  • Cool Temperate Mixed Forest Investigation Report
    INVESTIGATION REPORT COOL TEMPERATE RAINFOREST & MIXED FOREST RAINFOREST SITE OF SIGNIFICANCE (EG85 - Hensleigh - Far Creek) COAST RANGE ROAD VicForests Logging coupe 886-509-0012 Abstract Sections of VicForests scheduled logging coupe 886-509-0012 were investigated to assess the presence and extent of Cool Temperate Rainforest and Cool Temperate Mixed Forest communities. Areas of Cool Temperate Rainforest were identified within coupe 886-509-0012. These areas of the study location were readily identified by the presence of rainforest character species and the comparative structural composition of these stands to those expected to be found in mature rainforest. Cool Temperate Mixed Forest (Mixed Forest) areas of the study location within coupe 886-509- 0012 were identified by noting the presence of characteristic Mixed Forest species including in their formation of a multi-layer structured community comprised of Mixed Forest character species of an advanced age class, the presence of cool temperate rainforest character and differential species, and the topographic contiguity and relative proximity between the Mixed Forest areas within coupe 886-509- 0012 and the extant Mixed Forest clearly identifiable in the adjacent forest areas immediately to the north of coupe 886-509-0012 across Coast Range Road in the Errinundra National Park. This investigation also notes that coupe 886-509-0012 is located within a “Rainforest Site of Significance” (EG85 - Hensleigh - Far Creek). Recommendations are made to the Department of Environment, Land, Water and Planning (DELWP) and to VicForests to ensure that all areas of Cool Temperate Rainforest and Mixed Forest are excluded from logging and that no further logging is undertaken within the “Rainforest Site of Significance”.

  • Controlling Deer in Victoria
    Controlling deer in Victoria AN OPEN LETTER TO The Hon. The Hon. The Hon. Jaclyn Symes Lily D’Ambrosio Lisa Neville Minister for Minister for Energy, Minister for Water Regional Development, Environment and Minister for Police and Agriculture and Resources Climate Change Emergency Services Level 36, 121 Exhibition St, Level 16, 8 Nicholson St, Level 17, 8 Nicholson St, Melbourne VIC 3000 East Melbourne VIC 3002 East Melbourne VIC 3002 [email protected] [email protected] [email protected] 2 May 2019 Dear Ministers Symes, D’Ambrosio and Neville, We are writing to you in your roles as key natural resource Ministers in the Victorian Government. We are concerned that Victoria’s Draft Deer Management Strategy (2018) fell far short of addressing the considerable problems feral deer bring to peri-urban and regional communities, and to wetlands, catchments and the natural environment. We offer here some recommendations for the final strategy; it is a critical opportunity to control deer populations and to reverse the increasing impacts they are having. We agree with the rough estimate for the state’s deer population, as documented in the draft strategy, at ‘between several hundred thousand up to one million or more’. The population is growing rapidly at an exponential rate1, and far exceeds the capacity for control by recreational hunters. Research into the native habitats of the four main species of deer in Victoria indicates that they can continue to extend their range, potentially occupying almost every habitat in the nation2. Victoria’s biodiversity is at risk.

It will the enhance the social and economic attractiveness of the region’s rapidly developing commercial, industrial and new residential centres by strengthening their present relationship with the natural environment. Fortunately, many of the basic building blocks needed to help turn the vision into reality already exist.

  • Supporting Information for Section 3.3
    Appendix E – Supporting Information for Section 3.3 GHD | Report for Latrobe City Council –Hyland Highway Landfill Extension, 3136742 Gippsland Waste and Resource Recovery Implementation Plan June 2017 Section 6: Infrastructure Schedule Section 6 | Infrastructure Schedule 6. Infrastructure Schedule As a requirement of the EP Act, the Gippsland Implementation Plan must include an Infrastructure Schedule that outlines existing waste and resource infrastructure within the region and provides detail on what will be required to effectively manage Gippsland’s future waste needs. The purpose of the Schedule is to facilitate planning to identify and address gaps in infrastructure based on current status, future needs, and constraints and opportunities. In developing this Schedule, the region has worked with the other Waste and Resource Recovery Groups, ensuring consistency and alignment with the Infrastructure Schedules across the state. A key requirement of the Infrastructure Schedule is to facilitate decision making that prioritises resource recovery over landfilling. To the knowledge of the GWRRG, all relevant facilities currently in existence have been included in the Schedule. It is important to note that inclusion of a facility should not in any way be interpreted as a warranty or representation as to its quality, compliance, effectiveness or suitability. While the GWRRG has made every effort to ensure the information contained in the Infrastructure Schedule is accurate and complete, the list of facilities included, as well as information and comments in the ‘other considerations’ section, should not be taken as exhaustive and are provided to fulfil the objectives of the EP Act. Further information about individual facilities should be sought from the EPA or (where appropriate) owners or operators of facilities.

A report to the Australian Alps Liaison Committee. K.R. Thiele & S.M.Prober Ecological Interactions. Jan. 1999 Assessment of Impacts of Feral Horses (Equus cabalIus) in the Australian Alps A report to the Australian Alps Liaison Committee. K.R.Thiele & S.M.Prober Ecological Interactions. Jan. 1999 ~ I Introduction Feral Horses in Australia Horses were fust introduced into Australia in 1788 with the arrival ofthe first fleet, with irregular subsequent introductions from South Africa, India and England (Dobbie et al. 1993). Conditions in Australia were generally suitable for horses, and records of horses escaping to the bush date from as early as 1804. Feral horses were first recognized as pests during the late 1860s (Rolls 1969). Australia now has an estimated 300 000 to 600 000 feral horses, the largest population in the world (Berman and Jarman 1987, Clement et al. 1990). Most occur in remote semi­ arid areas, particularly the extensive cattle-raising districts ofthe Northern Territory, Queensland and Western Australia (Dobbie et al. 1993). The greatest concentrations outside semi-arid regions occur in the montane to sub-alpine regions of New South Wales and Victoria. Feral horses have been recognised as a problem there since the nineteenth century (Sydney Morning Herald 1871, Helms 1890) and have been identified as a threat to montane environments in many studies including those ofByles (1932), Costin (1954), Anon (1977) and Alpine Planning Project Team ) -.
