ISBN 978 1 74232 258 2 DECC 2009/332 FOREWORD Sherwood Nature Reserve is located approximately 40 kilometres south-east of Grafton in northern NSW and encompasses 5,904 hectares. Sherwood Nature Reserve is part of a regionally important system of protected areas and conserves plant species and communities representative of the Kangaroo Creek sandstone geology as well as a regionally significant sub-tropical rainforest remnant and locally significant old growth forest. There are 32 plant species of conservation significance recorded in the reserve, including 11 species listed under the Threatened Species Conservation Act. The varied vegetation communities support a diverse range of resident vertebrate fauna, and provides important seasonal habitat for a number of nomadic and migratory species. More than 50 species of conservation significance are recorded or predicted to occur in the reserve. Apart from numerous cultural sites and stories relating to ceremonial complexes, an Aboriginal Place known as Miimiga Gaungan is located within the southern portion of the reserve.

  • Northern Rivers Regional Biodiversity Management Plan
    Foreword The Northern Rivers Regional Biodiversity Management Plan (the Plan) constitutes the national regional recovery plan under the Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999 for threatened species and ecological communities principally distributed in the Northern Rivers Region of NSW. The Plan is part of an Australian Government-funded pilot to trial the integration of regional recovery and threat abatement planning. It provides a regional approach to the delivery of recovery actions necessary to ensure the long-term viability of threatened species and ecological communities in the Region. The Northern Rivers Region is an area relatively rich in biodiversity data. This has allowed for innovative and sophisticated analysis techniques to be used in this Plan for biodiversity assessment and identification of priority areas for conservation works. These outputs will help guide investment by the Australian Government, New South Wales Government and local authorities in the Region. Collaboration and partnerships will be essential for the implementation of the Plan. The Plan considers all threats affecting biodiversity in the Region, including those associated with the potential impacts of climate change. The Plan also incorporates Indigenous cultural values and considerations into biodiversity management in the Region. It is in this context that the Plan, in association with the approved Border Ranges Rainforest Biodiversity Management Plan (DECCW 2010), sets out an overall strategy for the conservation and restoration

  • Context Statement for the Clarence-Moreton Bioregion, PDF, 9.16 MB
    1 Context statement for the Clarence-Moreton bioregion Product 1.1 from the Clarence-Moreton Bioregional Assessment 28 May 2014 A scientific collaboration between the Department of the Environment, Bureau of Meteorology, CSIRO and Geoscience Australia The Bioregional Assessment Programme The Bioregional Assessment Programme is a transparent and accessible programme of baseline assessments that increase the available science for decision making associated with coal seam gas and large coal mines. A bioregional assessment is a scientific analysis of the ecology, hydrology, geology and hydrogeology of a bioregion with explicit assessment of the potential direct, indirect and cumulative impacts of coal seam gas and large coal mining development on water resources. This Programme draws on the best available scientific information and knowledge from many sources, including government, industry and regional communities, to produce bioregional assessments that are independent, scientifically robust, and relevant and meaningful at a regional scale. The Programme is funded by the Australian Government Department of the Environment. The Department of the Environment, Bureau of Meteorology, CSIRO and Geoscience Australia are collaborating to undertake bioregional assessments. For more information, visit <www.bioregionalassessments.gov.au>. Department of the Environment The Office of Water Science, within the Australian Government Department of the Environment, is strengthening the regulation of coal seam gas and large coal mining development by ensuring that future decisions are informed by substantially improved science and independent expert advice about the potential water related impacts of those developments. For more information, visit <www.environment.gov.au/coal-seam-gas-mining/>. Bureau of Meteorology The Bureau of Meteorology is Australia’s national weather, climate and water agency.
