In some circumstances the scope of services may have been limited by a range of factors such as time, budget, access and/or disturbance constraints. In preparing the report, WSP has relied upon data, surveys, analyses, designs, plans and other information provided by the client and other individuals and organisations, most of which are referred to in the report (the data). Except as otherwise stated in the report, WSP has not verified the accuracy or completeness of the data. To the extent that the statements, opinions, facts, information, conclusions and/or recommendations in the report (conclusions) are based in whole or part on the data, those conclusions are contingent upon the accuracy and completeness of the data. WSP will not be liable in relation to incorrect conclusions should any data, information or condition be incorrect or have been concealed, withheld, misrepresented or otherwise not fully disclosed to WSP. No sampling technique can eliminate the possibility that results are not totally representative of conditions encountered. The conclusions are based upon the data and the ecological surveys and are therefore merely indicative of the condition of the study area at the time of preparing the report. Also, it should be recognised that conditions, including the presence of threatened biodiversity, can change with time. No sampling technique can eliminate the possibility that a species is present within the proposal area. Within the limitations imposed by the scope of services, the surveys and preparation of this report have been undertaken and performed in a professional manner, in accordance with generally accepted practices and using a degree of skill and care ordinarily exercised by reputable environmental consultants under similar circumstances.

Except as provided below parties other than the client should not rely upon the report or the accuracy or completeness of any conclusions and should make their own enquiries and obtain independent advice in relation to such matters. Executive summary Introduction Transport for NSW (Transport) is proposing to upgrade Henry Lawson Drive between Keys Parade, Milperra, to Tower Road, Bankstown Aerodrome (known as Henry Lawson Drive Upgrade Stage 1A) (the overall proposal). The overall proposal consists of upgrading a 1.3 kilometre length of Henry Lawson Drive and an additional 480 metres along Milperra Road, including intersection upgrades. The overall proposal forms the first stage of the progressive upgrade to 7.5 kilometres of Henry Lawson Drive between the intersections of Hume Highway, Villawood, and the M5 South Western Motorway, Milperra. The upgrade would help ease existing traffic issues and increase traffic capacity at key intersections to help meet growing demand, with residential, commercial and industrial development in the surrounding area expected to increase in the coming years. The upgrade would be delivered in three stages. The overall proposal has been split into two parts as a result of proposed activities interacting with both Divisions 4.1 and 5.1 of the Environment Planning & Assessment Act 1979 (EP&A Act). The two parts are assessed separately as illustrated in Figure 1.1 and described briefly below. • REF proposal – incorporates the majority of the overall proposal subject to assessment under Division 5.1 of the Environment Planning & Assessment Act 1979 (EP&A Act). • EIS proposal – areas of the overall proposal occurring on land mapped as Coastal Wetlands under the State Environment Planning Policy (Coastal Management) area subject to assessment as designated development under Division 4.1 of the EP&A Act. This report provides an assessment of biodiversity values associated with the EIS proposal to support an Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) subject to assessment as designated development under Division 4.1 of the EP&A Act. Other stages of upgrading Henry Lawson Drive would be developed separately in the future and will be subject to future separate assessment processes. Methodology A combination of desk-based research and field assessment was used to develop an appreciation of the existing environment of the study area to inform the impact assessment. The field survey aimed to ground-truth the results of the background research and habitat assessment. As such, all threatened species, populations and communities that were considered likely to occur within the study area were targeted during the field survey to determine presence or likely occurrence. Vegetation and Flora Surveys Initial native vegetation surveys were undertaken by WSP (2019) over an eight-day period on the 21 to 25 & 31 May, 1 & 21 of June 2018. Additional field surveys were undertaken on the 6 & 7 April, 29 & 30 September and 1 October 2020.These surveys sought primarily to assess the extent and condition of vegetation and fauna habitat, especially for threatened species, populations and ecological communities. The field surveys aimed to ground-truth the results of the background research including desktop analysis of vegetation and habitat assessment. The floristic diversity and possible presence of threatened species was assessed using a combination of survey techniques including; plot-based (quadrat/transect) (14 plots were completed), rapid point assessments and parallel line transverses in accordance with the relevant guidelines. Data on geology, dominant canopy species, native diversity, vegetation structure and condition was collected across the study area to validate and refine existing vegetation Henry Lawson Drive Stage 1A i Biodiversity Development Assessment Report classifications and to determine the associated Plant Community Type (PCT) in accordance with the BioNet Vegetation Classification (Environment Energy and Science, 2021c). Vegetation zones and conditions were identified and mapped following the BAM (Department of Planning Industry and Environment, 2020a). This was based on field verification of the PCT, class and formation as outlined in BioNet Vegetation Classification (Environment Energy and Science, 2021c). Targeted threatened flora surveys were conducted for candidate species that were considered to have a moderate or higher likelihood of occurrence in the study area. Targeted flora surveys were completed by conducting reference checks, parallel line traverses, random meanders and during BAM plot surveys. Fauna Surveys Targeted threatened fauna surveys involved: • Fauna habitat assessment to assess the likelihood of threatened fauna species (those species known or predicted to occur within the locality from the literature and database review) occurring within the study area. • Nocturnal surveys consisted of spotlighting and call playback, targeting threatened owls, threatened arboreal mammals and threatened amphibians. • 20 minute diurnal bird searches completed by actively walking through the nominated site (transect) over a period of 20-minutes (this included areas of potential shorebird habitat). • Remote motion sensing infra-red cameras were positioned in the study area/subject land to target arboreal mammals (e.g. Squirrel Glider). • Spot Assessment Technique (SAT) was undertaken to identify the presence of Koala usage within the habitats. • Active invertebrate searches involved diurnal hand searches (i.e. disturbance of habitat) and visual searches targeting Cumberland Plain Land Snail. • Ultrasonic Anabat bat detection was used to record and identify the echolocation calls of insectivorous bats foraging across the study area. • Daytime inspections of culverts and bridges were undertaken within the study area and subject land to identify potential bat roosting sites. • Opportunistic sightings of animals were recorded during field surveys. Evidence of animal activity, such as scats, diggings, scratch marks, nests/dreys, burrows etc., was also noted.

Diameter Shaft and Fans Installation Environmental Risk Assessment ACOL 5.5m. Diameter Shaft and Fans Installation Environmental Risk Assessment 1 PURPOSE & SCOPE The purpose of the risk assessment is to identify the risks, and the controls required to be put in place, to enable the installation of a 5.5m diameter upcast ventilation shaft, fans and associated infrastructure. The scope was limited to environmental and community risks, applicable to the built and natural environment (onsite and offsite), and including public safety (but not ACOL OHS risk or operational asset damage). 2 BACKGROUND ACOL proposes to construct a new 5.5 metre diameter upcast ventilation shaft and install associated extraction fans and ancillary surface infrastructure. This project enables the establishment of sufficient ventilation capacity for the ACOL to safely continue mining operations for a further 12 to 14 years. The proposed site for the planned new main ventilation shaft and fans is located on ACOL owned property, on the surface above the start of longwall block one. The total mine airflow quantity provided by the existing two main fans and backroad supplementary fan combination is estimated to be limited to a maximum of 190m3/s. However, expert consultation has confirmed a requirement to upgrade the mine’s ventilation system to provide between 290m3/s and 365m3/s total volumetric capacity, to safely meet future demands.

  • Hunter-Central Rivers, New South Wales
    Biodiversity Summary for NRM Regions Guide to Users Background What is the summary for and where does it come from? This summary has been produced by the Department of Sustainability, Environment, Water, Population and Communities (SEWPC) for the Natural Resource Management Spatial Information System. It highlights important elements of the biodiversity of the region in two ways: • Listing species which may be significant for management because they are found only in the region, mainly in the region, or they have a conservation status such as endangered or vulnerable. • Comparing the region to other parts of Australia in terms of the composition and distribution of its species, to suggest components of its biodiversity which may be nationally significant. The summary was produced using the Australian 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. 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. The list of families covered in ANHAT is shown in Appendix 1. Groups notnot yet yet covered covered in inANHAT ANHAT are are not not included included in the in the summary. • The data used for this summary come from authoritative sources, but they are not perfect.
