Its natural integrity, with large areas unaffected by logging, contains a range of endangered and of concern communities, including significant examples of notophyll vine forests along upper catchment creek lines, and habitat for rare and threatened plants and birds. Maintenance of the aquatic ecosystems to protect threatened or endemic species including the giant barred frog, cascade tree frog, tusked frog, the giant spiny crayfish and the rainforest crayfish will be a priority. The park will provide a high quality water catchment and scenic backdrop to the rapidly developing Sunshine Coast hinterland, Caboolture and Kilcoy. Visitors can enjoy an accessible, regenerating natural area for nature-based recreation opportunities, including sustainable motorised recreation. Conservation purpose Bellthorpe National Park was gazetted in 2010. It was originally Bellthorpe State Forest prior to its transfer to Bellthorpe Forest Reserve 1 and 2 under the South East Queensland Forests Agreement (SEQFA) in 2003.

The solar panels, wind turbines and rainwater tanks that power and quench this island are hidden from view. And the beach shacks are illusory, for though Pumpkin Island has been used by families and fishermen since 1964, it has been recently reimagined by managers Wayne and Laureth Rumble as a stylish, eco- conscious island escape. The couple has incorporated all the elements of a casual beach holiday – troughs in which to rinse your sandy feet, barbecues on which to grill freshly caught fish and shucking knives for easy dislodgement of oysters from the nearby rocks – without sacrificing any modern comforts. Pumpkin Island’s seven self-catering cottages and bungalows (accommodating up to six people) are distinguished from one another by unique decorative touches: candy-striped deckchairs slung from hooks on a distressed weatherboard wall; linen bedclothes in this cottage, waffle-weave in that; mint-green accents here, blue over there.

    Office of the Inspector-General Emergency Management GPO Box 1425, Mail Cluster 15.7 BRISBANE, QLD 4001 [email protected] I agree to my submission being treated as outlined in the “Guide to providing submissions” on the IGEM website. Dear Office of the Inspector-General Emergency Management Review Team, Thank you for the opportunity to comment on the 2018 Queensland Bushfires Review. This submission is made on behalf of the Queensland Conservation Council Inc. (QCC). QCC was established in 1969 and is the peak environment conservation organisation in Queensland, with some 50-member groups including ten regional councils, as well as thousands of supporters. We note that the review is focused on key preparedness and response elements for both bushfires and hot weather events, with scope to reflect on the heatwaves in Far North Queensland in November 2018. QCC recognises the tragedy of recent extreme weather events, with loss of life, extensive property damage and the loss of areas of the state’s natural heritage that will take hundreds of years to recover. The cumulative impacts of climate change, including unprecedented extreme temperatures and increased variability in rainfall that have led to the warming and drying of previously humid, subtropical areas1. Further information on this issue can be found in the Climate Council’s recent report Escalating Queensland Bushfire Threat: ​ Interim conclusions and Be prepared: Climate Change and the Queensland Bushfire threat. ​ ​ ​ The impacts of climate change have destabilised Queensland’s historically fire resilient rainforests such as those in the Eungella National Park and Deepwater National Park and led to the catastrophic fire conditions experienced.
