  • Aquatic Root Mat Community Number 1 of Caves of the Swan Coastal Plain
    Aquatic Root Mat Community Number 1 of Caves of the Swan Coastal Plain TEC Description The community occurs in caves at sites that include Yanchep National Park and surrounds. It comprises root mats of Eucalyptus gomphocephala (tuart) supported by groundwater fed streams and pools that occur in the caves. The root mats support a highly diverse and distinctive assemblage of cave fauna including the critically endangered Crystal Cave Crangonyctoid Hurleya sp. (cave shrimp). Distribution Seven caves are documented and distributed over a range of ~4km, the majority located within Yanchep National Park, north of Perth. Department of Biodiversity, Conservation and Attractions (DBCA) Region: Swan DBCA District: Swan Coastal Local Government Authority: City of Wanneroo Habitat Requirements Caves that contain the community occur at Yanchep occur where sandy soils underlie superficial limestone and where the waters of the Gnangara Mound seep through the sand to form a system of subterranean pools and streams. The persistence of the root mat communities depends on the presence of permanent water in caves and the persistence of tuart. The streams or pools need to be sufficiently warm, and not too far below the ground- surface, for tree roots to reach and grow in the water (Jasinska 1995). Indigenous Interests An Aboriginal Sites Register is kept by the Department of Indigenous Affairs and lists the caves as significant sites. Two registered sites also occur within the vicinity of the occurrences. The South West Aboriginal Land and Sea Council (SWALSC), an umbrella group, covers the areas in which the community occurs. Traditional owner group: Whadjuk. Conservation Status Listed as critically endangered under WA Minister Environmentally Sensitive Areas list in policy.

  • Supplementary Papers CONTENTS
    \ Department of Conservation and Land Management, WA Yanchep National Park "',,.· DRAFT MANAGEMENT PLAN APRIL 1988 Supplementary Papers CONTENTS: Supplementary Paper No. 1 1 Responses received from letters and comment forms. Supplementary Paper No. 2 7 Visitor survey. Supplementary Paper No. 3 31 Public Workshop. SUPPLEMENTARY PAPERS INTRODUCTION These papers supplement the draft m&nagement plan for Yanchep National Park, and provide for summary of th~ public participation involved with the preparation of the plan. In relevant sections throughout the draft management plan overall results and specific comments are included as part of the background information, combining all asp~cts of public comment. It is a requirement under the CALM Act (1984) that public comment be invited on draft management plans. However it is now practice also to seek public comment and participation during the preparation of the draft management plans. This enables planning to be responsive to public feeling and atcitudes throughout the planning process. Since Yanchep National Park is such a popular and well known Park, public comment and information on visitor use has been sought extensively. Much of the direction of the management plan, and specific objectives and strategies, took the information collected into account. Public participation for the preparation of this plan involved: letters sent to 300 individuals and organisations; a display and pamphlets in the Park office; advertisements in the local papers; signs in the Park; a visitor survey; a public workshop; and forms were available in the Park office for people wishing to make a written comment while in the Park. Table 1 is a summary of the main issues raised and the general responses.
