The pandemic has made essential self distancing and quarantining to arrest the spread of the Corona virus. As a result, most APS activities have been shelved for the time being. Being in isolation at home has been a mixed blessing.

  • Flora Translocation Strategy Pacific Highway Upgrade Sections 3-11 Excluding Early Works Soft Soil Treatment Areas Woolgoolga to Ballina
    W2B-RMS-0-EF-PLN-00039 Flora Translocation Strategy Pacific Highway Upgrade Sections 3-11 excluding Early Works Soft Soil Treatment Areas Woolgoolga to Ballina Version 3 April 2017 APRIL 2015 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY New South Wales Roads and Maritime Services are upgrading the Pacific Highway between Woolgoolga and Ballina on the NSW North Coast (the Project). The preparation of a translocation strategy for impacted threatened flora species i.e. listed on schedules of the NSW Threatened Species Conservation Act (TSC Act) and the Commonwealth Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999 (EPBC Act) is a requirement of the conditions of approval. The translocation strategy is complemented by an offset strategy offset package and offset status report. Impacts to threatened species will be fully offset. The translocation management actions detailed in this report are additional to offsets. The translocation strategy has been submitted in stages. A Translocation Strategy for Sections 1 and 2 of the Project (part of Stage 1) - was approved on 12 May 2015 and a strategy for Early Works Soft Soils Treatment Areas three waves of construction packaging making up the remainder of Stage 1 of the highway upgrade) was approved on 9 June 2015. The current strategy covers Sections 3 to 11 (excluding Early Works Soft Soils Treatment Areas. Sixteen species of threatened flora are identified as being directly impacted by the upgrade of Sections 3 to 11 (excluding Early Works Soft Soils Treatment Areas) and twelve are assessed as feasible for translocation. They are: Four-tailed Grevillea Grevillea quadricauda (Vulnerable TSC Act EPBC Act). Green-leaved rose walnut Endiandra muelleri subsp.
