    INTERIM RECOVERY PLAN NO. 334 STIRLING RANGE BEARD HEATH (Leucopogon gnaphalioides) INTERIM RECOVERY PLAN 2013-2018 February 2013 Department of Environment and Conservation Kensington Interim Recovery Plan for Leucopogon gnaphalioides FOREWORD Interim Recovery Plans (IRPs) are developed within the framework laid down in Department of Conservation and Land Management (CALM) Policy Statements Nos. 44 and 50. Note: the Department of CALM formally became the Department of Environment and Conservation (DEC) in July 2006. DEC will continue to adhere to these Policy Statements until they are revised and reissued. Plans outline the recovery actions that are required to urgently address those threatening processes most affecting the ongoing survival of threatened taxa or ecological communities, and begin the recovery process. DEC is committed to ensuring that Threatened taxa 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 taxa, always within one year of endorsement of that rank by the Minister. This plan will operate from February 2013 to January 2018 but will remain in force until withdrawn or replaced. It is intended that, if the taxon is still ranked as Critically Endangered, this plan will be reviewed after five years and the need for further recovery actions assessed. This plan was given regional approval on 14TH January 2013 and was approved by the Director of Nature Conservation on 7th February 2013. The provision of funds identified in this plan is dependent on budgetary and other constraints affecting DEC, as well as the need to address other priorities.
