Approved Conservation Advice for Angophora Robur This conservation advice was approved by the Minister / Delegate of the Minister on 3 July 2008 Approved conservation advice (s266B of the Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999) Approved Conservation Advice for Angophora robur This Conservation Advice has been developed based on the best available information at the time this conservation advice was approved. Description Angophora robur, Family Myrtaceae, also known as Sandstone Rough-barked Apple, is a small straggly tree growing to 10 m tall. It has persistent rough grey bark on the trunk and branches. Leaves are opposite to one another along stems, and unusually large, up to 18 cm long and 7.5 cm wide. The petioles (leaf stalks) are absent or up to 1 mm long. Flowers are white or cream coloured. Fruits are large, up to 1.6 cm long and wide, and cup-shaped with longitudinal ribs (Johnson & Hill, 1990; DECC, 2005a; CPBR, 2006). Conservation Status Angophora robur is listed as vulnerable. This species is eligible for listing as vulnerable under the Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999 (Cwlth) (EPBC Act) as, prior to the commencement of the EPBC Act, it was listed as vulnerable under Schedule 1 of the Endangered Species Protection Act 1992 (Cwlth). Angophora robur is also listed as vulnerable under Schedule 2 of the Threatened Species Conservation Act 1995 (NSW). Distribution and Habitat Angophora robur is locally frequent, but restricted to the sandstone belt running from north- west of Coffs Harbour, near Glenreagh, to the Coaldale district, north-west of Grafton, NSW. It is reserved in Banyabba and Sherwood Nature Reserves and Waihou Flora Reserve (Johnson & Hill, 1990; Sheringham & Westaway, 1995). Angophora robur is restricted to dry sclerophyll woodland on sandy or skeletal soils on sandstone, or occasionally granite (Johnson & Hill, 1990; DECC, 2005a). This species occurs within the Northern Rivers (NSW) Natural Resource Management Region (DECC, 2005a). The distribution of this species overlaps with the “White Box-Yellow Box-Blakely’s Red Gum Grassy Woodland and Derived Native Grassland” EPBC Act-listed threatened ecological community. Threats The main identified threats to Angophora robur are clearing of habitat for development or agriculture; too frequent fires, which may suppress regeneration; widening of roads; and timber harvesting (DECC, 2005a). The main potential threats identified for Angophora robur include development pressures on populations occurring on private land in Clarence Valley. Research Priorities Research priorities that would inform future regional and local priority actions include: • Design and implement a monitoring program to ensure adequate recruitment is occurring (DECC, 2005b). • Undertake survey work in suitable habitat and potential habitat to locate any additional populations. Angophora robur Conservation Advice - Page 1 of 3 This conservation advice was approved by the Minister / Delegate of the Minister on 3 July 2008 Regional and Local Priority Actions The following priority recovery and threat abatement actions can be done to support the recovery of Angophora robur. Habitat Loss, Disturbance and Modification • Monitor known populations to identify key threats. • Monitor the progress of recovery, including the effectiveness of management actions and the need to adapt them if necessary. • Prepare and distribute Environmental Impact Assessment Guidelines for A. robur, and consider A. robur during environmental planning for Clarence Valley Local Government Area, as it occurs on areas of private land (DECC, 2005b). • Consider A. robur in the Code of Practice for Private Native Forestry where it occurs in areas where logging on private land may occur (DECC, 2005b). • Ensure road widening and maintenance activities (or other infrastructure or development activities) involving substrate or vegetation disturbance in areas where A. robur occurs does not adversely impact on known populations. • Investigate further formal conservation arrangements such as the use of covenants, conservation agreements or inclusion in reserve tenure. Fire • Develop and implement a suitable fire management strategy for A. robur. • Provide maps of known occurrences to local and state Rural Fire Services and seek inclusion of mitigative measures in bush fire risk management plans, risk register and/or operation maps. Conservation Information • Raise awareness of A. robur within the local community, particularly landowners adjacent to known sites (DECC, 2005b). Enable Recovery of Additional Sites and/or Populations • Undertake appropriate seed collection and storage. • Investigate and establish ex-situ collection in collaboration with Botanic Gardens Trust (DECC, 2005b). • Investigate options for linking, enhancing or establishing additional populations. • Implement national translocation protocols (Vallee et al., 2004) if establishing additional populations is considered necessary and feasible. This list does not necessarily encompass all actions that may be of benefit to A. robur, but highlights those that are considered to be of highest priority at the time of preparing the conservation advice.

  • Northern Rivers, New South Wales
    Biodiversity Summary for NRM Regions Guide to Users Background What is the summary for and where does it come from? This summary has been produced by the Department of Sustainability, Environment, Water, Population and Communities (SEWPC) for the Natural Resource Management Spatial Information System. It highlights important elements of the biodiversity of the region in two ways: • Listing species which may be significant for management because they are found only in the region, mainly in the region, or they have a conservation status such as endangered or vulnerable. • Comparing the region to other parts of Australia in terms of the composition and distribution of its species, to suggest components of its biodiversity which may be nationally significant. The summary was produced using the Australian Natural Natural Heritage Heritage Assessment Assessment Tool Tool (ANHAT), which analyses data from a range of plant and animal surveys and collections from across Australia to automatically generate a report for each NRM region. Data sources (Appendix 2) include national and state herbaria, museums, state governments, CSIRO, Birds Australia and a range of surveys conducted by or for DEWHA. Limitations • ANHAT currently contains information on the distribution of over 30,000 Australian taxa. This includes all mammals, birds, reptiles, frogs and fish, 137 families of vascular plants (over 15,000 species) and a range of invertebrate groups. The list of families covered in ANHAT is shown in Appendix 1. Groups notnot yet yet covered covered in inANHAT ANHAT are are not not included included in the in the summary. • The data used for this summary come from authoritative sources, but they are not perfect.

  • Travelling Stock Route Review
    CLARENCE ENVIRONMENT CENTRE Inc 29-31 Skinner Street South Grafton 2460 Phone/ Fax: 02 6643 1863 Web site: www.cec.org.au E-mail: [email protected] Submission to Department of Primary Industry [email protected] on The NSW Travelling Stock Reserves Review Compiled by John Edwards For the Clarence Environment Centre Date: 20th June, 2017 Submission to “The NSW Travelling Stock Reserves Review” Introduction The Clarence Environment Centre (CEC) has maintained a shop-front in Grafton for over 28 years, and has a proud history of environmental advocacy. The conservation of Australia's natural environment, both terrestrial and and marine, has always been a priority for our members, and we believe the maintenance of healthy ecosystems and biodiversity is of paramount importance. To a large extent, modern transport and road infrastructure have rendered travelling stock routes and reserves (TSR) redundant, in that they no longer provide for the movement of livestock across the country as was their historical function. Today we see those corridors as providing a vital connection between now fragmented remnants of native vegetation largely contained within other public lands, mainly national parks or the state forests. The Clarence Environment Centre (CEC) has recently been involved with Local Land Services in the assessment of environmental values contained within TSRs in the Clarence Valley (see attachments 1 – 3). Summary As a direct result of our surveys and research for Local Land Services, we have identified that most, if not all TSRs contain high levels of flora diversity including threatened species, populations and communities, which in turn provide habitat for a wide range of fauna, many of which are currently facing extinction if current trends persist.

  • Listing Advice
    The Minister listed this as a key threatening process, effective from 26 February 2013 Advice to the Minister for Sustainability, Environment, Water, Population and Communities from the Threatened Species Scientific Committee (the Committee) on Amendments to the List of Key Threatening Processes under the Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999 (EPBC Act) 1. NAME AND DESCRIPTION OF THE THREATENING PROCESS 1.1 Title of the process Novel biota and their impact on biodiversity The term ‘novel biota’ refers to organisms that are new to an ecosystem whether by natural or human introduction, the latter being the primary focus of this KTP. There are a large number of terms in common use that fall within the term but the use of ‘novel biota’ is intended as an all- encompassing term. 1.2 Name Changes The original title of the nomination was ‘The introduction of novel biota and its impact on biodiversity’. The Committee changed the name of the nomination to ‘Novel biota and their impact on biodiversity’ to reflect that the threatening process is not restricted to only the introduction of novel biota. 1.3 Description of the process Since the arrival of the first non-Indigenous people to Australia, introduced novel biota have posed an ongoing threat to Australia’s unique environment and biodiversity. Invasive species are considered by biologists to have the second most destructive impact on native species and ecological communities after habitat destruction (Sanderlund et al., 1999, p 2; Coutts-Smith and Downey, 2006). Recognising the environmental impact of introduced species, the Convention on Biological Diversity, of which Australia is a signatory, aims in Article 8 (h) to ‘Prevent the introduction of, control or eradicate those alien species which threaten ecosystems, habitats or species’ (Convention on Biological Diversity, 1993).
