Purpose and Description 1.1 Introduction This Strategic Assessment Report (SAR) has been prepared in accordance with section 6 of the agreement between The Commonwealth of Australia and the Gandangara Local Aboriginal Land Council (GLALC) for the assessment of the impacts of developing Heathcote Ridge, West Menai, NSW, under the Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999 and the agreed terms of reference included Attachment B to the agreement. The SAR describes the program and potential impacts from the Program on matters of national environmental significance (MNES) protected under the Commonwealth Environment Protection and Biodiversity Act 1999 (EPBC Act). 1.1.1 Background EPBC Act and MNES The EPBC Act is the Commonwealth Government's key piece of environmental legislation and is managed by the Department of Sustainability, Environment, Water, Population and Communities (SEWPaC).

  • Submission to Australia's Faunal Extinction Crisis Inquiry
    Supplementary to my submission of the 5th September 2018 I would appreciate it if the panel would take the following information into account most of the local information has been taken from the web site: Campbelltown Koala Research and Database.com. which is Report undertaken by Prof. Robert Close and his team over a 27 year period.. www.campbelltown research and database.com 13th August 2019 Submission to Australia’s Faunal Extinction Crisis Inquiry Patricia Durman 28th July 2019 Thank you for allowing us to submit a submission into the state of koalas in NSW, my knowledge is mainly restricted to the local koala population and I have aimed this submission to the protection of these animals, but regard all native animals including koalas as part of the ecosystem that is required to keep the planet healthy. It is unfortunate that unless the panel has the power to delay development until they have made their report and it has been accepted by the government the Campbelltown koala population will have been seriously endangered by subdivision and the installation of new roads. I have referred to the koala population as the Campbelltown population, but this, of course, refers to all koalas living in the South West region of Sydney including Sutherland. HISTORY Although there were a few extinctions of native flora and fauna once the Aboriginal people had landed in Australia 40,000 years ago, perhaps even longer in the Cape York region, it wasn’t until Europeans arrived and cleared vast areas of bushland that the extinction of native animals escalated and in only 200 years we have become the continent with the most amount of extinction in the world.

  • Heathcote Ridge - Site of State Significance Submission to NSW Department of Planning & Infrastructure Dec 2011
    Appendix A Sutherland Shire Council’s Response to: Heathcote Ridge - Site of State Significance Submission to NSW Department of Planning & Infrastructure Dec 2011 This submission includes the consideration of all issues contained in the Director General's Requirements, as well as of additional issues arising from the assessment of this proposal that are of particular concern. The structure of the following sections of the report is based on the numbering and headings system used in the Director General's Requirements. Sustainability Criteria for New Land Release 1. Assessment against the ‘Sustainability Criteria for New Land Release’ in the Metropolitan Strategy and provide justification of listing the site on the Metropolitan Development Program. When evaluated against the State’s ‘Measureable Explanation of Criteria’, the Gandangara Local Aboriginal Land council (GLALC) Heathcote Ridge proposal fails to substantially satisfy the Sustainability Criteria for New Land Release, for the reasons outlined below: Infrastructure The proposed Heathcote Ridge development does not satisfy the requirement that a new land release area must be consistent with “any relevant development strategy, subregional strategy, regional infrastructure strategy and Metropolitan Plan”. This assessment is based on West Menai‘s exclusion from the draft South Subregional Strategy (2007) as a site for residential development. (“There are no major land release areas planned in the South Subregion and most future dwelling growth will be accommodated with existing urban areas” . pg 86). More significantly, the Strategy specifically highlights West Menai’s restricted urban development potential and its capabilities as a ‘Potential Employment Area to be Investigated’. “…much of [West Menai] has environmental significance and its development could impact significantly on adjoining land and be impacted itself from activity on adjoining land such as bushfire and emissions from the waste deposit.
