Information 1 PURPOSE The purpose of this document is to present a Rehabilitation and Offset Management Plan (ROMP) in compliance with Condition 39 of the Anglo Coal (Drayton Management) Pty Limited (Drayton) Project Approval (PA) 06_0202 (2008). Preparation of the original ROMP was undertaken by Cumberland Ecology with the approval of Department of Planning and Infrastructure (DoPI). The current ROMP has subsequently been updated by the operation in accordance with condition 41A PA 06_0202 (MOD2 2012) and the Anglo American Met Coal Rehabilitation Strategy Guideline. This ROMP is a comprehensive plan that sets out provisions for the rehabilitation and conservation management of offset and rehabilitation works for Drayton mine for the short, medium and long term. The ROMP sets out a 3-year plan for rehabilitation required by the Anglo American Met Coal Rehabilitation Strategy Guideline. The ROMP meets conditions 39, 39A and 41A of the PA 06_0202 (MOD2 2012), and includes: Detailed description of the land and vegetation for offset and rehabilitation areas; Maps of current offsets and of proposed habitat linkages; Prescriptions for rehabilitation and conservation management; A proposed schedule for works over the next three years; Key performance indicators and completion criteria; and Monitoring and maintenance prescriptions. The objectives of the ROMP are to: Describe the extent and management of areas

This list has been produced by the Department of Sustainability, Environment, Water, Population and Communities (SEWPC) for the Natural Resource Management Spatial Information System. The list was produced using the AustralianAustralian Natural Natural Heritage Heritage Assessment Assessment Tool Tool (ANHAT), which analyses data from a range of plant and animal surveys and collections from across Australia to automatically generate a report for each NRM region. Data sources (Appendix 2) include national and state herbaria, museums, state governments, CSIRO, Birds Australia and a range of surveys conducted by or for DEWHA. For each family of plant and animal covered by ANHAT (Appendix 1), this document gives the number of species in the country and how many of them are found in the region. It also identifies species listed as Vulnerable, Critically Endangered, Endangered or Conservation Dependent under the EPBC Act. A biodiversity summary for this region is also available. For more information please see: www.environment.gov.au/heritage/anhat/index.html Limitations • ANHAT currently contains information on the distribution of over 30,000 Australian taxa. This includes all mammals, birds, reptiles, frogs and fish, 137 families of vascular plants (over 15,000 species) and a range of invertebrate groups. Groups notnot yet yet covered covered in inANHAT ANHAT are notnot included included in in the the list. list. • The data used come from authoritative sources, but they are not perfect.

Their descriptions provide us with the earliest written accounts of the appearance of these areas before European-imposed stock grazing, vegetation clearance and altered fire regimes transformed these landscapes.
