Declared Rare and Priority Flora List DECLARED RARE AND PRIORITY FLORA LIST for Western Australia · KJ Atkins 20 December 1999 DEPARTMENT OF CONSERVATION AND LAND MANAGEMENT THE DEPARTMENT OF CONSERVATION AND LAND MANAGEMENT DECLARED RARE AND PRIORITY FLORA LIST for Western Australia CONSERVATION CODES R: Declared Rare Flora- Extant Taxa Taxa which have been adequately searched for and are deemed to be in the wild either rare, in danger of extinction, or otherwise in need of special protection, and have been gazetted as such. X: Declared Rare Flora - Presumed Extinct Taxa Taxa which have not been collected, or otherwise verified, over the past 50 years despite thorough searching, or of which all known wild populations have been destroyed more recently, and have been gazetted as such. 1: Priority One - Poorly known Taxa Taxa which are known from one or a few (generally <5) populations which are under threat, either due to small population size, or being on lands under immediate threat, e.g. road verges, urban areas, farmland, active mineral leases, etc., or the plants are under threat, e.g. from disease, grazing by feral animals, etc. May include taxa with threatened populations on protected lands. Such taxa are under consideration for declaration as 'rare flora', but are in urgent need of further survey. 2: Priority Two - Poorly Known Taxa Taxa which are known from one or a few (generally <5) populations, at least some of which are not believed to be under immediate threat (i.e. not currently endangered). Such taxa are under consideration for declaration as 'rare flora', but are in urgent need of further survey. 3: Priority Three- Poorly Known Taxa Taxa which are known from several populations, and the taxa are not believed to be under immediate threat (i.e. not currently endangered), either due to the number of known populations (generally >5), or known populations being large, and either widespread or protected. Such taxa are under consideration for declaration as 'rare flora' but are in need of further survey. 4: Priority Four- Rare Taxa Taxa which are considered to have been adequately surveyed and which, whilst being rare (in Australia), are not currently threatened by any identifiable factors. These taxa require monitoring every 5-l 0 years. Note, the need for further survey of poorly known taxa is prioritised into the three categories depending on the perceived urgency for determining the conservation status of those taxa, as indicated by the apparent degree of threat to the taxa based on the current information. 2 * = species which also occur outside Western Australia x = species presumed to be the result of hybridization ms = manuscript names. These names have not been published and must be indicated as being manuscript names whenever used, either by the standard fonnat of the addition of ms after the name, or the inclusion in inverted commas.

    ASSESSMENT OF WETLAND INVERTEBRATE AND FISH BIODIVERSITY FOR THE GNANGARA SUSTAINABILITY STRATEGY (GSS) Bea Sommer, Pierre Horwitz and Pauline Hewitt Centre for Ecosystem Management Edith Cowan University, Joondalup WA 6027 Final Report to the Western Australian Department of Environment and Conservation November 2008 Assessment of wetland invertebrate and fish biodiversity for the GSS (Final Report) November 2008 This document has been commissioned/produced as part of the Gnangara Sustainability Strategy (GSS). The GSS is a State Government initiative which aims to provide a framework for a whole of government approach to address land use and water planning issues associated with the Gnangara groundwater system. For more information go to www.gnangara.water.wa.gov.au i Assessment of wetland invertebrate and fish biodiversity for the GSS (Final Report) November 2008 Executive Summary This report sought to review existing sources of information for aquatic fauna on the Gnangara Mound in order to: • provide a synthesis of the richness, endemism, rarity and habitat specificity of aquatic invertebrates in wetlands; • identify gaps in aquatic invertebrate data on the Gnangara Mound; • provide a synthesis of the status of freshwater fishes on the Gnangara Mound; • assess the management options for the conservation of wetlands and wetland invertebrates. The compilation of aquatic invertebrate taxa recorded from wetlands on both the Gnangara Mound and Jandakot Mound) between 1977 and 2003, from 18 studies of 66 wetlands, has revealed a surprisingly high richness considering the comparatively small survey area and the degree of anthropogenic alteration of the plain. The total of over 550 taxa from 176 families or higher order taxonomic levels could be at least partially attributed to sampling effort.

  • Environmental Guidance for Planning and Development
    Part A Environmental protection and land use planning in Western Australia Environmental Guidance for Part B Biophysical factors Planning and Development Part C Pollution management May 2008 Part D Social surroundings Guidance Statement No. 33 2007389-0508-50 Foreword The Environmental Protection Authority (EPA) is an independent statutory authority and is the key provider of independent environmental advice to Government. The EPA’s objectives are to protect the environment and to prevent, control and abate pollution and environmental harm. The EPA aims to achieve some of this through the development of environmental protection guidance statements for the environmental impact assessment (EIA) of proposals. This document is one in a series being issued by the EPA to assist proponents, consultants and the public generally to gain additional information about the EPA’s thinking in relation to aspects of the EIA process. The series provides the basis for EPA’s evaluation of, and advice on, proposals under S38 and S48A of the Environmental Protection Act 1986 (EP Act) subject to EIA. The guidance statements are one part of assisting proponents, decision-making authorities and others in achieving environmentally acceptable outcomes. Consistent with the notion of continuous environmental improvement and adaptive environmental management, the EPA expects proponents to take all reasonable and practicable measures to protect the environment and to view the requirements of this Guidance as representing the minimum standards necessary. The main purposes of this EPA guidance statement are: • to provide information and advice to assist participants in land use planning and development processes to protect, conserve and enhance the environment • to describe the processes the EPA may apply under the EP Act to land use planning and development in Western Australia, and in particular to describe the environmental impact assessment (EIA) process applied by the EPA to schemes.

  • Managing the Water Resources of the Arrowsmith Groundwater Area, Wa
    The Water and Rivers Commission is amalgamating with the Department of Environmental Protection to form the Department of Environment, Water and Catchment Protection MANAGING THE WATER RESOURCES OF THE ARROWSMITH GROUNDWATER AREA, WA Interim Sub-Regional Allocation Strategy Prepared by Resource Allocation Branch of Resource Management Division and Midwest Gascoyne Region January 2002 ISBN: 0-7309-7576-2 Managing the Water Resources in the Arrowsmith Groundwater Area, WA – Interim Sub-Regional Allocation Strategy SUMMARY The groundwater resources of the Arrowsmith Groundwater Area are either fully allocated or approaching full allocation in some subareas. Demand in recent years for licences to explore and take groundwater has been increasing in some subareas to a level that cannot be sustained in the long term. In recognition of the need to manage this increasing demand, the Department of Environment, Water and Catchment Protection (DEWCP) will develop a Sub-Regional Groundwater Management Plan for the Arrowsmith Groundwater Area in consultation with the community and the proposed Midwest Water Resources Management Committee. The new Plan will address the environmental requirements and include full community consultation consistent with the amended Rights in Water and Irrigation Act (1914). The Department has drafted this Interim Allocation Strategy to manage the groundwater resources in the period prior to implementation of the new Plan. This Interim Allocation Strategy is the first review of the 1995 Groundwater Area Management Plan and reports on the issues and topics related to the management of the groundwater resources in the Arrowsmith Groundwater Area. In particular, it will ensure the groundwater resources are managed at the appropriate level in the interim.

To compile a comprehensive profile of the contemporary social environment of the East Kimberley region utilising both existing information sources and limited fieldwork. 2. Develop and utilise appropriate methodological approaches to social impact assessment within a multi-disciplinary framework. 3. Assess the social impact of major public and private developments of the East Kimberley region's resources (physical, mineral and environmental) on resident Aboriginal communities. Attempt to identify problems/issues which, while possibly dormant at present, are likely to have implications that will affect communities at some stage in the future. 4. Establish a framework to allow the dissemination of research results to Aboriginal communities so as to enable them to develop their own strategies for dealing with social impact issues. 5. To identify in consultation with Governments and regional interests issues and problems which may be susceptible to further research.
