  • Consultation Guide for Salt-Wedge Estuaries Ecological Community
    Assemblage of species associated with open-coast salt-wedge estuaries of western and central Victoria ecological community Consultation Guide The Assemblage of species associated with open-coast salt-wedge estuaries of western and central Victoria was nominated for protection as a nationally listed ecological community under Australia’s national environment law, the EPBC Act. The nomination was accepted in 2013 and a scientific assessment is now under way. This assessment culminates in a Conservation Advice and will: • clarify what kind of estuary is covered by the proposed listing and the name and location of these estuaries; • identify what evidence shows these estuaries to be threatened; and • recommend what can be done to minimise further damage to the ecological community and help restore natural water flow regimes. This guide briefly explains the proposed listing and its implications. The draft scientific assessment, or Conservation Advice, is now available for comment. Your feedback on the proposal to list the ecological community as threatened is welcome. See back page for details of how to get consultation documents and provide your comments. Images Maps were prepared by ERIN (Environmental Resources Information Network) of the Department of the Environment and Energy. What is the ecological community? The open-coast salt-wedge estuaries of western and central Victoria ecological community consists of the assemblage of native plants, animals and micro-organisms that are associated with the dynamic salt-wedge estuary systems found in the Mediterranean climate, microtidal regime (< 2 m) and high wave energy coastline of western and central Victoria. The ecological community occurs within 25 salt-wedge forming estuaries in the coastal region defined by the border between South Australia and Victoria (to the west) and the most southerly point of Wilsons Promontory (to the east).
