  • Lancelin to Cervantes Coastal Road
    Lancelin to Cervantes Coastal Road Main Roads Western Australia Report and recommendations of the Environmental Protection Authority Environmental Protection Authority Perth, Western Australia Bulletin 1053 July 2002 ISBN. 0 7307 6687 X ISSN. 1030 - 0120 Assessment No. 1282 Summary and recommendations Main Roads Western Australia (MRWA) proposes to develop a coastal road between Lancelin and Cervantes (Figure 1). The single carriageway sealed road represents the final stage of the Perth to Dongara coastal route, to be known as Indian Ocean Drive. The coastal road is intended to provide an alternative route for tourist traffic, separate from the high-speed freight traffic on the Brand Highway. This report provides the Environmental Protection Authority’s (EPA’s) advice and recommendations to the Minister for the Environment and Heritage on the environmental factors relevant to the proposal. Section 44 of the Environmental Protection Act 1986 requires the EPA to report to the Minister for the Environment on the environmental factors relevant to the proposal and on the conditions and procedures to which the proposal should be subject, if implemented. In addition, the EPA may make recommendations as it sees fit. Relevant environmental factors The EPA decided that the following environmental factors relevant to the proposal required detailed evaluation in the report: (a) Vegetation and conservation of biodiversity – the effects of construction and ongoing maintenance of the road on local and regional vegetation, and the consequential effects on biodiversity, both within the conservation estate and elsewhere along the road corridor; (b) Conservation estate - loss of area and fragmentation effects; and (c) Groundwater quality - protection of Lancelin’s drinking water supply.
