Pre-Request Response application 132008.176.02

RPS

Koala Offset Management Plan

It is anticipated that as part of any operational works application to effect the offset planting within the
prescribed timeframe, a Koala Offset Management Plan will be required. This plan will need to include:

® — Objectives and outcomes for koala habitat replacement / enhancement

® The proposed planting regime, ie. species, quantities and specific locations

Details regarding ongoing management and maintenance requirements;

s Monitoring and report requirements

Revised conditions of approval

In amending the conditions of approval for the proposed resort development on Lots 10 & 11, the
developer seeks comment from Council as to whether it is able to make appropriate recommendations to
the Planning & Environment Court based on one or both of the concepts provided herein.

If these concepts are supported in principle, it is recommended that a site inspection be arranged to
identify the specific areas where the offset planting of the various relevant species would be most
appropriate. From this a detailed plan can be prepared along with documentation demonstrating
compliance with the South East Queensland Koala Conservation State Planning Regulatory Provisions
on which to assist Council to support its recommendations.

If you require any further information and/or want to arrange the site inspection, please do not hesitate to
contact me on 0407 410 099,

Yours sincerely

Dr Justin Watson (Technical Director — Ecology)
