Plans outline the recovery actions that are required to urgently address those threatening processes most affecting the ongoing survival of threatened flora or ecological communities, and begin the recovery process. Parks and Wildlife is committed to ensuring that threatened flora are conserved through the preparation and implementation of Recovery Plans (RPs) or IRPs, and by ensuring that conservation action commences as soon as possible and, in the case of Critically Endangered (CR) flora, always within one year of endorsement of that rank by the Minister. This updated plan replaces IRP No. 184 Cumquat Eremophila (Eremophila denticulata subsp. trisulcata) (Fitzgerald et al. 2004). The plan will operate from July 2015 to June 2020 but will remain in force until withdrawn or replaced. It is intended that, if the taxon is still ranked as Endangered (EN) in Western Australia, this plan will be reviewed after five years and the need for further recovery actions assessed. This plan was given regional approval on 9 July 2015 and was approved by the Director of Science and Conservation on 27 July 2015. The provision of funds identified in this plan is dependent on budgetary and other constraints affecting Parks and Wildlife, as well as the need to address other priorities. Information in this plan was accurate at July 2015. Plan preparation: This plan was prepared by: Julie Waters Conservation Officer, Parks and Wildlife Esperance District, 92 Dempster Street, Esperance, WA 6450. Andrew Brown Threatened Flora Coordinator, Parks and Wildlife Species and Communities Branch, Locked Bag 104, Bentley Delivery Centre, WA 6983.

Interim Recovery Plan 2015–2020. Interim Recovery Plan No. 352. Department of Parks and Wildlife, Western Australia. 4 Interim Recovery Plan for Eremophila denticulata subsp. trisulcata Summary Scientific name: Eremophila denticulata subsp. Common name: Cumquat Eremophila trisulcata Flowering period: October−June Family: Scrophulariaceae DPaW district: Esperance DPaW region: South Coast NRM region: South Coast Shire: Esperance Recovery team: Esperance District Threatened IBRA region: Esperance Plains Flora and Communities Recovery IBRA subregion: Recherche Team (EDTFCRT) Distribution and habitat: Eremophila denticulata subsp. trisulcata is found over a 20km geographic range near Mount Ragged, north-east of Esperance. Plants grow on powdery grey loams over limestone in tall Eucalyptus ovularis and E. fraseri subsp. fraseri woodland. Habitat critical to the survival of the species, and important populations: It is considered that all known habitat for wild populations is critical to the survival of Eremophila denticulata subsp. trisulcata and that all wild populations are important populations. Habitat critical to the survival of E. denticulata subsp. trisulcata includes the area of occupancy of populations, areas of similar habitat surrounding and linking populations (these providing potential habitat for population expansion and for pollinators), additional occurrences of similar habitat that may contain undiscovered populations of the taxon or be suitable for future translocations, and the local catchment for the surface and/or groundwater that maintains the habitat of the taxon. Conservation status: Eremophila denticulata subsp. trisulcata is specially protected under the Western Australian Wildlife Conservation Act 1950 and is ranked as Endangered (EN) in Western Australia under International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) 2001 criteria B1ab(iv,v)+2ab(iv,v) due to its extent of occurrence estimated to be less than 5,000 km2; populations being severely fragmented; their being a continuing decline in the number of mature individuals in some populations and its area of occupancy estimated to be less than 500km2. The taxon is listed as EN under the Commonwealth Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999 (EPBC Act). Threats: The main threats to Eremophila denticulata subsp. trisulcata are changed fire regimes, road works, poor recruitment, vehicles, grazing, trampling, insecure tenure and weeds. Existing recovery actions: The following recovery actions have been or are currently being implemented and have been considered in the preparation of this plan: 1. 21,500 Eremophila denticulata subsp. trisulcata seeds are stored in the Threatened Flora Seed Centre (TFSC) at –20C. 2. The Botanic Gardens and Parks Authority (BGPA) have seven living plants. 3. Roadside markers have been installed at Populations 1 and 2. 4. Surveys carried out in 2013 found one new population and one new subpopulation. 5. Information on fire and disturbance response was obtained following chaining and prescribed fire. 5 Interim Recovery Plan for Eremophila denticulata subsp. trisulcata Plan objective: The objective of this plan is to abate identified threats and maintain or enhance in situ populations to ensure the long-term conservation of the subspecies in the wild. Recovery criteria Criteria for recovery success: The plan will be considered a success if one or more of the following take place. No important populations have been lost and the number of mature plants within those populations has remained within a 5% range or has increased by >5% over the term of the plan from 2,558 to 2,686 or more or New populations have been found, increasing the number of known populations from five to six or more over the term of the plan with no net loss of mature plants or The area of occupancy has increased by >5% over the term of the plan with no net loss of mature plants. Criteria for recovery failure: The plan will be considered a failure if one or more of the following take place. Important populations have been lost or The number of mature plants has decreased by >5% from 2,558 to 2,430 or less or The area of occupancy has decreased by >5% over the term of the plan with a loss of mature plants. Recovery actions 1. Coordinate recovery actions 9. Map habitat critical to the survival of Eremophila 2. Monitor populations denticulata subsp. trisulcata 3. Undertake surveys 10. Promote awareness 4. Collect and store seed and cutting material 11. Undertake feral animal control if required 5. Develop and implement a fire management strategy 12. Undertake weed control if required 6. Obtain biological and ecological information 13. Develop and implement a translocation proposal

  • Vegetation, Flora, Fauna and Environmental Considerations Report
    Howick Road North Construction Project (Parmango Rd to Ridgelands Rd) Vegetation, Flora, Fauna and Environmental Considerations Report January 2017 Julie Waters (BEnvSci) Senior Environmental Officer EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The survey has been undertaken in accordance with the Environmental Protection Authority (EPA) Technical Guidance, Terrestrial Flora and Vegetation Surveys for Environmental Impact Assessment in Western Australia (2016) as part of the application to Clear Native Vegetation for a 6.19 km section of road upgrades. Total area of 18.97 hectares, 5.3 hectares of which is native vegetation. The permit area is along Howick Road Reserve (between Ridgelands road and Parmango road). The existing road is a gravel road within a 100 metres wide road reserve. The total cleared road width is currently 18 metres. The Shire is applying to clear 25m wide along the 6.19km section of road, however this is unlikely to be all cleared. Introduction The Shire of Esperance plans to upgrade Howick Road from the Fisheries to Coolinup road over a 3 year period. One section has already been done CPS7185. This is a major transport route to the Beaumont CBH grain receival facility and thus gets a high amount of trucks and other traffic. The survey is part of our compliance obligations for the purpose of clearing native vegetation to construct the road. Howick road is approximately 85km east of Esperance, on the south coast of Western Australia. The Shire of Esperance has applied for a 25m wide clearing footprint area. The current road is 18m wide and the gazetted road reserve is 100m. The survey is restricted to an area 5m either side of the existing road alignment.

The current landfill cell at the site is approaching the end of its operational lifespan and therefore, the Shire has identified the need for long term disposal options. To allow for the continuation of these critical current waste management services, the Shire commissioned the preparation of a Waste Disposal Strategy in 2012 which examined the options for long-term waste disposal.
