FMZ 3B (Catchment) – The PA is not required to mark this boundary. Cultural Heritage Surveys have been conducted. No sites were identified. If any potential heritage sites are identified they should be recorded on FCMapApp, and the ACHO notified immediately. A 20m interim buffer must be observed pending further investigation. Haulage North via 63 Logging Road, Back Creek Road then north or south on Batlow- Tumbarumba Road. OR North west on Hardy’s Road, Bullongra Road, Bago Forest Way, Kopsens Road and then north or south on Batlow-Tumbarumba Road. Community Notifications - All relevant notifications have been conducted. A notification list for FCNSW staff is available from the planner. Apiary Ranges – 2 apiary ranges are occupied. Contact Name Site # Contact I I I I Bee Permit holders must be contacted by the PA at least two weeks prior to use of any log dumps that are occupied by bee hives. Infrastructure Existing Fire Trails - Roads used for haulage should be left in a trafficable condition, free of harvesting debris and any installed rollovers must be trafficable. Traffic Control Plan – The crew is responsible for road closures when harvesting 2 tree lengths of any public use forest road.

All harvesting machinery, equipment and vehicles that come into contact with the weed must be inspected prior to leaving the compartment and cleaned of vegetative material. Also refer to special conditions in Regeneration Risk and Mitigation section below. Control Lines for Post Log Existing compartment roads will act as control lines Burning The PA must liaise with the harvesting crew to construct any additional control lines during harvesting. Any new tracks constructed for use as control lines must comply with SOP 8. 4. Harvesting Conditions Silviculture Type Harvesting Objectives and Stand Condition Shelterwood The harvest area is predominately mature Alpine Ash in predominately even- aged stands. The objective is to create canopy openings and ensure mechanical Entire harvest area disturbance creates a suitable seed bed for regeneration. (FMZ 3B & 4) The objectives will be achieved by harvesting the compartment using a 2 stage shelterwood system. The 1st stage will involve removing merchantable trees throughout the compartment down to the minimum average retained BA of 10m2. The operator will select trees containing sawlog for retention to make up the 10m2 BA so as to ensure economic viability of the subsequent operation. Additional well-formed seed trees should be retained if required to ensure adequate regeneration. The 2nd stage will involve removal of the retained sawlog trees (shelterwood) and will be carried out approximately 5-10 years after the initial harvest. BA Monitoring The PA must conduct Basal Area monitoring as per CIFOA Protocol 7 in areas treated with the Shelterwood harvesting system. The minimum BA limits are shown below. Regeneration Requirements These forests generally comprise of non-lignotuberous eucalypt species that regenerate primarily from seed. Successful regeneration requires sufficient canopy removal, a good seed bed that is free from grass/shrub competition and adequate seed stock.

  • Pterostylis Foliata Hook.F
    NSW SCIENTIFIC COMMITTEE Preliminary Determination The Scientific Committee, established by the Threatened Species Conservation Act 1995 (the Act), has made a Preliminary Determination to support a proposal to list the terrestrial orchid Pterostylis foliata Hook.f. as a VULNERABLE SPECIES in Part 1 of Schedule 2 of the Act. Listing of Vulnerable species is provided for by Part 2 of the Act. The Scientific Committee has found that: 1. Pterostylis foliata Hook.f. (family Orchidaceae) is described as: “Terrestrial herb. Leaves 3–6, scattered on the basal part of the stem, oblong to ovate or elliptic, 2–5 cm long, 8–16 mm wide, margins crisped or wavy; sessile. Scape to 30 cm high; stem smooth. Flower c. 2 cm long, dark green and white with brown in the galea, erect. Apex of galea obliquely erect, flat or slightly decurved. Lateral sepals tightly embracing the galea; sinus broadly to deeply V-shaped when viewed from the front, protruding in a shallow curve when viewed from the side; free points linear-tapered, c. 15 mm long, erect, divergent. Petals narrow, subacute. Labellum oblong, 9–12 mm long, c. 3 mm wide, brown, obtuse, distal third protruding from the sinus in the set position.” (PlantNET, 2015). 2. There is the possibility that more than one species are included under the name Pterostylis foliata as several forms are easily recognised (Bishop 2000). Populations attributed to this species do not form a monophyletic group in the molecular phylogeny presented by Clements et al. (2011) however this study was based on a limited number of samples, none of which was from New South Wales (NSW).

  • Flowering Times of Tasmanian Orchids: a Practical Guide for Field Botanists
    Flowering Times of Tasmanian Orchids: A Practical Guide for Field Botanists Mark Wapstra (Environmental Consulting Options Tasmania, ECOtas) 4th Edition, July 2018 Flowering Times of Tasmanian Orchids: A Practical Guide for Field Botanists 4th Edition (July 2018) MARK WAPSTRA Flowering Times of Tasmanian Orchids: A Practical Guide for Field Botanists FOREWORD TO FIRST EDITION (2008) This document fills a significant gap in the Tasmanian orchid literature. Given the inherent difficulties in locating and surveying orchids in their natural habitat, an accurate guide to their flowering times will be an invaluable tool to field botanists, consultants and orchid enthusiasts alike. Flowering Times of Tasmanian Orchids: A Practical Guide for Field Botanists has been developed by Tasmania’s leading orchid experts, drawing collectively on many decades of field experience. The result is the most comprehensive State reference on orchid flowering available. By virtue of its ease of use, accessibility and identification of accurate windows for locating our often-cryptic orchids, it will actually assist in conservation by enabling land managers and consultants to more easily comply with the survey requirements of a range of land-use planning processes. The use of this guide will enhance efforts to locate new populations and increase our understanding of the distribution of orchid species. The Threatened Species Section commends this guide and strongly recommends its use as a reference whenever surveys for orchids are undertaken.
