Forrestania Nickel Project 1.0 PURPOSE AND SCOPE The Commonwealth Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999 (EPBC Act) is triggered when actions that have, or which are likely to have, a significant impact on Matters of National Environmental Significance (NES) are undertaken, or are proposed to be undertaken. Matters of NES that are protected by the EPBC Act include: World Heritage Properties; National Heritage Places; Wetlands of International importance; Listed threatened species or ecological communities; Migratory species; Commonwealth marine areas; and Nuclear actions (including uranium mines). Other matters protected by the EPBC Act include: The environment, where actions proposed are on, or will affect Commonwealth land and the environment; The environment, where Commonwealth agencies are proposing to take an action. Western Areas NL’s (WSA), Spotted Quoll mining proposal (the SQ proposal) was referred to the Commonwealth Department of the Environment, Water, Heritage and the Arts (DEWHA) in August 2008. Following referral of the SQ proposal, advice was received from DEWHA (20 October 2008), that the SQ proposal was considered to be a controlled action (i.e., likely to have a significant impact on a matter of NES; namely listed threatened species and communities) and that it would be assessed at a preliminary documentation level of assessment. It is the purpose of this document to review the potential for the SQ proposal to impact on listed threatened species and communities which, according to the DEWHA protected matters search tool, have potential to occur within the proposed SQ open pit and underground mine footprint area. Strategies that seek to avoid, mitigate or offset impacts on listed threatened species and communities of concern in the SQ proposal project area are included in the Environmental Protection Statement and accompanying management plans and appendices. These were prepared for the Western Australian (WA) Environmental Protection Authority (EPA) as a part of the formal WA Environmental Impact Assessment process for the SQ proposal. This document is included as a supplement to this document. 2.0 INTRODUCTION WSA propose to undertake the development of the nickel sulphide resource located

  • 7191 Biological Surveys of Four Goldfields Reserves
    7191 BIOLOGICAL SURVEYSOF FOUR GOLDFIELDS RESERVES KURRAWANGNATURE RESER\,1E BURRAROCK NATURE RESERVE CAVEHILL NATURE RESERVE DORDIEROCKS NATURE RESERVE BY ANDREW CHAPMAN, IAN KEALLEY, DAVID McMILLAN, PETERMcMILLAN ANDGEOFFROLLAND INTRODUCTION Therequirement to conductthese surveys is part of an on-goingcon"tmitment to undertakebiological surveys of reservesin CALM,s GoldfieldsRegion. These particular reserveswere selectedbecause they are all relatively small, closeto Kalgoorlieand two in particularare subject to high levelsof recreationaluse. The objectives,wereto survey vertebratespecies present (and invertebratesin the caseof Kurrawang), to map the vegetationand searchfor endangeredand poorly known plant species,particularly eucalypts. METHODS Methodsof survey were identicalfor eachreserve. Four lines of pit traps were set for mammals,reptiles and insects(Kurrawang only). Eachtrap line conr- prised six pit traps,250mm and 140mm externaldiameter alternated at a 10m spacing,joinedby a200 mm high fly-wire driftfence.Thedisposition of traplines is indicatedon figs.1,2,3 and4. As far aspossible, pit trap lineswere established to sampleprincipal vegetationtypes as determinedfrom aerial photography and ground inspection. Elliot traps were setto supplementpit trapping effort or whereit wasimpossible to setpits. A1l traps were set for five consecutivedays and all work donebetween October and December1988. All fauna,except for a few voucherspecimens, were identified and released.Mammals were addition- ally weighed measuredand temporarilymarked to identify recaphres. Headtorch- ing and spotlighting were undertakenfor nocturnalfauna. Other fauna data, particularly for birds, were recordedopportunistically. At eachtrapping site vegetation was describedby the Muir (1977)structural classification.Soil classificationwas by the Northcote (1971)method. Vegetationwas mapped by aerial photo interpretationand ground truthing. Collectionsof plants principally from trapping siteswere made and sentto the Herbarium for identification.
