Sedgelands in Holocene Dune Swales Recovery Plan
INTERIM RECOVERY PLAN NO. 314 SEDGELANDS IN HOLOCENE DUNE SWALES RECOVERY PLAN September 2011 Department of Environment and Conservation Species and Communities Branch Locked Bag 104, Bentley Delivery Centre, WA, 6983 FOREWORD Interim Recovery Plans (IRPs) are developed within the framework laid down in Department of Environment and Conservation (DEC) Policy Statements Nos 44 and 50. IRPs 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 critically endangered ecological communities are conserved through the preparation and implementation of Recovery Plans or Interim Recovery Plans and by ensuring that conservation action commences as soon as possible and always within one year of endorsement of that rank by DEC’s Director of Nature Conservation. This Interim Recovery Plan will operate from September 2011 but will remain in force until withdrawn or replaced. It is intended that, if the community is still listed as critically endangered after five years, the need for an updated plan will be evaluated. The provision of funds identified in this Interim Recovery Plan is dependent on budgetary and other constraints affecting DEC, as well as the need to address other priorities. Information in this IRP was accurate at September 2011. This interim recovery plan replaces plan number 110 Sedgelands in Holocene dune swales 2002-2007 by V. English, J. Blyth, N. Gibson, D. Pember, J. Davis, J. Tucker, P. Jennings and B. Walker. ACKNOWLEDGMENTS This interim recovery plan was prepared by Gemma Grigg and Valerie English. -

The document may only be used for the purposes for which it was commissioned. Unauthorised copying or use of this document is prohibited. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Defence Housing Australia (DHA) is proposing to develop Lots 1512 and 5000 Lake Street, Rockingham for residential housing/apartment construction. The site is 3.75 ha in size and is located to the north east of Lake Richmond, in the suburb of Rockingham, approximately 50km south of the Perth CBD. The site is currently zoned ‘Urban’ under the Metropolitan Region Scheme (MRS) and ‘Development’ under the City of Rockingham Town Planning Scheme No. 2 (TPS). The site was previously utilised as a caravan park, with short and long-term tenants, and had been cleared. During this time, eucalypts, pine trees and palm trees were planted across the site. The eucalypts (mostly Tuarts – Eucalyptus gomphocephala) have been trimmed and maintained within the caravan park, removing any growth past approximately 3-5m in height. As a result, of the historical land use, the site itself has minimal environmental value. The site is adjacent to the Rockingham Lakes Regional Park which includes Lake Richmond, a Conservation Category Wetland (CCW), and a community of thrombolites, which are critically endangered and classified as a Threatened Ecological Community (TEC) (DEC, 2010a). -

Referral of Proposed Action
Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999 Referral of proposed action What is a referral? The Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999 (the EPBC Act) provides for the protection of the environment, especially matters of national environmental significance (NES). Under the EPBC Act, a person must not take an action that has, will have, or is likely to have a significant impact on any of the matters of NES without approval from the Australian Government Environment Minister or the Minister’s delegate. (Further references to ‘the Minister’ in this form include references to the Minister’s delegate.) To obtain approval from the Environment Minister, a proposed action should be referred. The purpose of a referral is to obtain a decision on whether your proposed action will need formal assessment and approval under the EPBC Act. Your referral will be the principal basis for the Minister’s decision as to whether approval is necessary and, if so, the type of assessment that will be undertaken. These decisions are made within 20 bu siness days, provided that sufficient information is provided in the referral. Who can make a referral? Referrals may be made by or on behalf of a person proposing to take an action, the Commonwealth or a Commonwealth agency, a state or territory governm ent, or agency, provided that the relevant government or agency has administrative responsibilities relating to the action. When do I need to make a referral? A referral must be made for actions that are likely to have a significant
