INTRODUCTION COOE Pty Ltd was commissioned by Wallbridge Gilbert Aztec (WGA) to conduct a native vegetation clearance assessment, on behalf of the City of Playford, and to assess the proposed clearance envelopes against the Clearance Requirements of the Native Vegetation Act 1991 and Native Vegetation Regulations 2017. WGA has been engaged by the City of Playford to undertake the detailed design and documentation of upgrades to Bassnet Road (between Sambell Road and Humbug Scrub Road) (Appendix A) in the suburb of Humbug Scrub. The proposed native vegetation clearance is required as part of the City of Playford’s program to upgrade roads within its local government area. The applicant is applying to clear native vegetation within both roadside reserves either side of Bassnet Road, Humbug Scrub (between Sambell Road and Humbug Scrub Road) (Figure 1). As the City of Playford are applying to clear native vegetation for the upgrading of Bassnet Road the proposed development and associated native vegetation clearance is considered to comply with Regulation 12(34): Infrastructure of the Native Vegetation Regulations 2017. 2. LAND USE DESCRIPTION AND HISTORY 2.1 Bassnet Road, Humbug Scrub The 2.7km section of Bassnet Road proposed for upgrading is situated between Sambell Road and Humbug Scrub Road in the suburb of Humbug Scrub and is located approximately 6-9km south-west of the township of Williamstown (Figure 3). This section of road corridor is adjacent to several cadastral boundaries in the Hundred of Para Wirra. The landform in the region is described as hilly uplands on metamorphics. The region contains pine plantations, open parklands with sown pasture understorey and remnant native vegetation. The native vegetation associations adjoining this section of Bassnet Road are mapped as the following communities: • Eucalyptus fasciculosa, Eucalyptus leucoxylon ssp. leucoxylon and Eucalyptus odorata woodland; • Eucalyptus goniocalyx ssp. goniocalyx and Eucalyptus fasciculosa woodland; • Eucalyptus goniocalyx ssp. goniocalyx woodland; and • Eucalyptus camaldulensis var. camaldulensis and Eucalyptus leucoxylon ssp. leucoxylon woodland (Source: NatureMaps, Government of South Austrlia, 2018. https://data.environment.sa.gov.au/NatureMaps/Pages/default.aspx)

  • ACT, Australian Capital Territory
    Biodiversity Summary for NRM Regions Species List What is the summary for and where does it come from? 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. All species names have been confirmed as valid species names, but it is not possible to confirm all species locations.

  • Locally Threatened Plants in Manningham
    Locally Threatened Plants in Manningham Report by Dr Graeme S. Lorimer, Biosphere Pty Ltd, to Manningham City Council Version 1.0, 28 June, 2010 Executive Summary A list has been compiled containing 584 plant species that have been credibly recorded as indigenous in Manningham. 93% of these species have been assessed by international standard methods to determine whether they are threatened with extinction in Manningham. The remaining 7% of species are too difficult to assess within the scope of this project. It was found that nineteen species can be confidently presumed to be extinct in Manningham. Two hundred and forty-six species, or 42% of all indigenous species currently growing in Manningham, fall into the ‘Critically Endangered’ level of risk of extinction in the municipality. This is an indication that if current trends continue, scores of plant species could die out in Manningham over the next decade or so – far more than have become extinct since first settlement. Another 21% of species fall into the next level down on the threat scale (‘Endangered’) and 17% fall into the third (‘Vulnerable’) level. The total number of threatened species (i.e. in any of the aforementioned three levels) is 466, representing 82% of all indigenous species that are not already extinct in Manningham. These figures indicate that conservation of indigenous flora in Manningham is at a critical stage. This also has grave implications for indigenous fauna. Nevertheless, corrective measures are possible and it is still realistic to aim to maintain the existence of every indigenous plant species presently in the municipality. The scope of this study has not allowed much detail to be provided about corrective measures except in the case of protecting threatened species under the Manningham Planning Scheme.

  • The Natural History of Upper Sturt, South Australia Part I
    THE NATURAL HISTORY OF UPPER STURT, SOUTH AUSTRALIA PART I: VEGETATION HISTORY, FLORA AND MACROFUNGI OF A MESSMATE STRINGYBARK FOREST Tony Robinson and Julia Haska PO Box 47 UPPER STURT SA 5156 Email: [email protected] ABSTRACT: An area of Eucalyptus obliqua, Messmate Stringybark Forest in Upper Sturt, Mt Lofty Ranges, South Australia was studied over a 38 year period. The land use history since the area was first settled by Europeans in 1843, to the present day is summarized. The area is now known to support 249 species of plants of which 105 species are introduced and 64 species of macrofungi of which at least 3 are introduced. Although the area has undergone many changes since European settlement it remains an important area of remnant native vegetation. There are ongoing challenges from weed invasion, overgrazing by over-abundant kangaroos and introduced koalas and from potential damage by severe wildfire KEY WORDS: Upper Sturt, land use history, forest, flora, fungi, vegetation INTRODUCTION: This is the first of three papers describing revegetation of cleared land adjacent to areas of relatively natural remnant native vegetation. In this paper, elements of the vegetation, flora and fungi are described in a study area at 16 Pole Road, Upper Sturt in the Mt Lofty Ranges. The second paper describes the vertebrate and invertebrate fauna of the area, while the third paper provides results of fauna and vegetation monitoring in sample sites established in both the re-vegetated area and the remnant natural vegetation in the Upper Sturt study area. A second series of three papers will cover the flora and fauna and a more extensive revegetation program on a study area on the western end of Kangaroo Island (in prep.).

This document may be cited as ‘Department for Environment and Heritage (2008) Mowantjie Willauwar and Poonthie Ruwe Conservation Parks Management Plan, Adelaide, South Australia’. FOREWORD Mowantjie Willauwar Conservation Park conserves 142.9 hectares of Southern Cypress Pine Forest found approximately six kilometres south-west of Tailem Bend in the Murralyands region of South Australia. The nationally vulnerable Sandhill Greenhood Orchid and nationally endangered Metallic Sun-orchid have been found in the park. The population of Sandhill Greenhood Orchids is one of the nine remaining in our State. Visitors can enjoy this park while walking along the new River Bend Heritage Trail that extends between the ferry crossings in Tailem Bend and Wellington. Poonthie Ruwe Conservation Park is in close proximity to Mowantjie Willauwar Conservation Park, being approximately five kilometres south-east of Tailem Bend. The Scented Irongrass tussock grassland conserved in Poonthie Ruwe Conservation Park is the largest known area of this vegetation community (240.9 hectares) endemic to South Australia. Temperate grasslands such as those found in this park are poorly conserved resulting in a classification as critically endangered under Australian Government legislation.
