7.4           Wildlife Online
Results of the Wildlife Online Database search are presented in Appendix C. The search was undertaken for a
5 km radius from the centre of the proposed Site. Results of the search included 1621 different species
recorded within a 5 km radius of the site. Of the species recorded the following numbers were identified as
significant under the NC Act;

     9 Vulnerable,

     3 Endangered and

     5 Near Threatened plant species
The above species are presented in Table 3 with an assessment for the potential for them to occur within the
site. This is based on habitat values actually occurring on the site and those habitat values considered
requirements of the species.
