CRACC Capability Statement Creek Rescue and Catchment Care CAPABILITY STATEMENT Philosophy We believe humans can and should sustainably coexist with wildlife refuge-corridors along waterways. We believe nature- friendly and sustainable human lifestyles are key elements for human health and happiness. We value clean water, clean air and natural areas where nature recreation is an essential part of life. We believe restoring native habitat is the best way to ensure resilient, healthy ecosystems. Business Details Creek Rescue and Catchment Care (CRACC) is a private business with professionals skilled in rehabilitating and restoring habitats in catchments by controlling erosion, PHOTO: ROBERT WHYTE improving vegetation health, removing weeds and replanting with locally-native species.

Creek Rescue and Catchment Care Capability Statement 1 History CRACC was created as a trading name for Robert Whyte to pursue commercial bush revegetation activities as part of the funded Ithaca Intact project in 2011. CRACC soon found a demand for other commercial restoration work in the Enoggera catchment and elsewhere. In 2012 private works occurred on land in Bardon, The Gap, Fig Tree Pocket, Taringa, Ashgrove, Red Hill, Toowong and Pencil Creek, Sunshine Coast. Also in 2012 CRACC began work on a federally-funded project spanning six years to attempt eradication of Mother-of- Millions Bryophyllum delgoense at Myall Park Botanic Gardens. Initial surveys have been carried out and several treatment methods will be trialed over the next few years to determine MYALL PARK BOTANIC GARDEN PHOTO: ROBERT WHYTE the most effective and least environmentally-dangerous method. “…in 2012 CRACC began work on a major project to attempt eradication Workplace health & safety, risk management of Mother-of-Millions at Myall Park We place the greatest emphasis on avoiding harm to our Botanic Gardens, Western Darling personnel and the public by scrupulous attention to health and safety issues.

Its natural integrity, with large areas unaffected by logging, contains a range of endangered and of concern communities, including significant examples of notophyll vine forests along upper catchment creek lines, and habitat for rare and threatened plants and birds. Maintenance of the aquatic ecosystems to protect threatened or endemic species including the giant barred frog, cascade tree frog, tusked frog, the giant spiny crayfish and the rainforest crayfish will be a priority. The park will provide a high quality water catchment and scenic backdrop to the rapidly developing Sunshine Coast hinterland, Caboolture and Kilcoy. Visitors can enjoy an accessible, regenerating natural area for nature-based recreation opportunities, including sustainable motorised recreation. Conservation purpose Bellthorpe National Park was gazetted in 2010. It was originally Bellthorpe State Forest prior to its transfer to Bellthorpe Forest Reserve 1 and 2 under the South East Queensland Forests Agreement (SEQFA) in 2003.

  • The Vegetation of Granitic Outcrop Communities on the New England Batholith of Eastern Australia
    547 The vegetation of granitic outcrop communities on the New England Batholith of eastern Australia John T. Hunter and Peter J. Clarke Hunter, John T. and Clarke, Peter J. (Division of Botany, University of New England, Armidale, NSW 2350) 1998. The vegetation of granitic outcrop communities on the New England Batholith of eastern Australia. Cunninghamia 5 (3): 547–618. The vegetation of 22 areas of granitic outcrops on the New England Batholith has been surveyed using semi-quantitative quadrat sampling. In total 399 0.1 ha quadrats were placed on 216 outcrops. Twenty-eight plant communities in nine major groups and an additional unsurveyed community are circumscribed. A high number of nationally rare or threatened taxa, many of which are restricted to outcrop areas, have been found in these communities along with many taxa of special note. Previous studies have over-emphasised structure which can vary considerably with negligible floristic change. Suggestions are made on potential areas for reservation. Introduction Studies concentrating on the vegetation of granitic outcrops have been undertaken throughout the world (e.g. Whitehouse 1933; Oosting & Anderson 1937; McVaugh 1943; Keever et al. 1951; Keever 1957; Hambler 1964; Murdy et al. 1970; Sharitz & McCormick 1973; Rundel 1975; Shure & Fagsdale 1977; Wyatt 1977; Phillips 1981; Phillips 1982; Wyatt 1981; Baskin & Baskin 1982; Walters 1982; Burbanck & Phillips 1983; Wyatt 1984a, b; Uno & Collins 1987; Baskin & Baskin 1988; Houle & Phillips 1988; Houle & Phillips 1989a, b; Houle 1990; Porembski et al. 1994; Ibisch et al. 1995; Porembski 1995; Porembski et al. 1996).

    Office of the Inspector-General Emergency Management GPO Box 1425, Mail Cluster 15.7 BRISBANE, QLD 4001 [email protected] I agree to my submission being treated as outlined in the “Guide to providing submissions” on the IGEM website. Dear Office of the Inspector-General Emergency Management Review Team, Thank you for the opportunity to comment on the 2018 Queensland Bushfires Review. This submission is made on behalf of the Queensland Conservation Council Inc. (QCC). QCC was established in 1969 and is the peak environment conservation organisation in Queensland, with some 50-member groups including ten regional councils, as well as thousands of supporters. We note that the review is focused on key preparedness and response elements for both bushfires and hot weather events, with scope to reflect on the heatwaves in Far North Queensland in November 2018. QCC recognises the tragedy of recent extreme weather events, with loss of life, extensive property damage and the loss of areas of the state’s natural heritage that will take hundreds of years to recover. The cumulative impacts of climate change, including unprecedented extreme temperatures and increased variability in rainfall that have led to the warming and drying of previously humid, subtropical areas1. Further information on this issue can be found in the Climate Council’s recent report Escalating Queensland Bushfire Threat: ​ Interim conclusions and Be prepared: Climate Change and the Queensland Bushfire threat. ​ ​ ​ The impacts of climate change have destabilised Queensland’s historically fire resilient rainforests such as those in the Eungella National Park and Deepwater National Park and led to the catastrophic fire conditions experienced.
