    Interim Recovery Plan No. 370 Montane Heath and Thicket of the South West Botanical Province, above approximately 900 m above sea level (Eastern Stirling Range Montane Heath and Thicket Community) 2016-2021 October 2016 1 Foreword Interim Recovery Plans (IRPs) are developed within the framework laid down in Department of Parks and Wildlife Policy Statement No. 35 (DPaW 2015a) and Department of Parks and Wildlife Corporate Guideline No. 35 (DPaW 2015b). This Interim Recovery Plan replaces plan number 52 ‘Montane Heath and Thicket of the South West Botanical Province, above approximately 900 m above sea level (Eastern Stirling Range Montane Heath and Thicket Community) 1999-2001’ by S. Barrett. IRPs outline the recovery actions that are required to urgently address the threatening processes most affecting the ongoing survival of threatened taxa or ecological communities, and begin the recovery process. The department is committed to ensuring that threatened ecological communities are conserved through the preparation and implementation of Recovery Plans or Interim Recovery Plans and by ensuring that conservation action commences as soon as possible and always within one year of endorsement of that rank by the department’s Director of Science and Conservation. This IRP will operate from 4 December 2016 but will remain in force until withdrawn or replaced. It is intended that, if the ecological community is still listed as Threatened after five years, this Interim Recovery Plan will be replaced or updated. This IRP was approved by the Director of Science and Conservation on 4 December 2016. The provision of funds identified in this IRP is dependent on budgetary and other constraints affecting the department, as well as the need to address other priorities.
