The Report may only be used and relied on by CO2 for the purpose of informing environmental assessments and planning approvals for the proposed Project Sea Dragon (Purpose) and may not be used by, or relied on by any person other than CO2. The services undertaken by AES in connection with preparing the Report were limited to those specifically detailed in the Report. The Report is based on conditions encountered and information reviewed, including assumptions made by AES, at the time of preparing the Report. Assumptions made by AES are those stated throughout the Report. To the maximum extent permitted by law AES expressly disclaims responsibility for or liability arising from: •any error in, or omission in connection with assumptions, or •reliance on the Report by a third party, or use of this Report other than for the Purpose. CO2 Australia Executive Summary Seafarms Group Limited is proposing to develop Project Sea Dragon, a large fully integrated aquaculture project that will develop reliable, long-term and large scale production of black tiger prawns (Penaeus monodon). The main operations will be at the Grow-Out Facility (GOF) located on Legune Station, approximately 105 km north-east of Kununurra on the western border of the Northern Territory. This Terrestrial Flora Report is provided as part of an overall Environmental Impact Assessment (EIS) for the development of Stage 1 of the GOF, and reports on the findings of a desktop and field investigation into the terrestrial flora of the project area. The grow-out centre is the main part of the GOF area, and is proposed on an estuarine-deltaic plain (the Legune delta) of black cracking clay comprising the largest of its type in the NT, located between the estuaries of the Keep and Victoria Rivers. The vegetation on the Legune delta is characterised primarily by a mosaic of grasslands dominated by northern rice grass and canegrass, interspersed with ephemeral or seasonal wetland formed on playas and smaller areas of gilgai. To the south of the GOF, where service corridors are proposed, large areas of closed sedgeland and grassland fringe permanent wetland associated with Alligator Creek, interspersed with extensive grassland. The estuarine-deltaic plain is bordered to the north, east and west by a particularly extensive coastal plain, the second largest in northern Australia and the NT, comprised of a plain of mostly bare marine sediment patchily vegetated with samphire forbland and dissected by estuarine creeks fringed by low closed mangrove forest. A low coastal erosional plain is located to the south west of the GOF, over which the access road to Kununurra is located. This coastal erosional plain is characterised by Darwin stringybark and Darwin woollybutt woodland growing on sandy soils. Two near threatened species were recorded – but both do not occur within the project footprint and impacts are not expected to these species. In addition, three species listed as data deficient were detected within the project footprint - as populations of these species are likely to be present within the clearing footprint, pre-clearance population surveys are recommended in the habitats in which they occur. No species of conservation significance was detected from the GOF. A total of 20 vegetation communities were defined and mapped as a result of the field survey. Of these, two are considered likely to be partially groundwater dependent - Melaleuca open forest fringing Forsyth Creek, and elements of the M. dealbata woodland community on the Forsyth Creek floodplain and where it fringes the coastal erosional plain. However, this dependence is thought likely to be facultative. Eight species of declared weed were recorded, with the most common being hyptis (Hyptis suaveolens*) and spinyhead sida (Sida acuta*). Impacts to vegetation from this project are expected to be restricted to those experienced from clearing. In general, clearing impacts to vegetation communities in the project area will be moderate to negligible at the local scale, and minor to negligible at the bioregional and NT-wide scale. Potential land degradation impacts can be managed with appropriate planning and the implementation of soil conservation plans and sediment and erosion management measures. Impacts to fauna habitat associated with clearing and possible impacts to estuarine ecology from eutrophication as a result of wastewater disposal have been covered elsewhere in the EIS.

  • Grass Genera in Townsville
    Grass Genera in Townsville Nanette B. Hooker Photographs by Chris Gardiner SCHOOL OF MARINE and TROPICAL BIOLOGY JAMES COOK UNIVERSITY TOWNSVILLE QUEENSLAND James Cook University 2012 GRASSES OF THE TOWNSVILLE AREA Welcome to the grasses of the Townsville area. The genera covered in this treatment are those found in the lowland areas around Townsville as far north as Bluewater, south to Alligator Creek and west to the base of Hervey’s Range. Most of these genera will also be found in neighbouring areas although some genera not included may occur in specific habitats. The aim of this book is to provide a description of the grass genera as well as a list of species. The grasses belong to a very widespread and large family called the Poaceae. The original family name Gramineae is used in some publications, in Australia the preferred family name is Poaceae. It is one of the largest flowering plant families of the world, comprising more than 700 genera, and more than 10,000 species. In Australia there are over 1300 species including non-native grasses. In the Townsville area there are more than 220 grass species. The grasses have highly modified flowers arranged in a variety of ways. Because they are highly modified and specialized, there are also many new terms used to describe the various features. Hence there is a lot of terminology that chiefly applies to grasses, but some terms are used also in the sedge family. The basic unit of the grass inflorescence (The flowering part) is the spikelet. The spikelet consists of 1-2 basal glumes (bracts at the base) that subtend 1-many florets or flowers.

Description : A robust, perennial herb, 15-120 cm tall. Does not have stolons, and the rhizome is either very short or absent altogether. Stems are bluntly 3-angular, sometimes almost round, smooth, and with a diameter of up to 6 mm. The stem, leaves and sheath have numerous air-chambers. Leaves are 5-12 mm wide, stiff, deeply channelled, and as long as or shorter than the stem. Leaf edges and midrib are coarse towards the end of the leaf. Lower leaves are spongy and reddish-brown. Flowers are terminal and grouped in a large, up to 30 cm diameter umbrella-shaped cluster that has a reddish-brown colour. Large leaflets at the base of the flower cluster are up to 100 cm long. Spikelets (see illustration) are stemless and measure 5-15 by 1-1.5 mm. Ecology : Occurs in a variety of wetlands, including swamps, wet grasslands, coastal marshes, ditches, riverbanks, and occasionally in the landward margin of mangroves.

  • Legune Coastal Floodplain
    Legune coastal floodplain Location and Description Located between the mouths of the Victoria and Keep Rivers and 330 km south-west of Darwin in the Joseph Bonaparte Gulf, the Legune coastal floodplain is the western-most coastal floodplain in the Northern Territory. The floodplain extends across extensive tidal flats to Turtle Point in the north and includes a range of freshwater wetland habitats. Large areas of mangroves are associated with the major rivers and channels. Despite close proximity to major rivers, the catchment area for the floodplain system is relatively small being supplied by Forsyth Creek and other smaller unnamed creeks. This differs from other coastal floodplain systems in the Territory which are directly inundated by the river they are associated with. Tenure and Land Use Google Earth imagery This coastal floodplain is predominantly pastoral leasehold land within one pastoral property (Legune). The main land use within the Site is grazing of cattle on native pastures. Significance Rating International Significance Ecological Values The Legune wetlands comprise extensive areas of diverse freshwater and saline wetland habitat and are known to support more than 40 000 mixed waterbirds, mostly Wandering Whistling-Ducks and various egrets and herons. At least four waterbird breeding colonies have also been recorded on the floodplain, including the second largest waterbird colony in the Territory. Turtle Point supports high density nesting of the Flatback Turtles and significant aggregations of migratory shorebirds. Management Issues Grazing pressure from cattle can affect wetland habitats, especially where access is not restricted during wet periods. Any future expansion of the Ord irrigation scheme is likely to affect the lower Keep River, which may have some impacts on the Legune floodplain.

  • DRAFT 25/10/90; Plant List Updated Oct. 1992; Notes Added June 2021
    DRAFT 25/10/90; plant list updated Oct. 1992; notes added June 2021. PRELIMINARY REPORT ON THE CONSERVATION VALUES OF OPEN COUNTRY PADDOCK, BOOLARDY STATION Allan H. Burbidge and J.K. Rolfe INTRODUCTION Boolardy Station is situated about 150 km north of Yalgoo and 140 km west-north-west of Cue, in the Shire of Murchison, Western Australia. Open Country Paddock (about 16 000 ha) is in the south-east corner of the station, at 27o05'S, 116o50'E. The most prominent named feature is Coolamooka Hill, near the eastern boundary of the paddock. There are no conservation reserves in this region, although there are some small reserves set aside for various other purposes. Previous biological data for the station consist of broad scale vegetation mapping and land system mapping. Beard (1976) mapped the entire Murchison region at 1: 1 000 000. The Open Country Paddock area was mapped as supporting mulga woodlands and shrublands. More detailed mapping of land system units for rangeland assessment purposes has been carried out more recently at a scale of 1: 40 000 (Payne and Curry in prep.). Seven land systems were identified in open Country Paddock (Fig. 1). Apart from these studies, no detailed biological survey work appears to have been done in the area. Open Country Paddock has been only lightly grazed by domestic stock because of the presence of Kite-leaf Poison (Gastrolobium laytonii) and a lack of fresh water. Because of this and the generally good condition of the paddock and presence of a wide range of plant species, P.J.
