Other maps included with this plan are locality, forest type and habitat quality class (SFO and indicative). Description of Proposal Harvesting of native forest (a) Integrated Harvesting of Native Forest: Mixed-age stands dominated by a commercially mature overstorey will be harvested to create regeneration opportunities through integrated harvesting of sawlogs and pulpwood with the retention of trees for future sawlogs, fauna habitat, seed trees, visual maintenance and soil and water protection. (b) Thinning of Early Mature Native Forest: Early Mature stands originating from past logging activities and wildfire events will be mechanically thinned under site specific silvicultural regimes aimed at retaining the highest quality future sawlogs. Thinning reduces the number of competing stems in a stand and concentrates the growth potential onto the remaining crop trees. This process will maintain the uniform age structure that characterises regrowth forests. This operation will be licensed under the EPL with notification sent to the regulatory authorities as per clause 23 of IFOA. Attachment 1: Site Safety Plan prescribes safety requirements and Medical Emergency Evacuation Plan for this harvesting operation. Attachment 2: Roading plan prescribes roading requirements for this harvesting operation. Attachment 3: Burning Plan prescribes burning requirements for this harvesting operation. Post-harvest burning should be confined as far as practicable to the Net Harvest Area. Site specific burning exclusions associated with other tenures, regrowth patches, and exclusions (flora, fauna, cultural heritage and other exclusion zones) are explained within the relevant sections of this harvest plan, in the critical boundaries section of the burning plan and indicated on the HPOM and BOM. HP_ED_2459_11 24-10-12 1 Southern Region – Compartment 2459, Tantawangalo State Forest, Eden Management Area The BOM and critical boundaries section of the burning plan also considers exclusion zones in compartments surrounding the planned compartment. If the post-log burn escapes the containment lines, the burn supervisor should use this information to assess if it is necessary to extinguish the fire or if it is acceptable to allow fire to burn out to a secondary control line. During the planning stage the location and type of control lines required to contain fire within the nha are considered and listed in the control lines section of the burn plan. Snig track patterns should be designed to double as bare earth control lines for each of the proposed control lines specified in the burn plan and for any other critical boundaries identified during the operation (e.g. nest exclusions, regrowth patches). Where this is not practical, the Contract Coordinator is to assess the need for a bare earth break to be constructed close to harvesting exclusion boundaries and seek advice and approval from the Operations Team Leader for the additional earth works. The SFO must record the following information in the burn plan and prior to burning use this information and any other relevant information from the SFO notes to brief the burning supervisor: · Any new critical boundaries identified during the operation, · If works required for existing and proposed control lines were carried out, · If proposed control lines were deemed to be unsuitable (e.g. a proposed new road did not get constructed or where a mapped drainage line didn’t occur to the full length as mapped), · If proposed control lines are no longer required (e.g.
