EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
PLACE Environmental was engaged by Blue Care Pty Ltd to prepare an Ecological Assessment Report to
address relevant Commonwealth, State and Local Government environmental planning policies in
regard to a proposed master plan and stage one construction of an aged care development at Grasstree
Court, Sunrise Beach. The total subject site is comprised of Lot 6 RP901384 and lot 1 SP177650. The
subject site is located in the Local Government Area of Sunshine Coast Regional Council (specifically the
former Noosa Council) and comprises a total area of approximately 136.79 ha. The area affected by
development includes Lot 6 RP901384 and proposed lot 9, which is currently part of Lot 1 SP177650
(totalling a development area of 5.53 ha). Grasstree Court provides access to the development area.
The aims of this assessment are to:
x Assess the validity of the various environmental protection designations;
x Identify other items of ecological significance on the site or in the locality which may affect the
manner or extent to which the site is developed, and advise the design team of a suitable
development strategy;
x Suggest means of ameliorating development impacts; and
x Address relevant Commonwealth, State and Local Government planning policies, and ensure
compliance.
The site is located in the west of Sunrise Beach between the existing residential area and Noosa National
Park. The Sunshine Beach State High School is located immediately to the north of the site while the
large southern lot is also bounded to the south by the national park. A small community shopping
centre is located adjacent to the north east corner of the site and a church is located at the western end
of Grasstree Court. The area slopes to the west towards Burgess Creek located within the Noosa
National Park. The geology of the site is coastal sand deposits.
Under The Noosa Plan (2006) the majority of the southern half of the site is zoned as Open Space
Conservation. The Open Space Conservation Zone generally excludes development or the subdivision of
freehold lots. The development area occurs outside of this zone. The remainder of the site is zoned as
Community Services. The development intent within this zone is consistent with the overall outcomes of
the Community Services zone, as it qualifies as multiple housing Type 3. The SEQ Regional Plan
designates Lot 6 RP901384 as within the Urban Footprint under the SEQ Regional Plan. The northern
portion of Lot 1 SP177650 is also designated as Urban Footprint, with the balance of Lot 1 classified as
Regional Landscape and Rural Production Area.
Under the Nature Conservation (Koala) Conservation Plan 2006 and Management Program 2006-2016
the development area is classified as Urban Koala Area and Koala Sustainability Area.
The Regional Ecosystem Map for the locality indicates that much of the subject site is mapped as an
indiscernible combination (50:50) of Regional Ecosystem 12.2.9 and 12.2.13. The balance of the
investigation area is currently mapped as non-remnant vegetation. These areas represent parcels of
land immediately associated with Grass Tree Court and established infrastructure.
While the proposed development will result in loss of disturbed native vegetation, this outcome has
been envisaged by the Planning Scheme (which designates the area proposed for development as
suitable for this purpose). The Site’s most significant habitats (in the south) will be retained, as will a
buffer to Noosa National Park.

1.0 BACKGROUND, SITE PLANNING CONTEXT & PURPOSE OF THIS REPORT
1.1 Overview
PLACE Environmental was engaged by Blue Care Pty Ltd to prepare an Ecological Assessment Report to
address relevant Commonwealth, State and Local Government environmental planning policies in
regard to a proposed master plan and stage 1 construction of an aged care development at Grasstree
Court, Sunrise Beach. The total subject site is comprised of Lot 6 RP901384 and Lot 1 SP177650. The
subject site is located in the Local Government Area of Sunshine Coast Regional Council (specifically the
former Noosa Council) and comprises a total area of approximately 5.53 ha. The area affected by
development, hereon referred to as the “Development Area”, includes Lot 6 RP901384 and proposed
lot 9, which is currently part of Lot 1 SP177650. Grasstree Court provides access to the development
area (Figure 1).
The aims of this assessment are to:
x Assess the validity of the various environmental protection designations applied to the Site;
x Identify other items of ecological significance on the site or in the locality which may affect the
manner or extent to which the site is developed, and advise the design team of a suitable
development strategy;
x Suggest means of ameliorating development impacts; and
x Address relevant Commonwealth, State and Local Government planning policies, and ensure
compliance.
1.2 Existing Environment
The site is located in the west of Sunrise Beach between the existing residential area and Noosa National
Park. The Sunshine Beach State High School is located immediately to the north of the site while the
large southern lot is also bounded to the south by the national park. A small community shopping
centre is located adjacent to the north east corner of the site and a church is located at the western end
of Grasstree Court. The area slopes to the west towards Burgess Creek located within the Noosa
National Park. The geology of the site is coastal sand deposits.
Under the Sunshine Coast Regional Council’s Plan (2008) the majority of the southern half of the site is
zoned as Open Space Conservation (Figure 2). The overall outcomes of this zone are that existing
natural values are protected so that they can contribute to ecological sustainability—including the
maintenance of water quality and the provision of habitat and open space linkages. The Open Space
Conservation Zone also generally excludes development or the subdivision of freehold lots; however this
zone occurs largely outside of the development area (Figure 1).
The remainder of the site is zoned as Community Services in which the intent is to protect and manage
community infrastructure and uses; and provide for the infrastructure, indoor recreation, education,
social and safety needs of the local community, including people with special needs (Figure 2). The
development intent within this zone is consistent with the overall outcomes of the Community Services
zone, because an aged care facility qualifies as multiple housing Type 3 - Retirement and Special Needs,
according to the residential use and use classes (s2.11.5).
The SEQ Regional Plan designates Lot 6 RP901384 as both within the Urban Footprint under the SEQ
Regional Plan. Areas within the Urban Footprint have been identified to accommodate urban growth to
2026. The northern portion of Lot 1 SP177650 is also designated as Urban Footprint, with the balance
of Lot 1 classified as Regional Landscape and Rural Production Area. Generally the Regional Landscape
and Rural Production Area identifies land with values that should be protected from urban and rural
residential development. No development will be occurring within these areas zoned as Regional
Landscape and Rural Production Areas.

The subject site also triggers various levels of development constraint under the Nature Conservation
(Koala) Conservation Plan 2006 and Management Program 2006-2016 (Figure 3). Lot 6 RP901384 falls
within the KCA: Urban Koala Area. The northern part of Lot 1 SP177650 is classified as Koala
Sustainability Area. The southern part of Lot 1 SP177650, which is located outside of the development
area, is classified as Koala Conservation Area. The remainder of the area proposed for development is
identified as Urban Koala Area.
The subject site is mapped by the department of Natural Resources and Water (NRW) as containing a
mix of dominant “Of Concern” Remnant Vegetation and “not of concern” vegetation. The RE mapping
is discussed in chapter 2.2 of this report. The mapping indicates that the vegetation provides essential
habitat for a range of species listed under the Nature Conservation (Wildlife) Regulation.
1.3 Data Bases Consulted
In order to ascertain the range of species that could potentially occur on the site, should suitable habitat
be identified, a review of the Wildnet (Queensland Environmental Protection Agency) and the Protected
1
Matters Databases (Commonwealth Department of Environment and Heritage) indicate that a range of
state and nationally significant species (and/or their habitats) potentially occur in this locality. Further
details are provided in Appendices A & B respectively.

2.0 SITE ASSESSMENT
2.1 Methodology
2.1.1 Review of Existing Data
Before the commencement of field surveys, the following documents and databases were reviewed to
develop a working list of target species and potential management issues:
o Review of Noosa Shire Planning Scheme 2006 as has been described in Section 1;
o Review of the Regional Ecosystem mapping for the area as discussed in Section 2.2;
o The occurrence of significant plants, plant communities and fauna is discussed in Section 2.2;
o The koala management area mapping as per the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Nature
Conservation (Koala) Conservation Management Program 2006-2016;
o The EPA Wildnet and the EPBC Act Database were reviewed to determine the occurrence of
threatened species in this locality. Search results are provided in Appendices A & B; and
2.1.2 Field Surveys
Flora
The survey methodology utilised for this site was a “walk-through, total species” account. A total of
three (3) hours was spent on site. Species percentage was not recorded, but instead dominance of
emergent, understorey and groundcover species was noted. Within the appendices to this report,
species are graded as to their occurrence on site. Community descriptions are based on the classification
system of Walker and Hopkins (1990). The extent of each vegetation community is shown in FIGURE 6
and generally reflects current EPA mapping.
Fauna
The primary goal of the survey was to assess the potential occurrence of, and likely impacts of
development to, terrestrial fauna. Survey efforts were targeted to determine the likely occurrence of
fauna species listed as threatened under Commonwealth and Queensland legislation. Determining the
suitability of the site for threatened fauna provides an indication of the overall habitat values of the site
for a wider range of species. Surveys were conducted during January and February 2007.
Techniques employed to determine the sites habitat values included trapping, observations and habitat
assessment. An outline of survey effort and specific techniques employed for each fauna group is
provided below:
Method Survey effort
Elliot trapping 200 trap nights
Cage trapping 12 trap nights
Hair tubes 160 trap nights
Diurnal searches 40 hours
Dawn surveys 4 hours
Anabat surveys 8 hours
Call playback 4 hours
Nocturnal searches 8 hours

Page 15
Amphibians
Pitfall trapping, diurnal searches of shelter habitat, nocturnal searches using spotlight while traversing
suitable habitat on foot and listening for frog calls. Habitat assessment was also conducted.
Reptiles
Pitfall trapping, diurnal searches of shelter habitat and for basking and foraging reptiles along tracks,
nocturnal searches using spotlight while traversing suitable habitat on foot. Habitat assessment was
also conducted.
Birds
Dawn bird surveys using binoculars and listening for bird calls, diurnal searches of suitable habitat, call
playback surveys, nocturnal searches using spotlight while traversing suitable habitat on foot. Habitat
assessment was also conducted.
Mammals
Elliot traps, cage traps, hair tubes, pitfall traps, diurnal searches for shelter habitat, call playback surveys,
anabat bat call recording, nocturnal searches using spotlight while traversing suitable habitat on foot.
Habitat assessment was also conducted.
2.1.3 Climate and other limitations
Conditions during the survey period were generally hot, dry and sunny. The intensity of wind and cloud
cover varied only slightly during the survey period. Conditions in the weeks leading up to the survey
were much the same as those experienced during the survey period, although some rain fell in the
weekend immediately prior to the survey.
Climatic and other limitations for each fauna group are discussed below:
Amphibians
Climatic conditions during the survey period were not optimal for detecting amphibians. Surveys for
this group should be conducted following extended rainfall periods. Timing of the survey was suitable,
as most amphibians are more active during the warmer summer months. Timing of the survey may
have been sub-optimal for detecting Wallum Froglets (Crinia tinnula) which are generally acknowledged
to be a winter breeding species. However, Wallum Froglets have also been observed calling in response
to rainfall events during the summer months (pers. obs.).
Reptiles
Climatic conditions during the survey period were suitable for detecting reptiles. Timing of the survey
was suitable for most reptile species, as reptiles are generally more active during the warmer summer
months.
Birds
Climatic conditions during the survey period were suitable for detecting most bird species, including
summer migratory species. Timing of the survey was unsuitable for detecting winter blossom migrants
(Swift Parrot, Lathamus discolor) and nomads (Regent Honeyeater, Xanthomyza phrygia). Most records
of Black-chinned Honeyeater (Melithreptus gularis) from the region are also during the winter months
(Birds Queensland 2007).
Mammals
Climatic conditions during the survey period were suitable for detecting mammals. Timing of the survey
was suitable for most mammal species.
One limitation during the survey period was the constraint on establishing trapping transects along the
narrow powerline easement (forming part of Lot 1 SP177650) through Noosa National Park. This
easement is the only part of the site containing an example of low wet and dry heathland. The
easement is currently used by the public as a walking track, and Elliot traps and pitfalls along the
easement would have presented a significant risk of injury or theft.

2.2 Regional Ecosystem Mapping
The Regional Ecosystem Map for the locality indicates that the site supports areas of Remnant Regional
Ecosystems. Much of the subject site is mapped as an indiscernible combination (50:50) of Regional
Ecosystem 12.2.9 and 12.2.13 which are described as follows:
RE 12.2.9 - Banksia aemula low shrubby woodland. Mallee eucalypts sometimes present, e.g. Eucalyptus
latisinensis. Occurs on Quaternary coastal dunes and sand plains with deeply leached soils;
RE 12.2.13 - Open or dry heath. Characteristic shrubs include Leptospermum spp., Leucopogon spp.,
Ricinocarpos pinifolius, Strangea linearis, Brachyloma daphnoides, Persoonia virgata, Xanthorrhoea spp.,
Styphelia viridis, Monotoca scoparia, Woollsia pungens and stunted Allocasuarina littoralis. Occurs on
Quaternary coastal dunes and beaches. Sand plains. Major vegetation communities include 12.2.13a -
Closed heathland dominated by Leptospermum juniperinum, L. liversidgei, L. polygalifolia or Baeckea
frutescens, with emergent Melaleuca quinquenervia. Occurs on Quaternary coastal dunes and beaches.
Greater than 90% of the investigation area supports this vegetation. The predominant distribution
occurs to the southeast of Grass Tree Court. This community has a Vegetation Management Act 1999
conservation status listing as “Of Concern” and is afforded Environmental Protection status under the
Eastern Beaches Overlay (OM4.1), Noosa Shire Council.
Mapped remnant vegetation also occurs to the immediate west of the aforementioned community. This
area supports a combination (70:30) of Regional Ecosystem 12.2.15 and 12.2.12 which are described as
follows:
RE 12.2.15 - Coastal sedgeland with Baumea spp., Juncus spp. Lepironia articulata, Gahnia spp. and
Eleocharis spp. and associated water bodies. Occurs on Quaternary coastal dunes and beaches. Low part
of coastal landscape where water collects from both overland flow and infiltration from adjoining sand
dunes. Major vegetation communities include:
12.2.15a: Associated permanent water bodies. Occurs on Quaternary coastal dunes and beaches. Low
part of coastal landscape where water collects from both overland flow and infiltration from
adjoining sand dunes.
12.2.15b: Lepironia articulata closed-sedgeland. Occurs on Quaternary coastal dunes and beaches.
Low part of coastal landscape where water collects from both overland flow and infiltration
from adjoining sand dunes.
12.2.15c: Cladium procerum closed-sedgeland. Occurs on Quaternary coastal dunes and beaches. Low
part of coastal landscape where water collects from both overland flow and infiltration from
adjoining sand dunes.
12.2.15d: Baumea rubiginosa closed-sedgeland, with Cyclosorus interruptus and Blechnum indicum.
Occurs on Quaternary coastal dunes and beaches. Low part of coastal landscape where
water collects from both overland flow and infiltration from adjoining sand dunes.
12.2.15e: Leersia hexandra closed-grassland. Occurs on Quaternary coastal dunes and beaches. Low
part of coastal landscape where water collects from both overland flow and infiltration from
adjoining sand dunes.
RE 12.2.12 - Closed or wet heath ± stunted emergent shrubs/low trees. Characteristic shrubs include
Banksia spp. (especially B. robur) Boronia falcifolia, Epacris spp., Baeckea frutescens, Schoenus
brevifolius, Leptospermum spp., Hakea actites, Melaleuca thymifolia, Xanthorrhoea fulva with Baloskion
spp. and Sporadanthus spp. in ground layer. Occurs on poorly drained Quaternary coastal dunes and
sand plains. Low part of sand mass coastal landscapes where water collects from both overland flow
and infiltration from adjoining sand dunes. Major vegetation communities include:
12.2.12a: Empodisma minus, Baumea rubiginosa, Epacris microphylla closed-heathland with emergent
low shrubs of Leptospermum liversidgei. Occurs on poorly drained Quaternary coastal dunes

and sand plains. Low part of sand mass coastal landscapes where water collects from both
overland flow and infiltration from adjoining sand dunes.
12.2.12b: Xanthorrhoea fulva wet heathland. Occurs on Poorly drained Quaternary coastal dunes and
sand plains. Low part of sand mass coastal landscapes where water collects from both
overland flow and infiltration from adjoining sand dunes.
Except for a small pocket located within the north-western corner, this association occurs beyond the
western boundary of the investigation area. This community has a Vegetation Management Act 1999
conservation status listing as “Not of Concern” but is awarded Environmental Protection under the
Eastern Beaches Overlay (OM4.1), Noosa Shire Council.
The balance of the investigation area is currently mapped as non-remnant vegetation. These areas
represent parcels of land immediately associated with Grass Tree Court and established infrastructure.
2.3 Vegetation Community Descriptions
Within the investigation area five distinct vegetation communities were identified. These are as follows:
Community 1 – Open/Dry Heath on Coastal Dunes
This community dominates the central and southern portions of the site and is comprised of an
indiscernible combination of vegetation types characteristic of Regional Ecosystems 12.2.9 and 12.2.13
(PLATE 1).
A representative list of flora species is contained in Appendix C.
The community is relatively devoid of non-indigenous flora (weeds), with most notable incursion
occurring within the northern extent of the community, where considerable clearing of vegetation has
occurred, and along most edges, including internal trails. Representation of all strata was recorded and
the community is regarded as relatively intact and would most likely satisfy the criterion for remnant
status. This concurs with current EPA mapping of the investigation area.
The northern extent also appears to have undergone successive high intensity, unrestricted fire regimes.
At the time of assessment the community was found to be devoid of non-indigenous flora and in the
initial stages of recovery with marked and diverse recruitment of characteristic species. Given the
opportunity to fully recover this area would satisfy the criterion of remnant status.
Specimens of Gompholobium virgatum var. emarginatum [Rare] were identified throughout this
community.
Grasstree Court, Sunrise Beach Ecological Assessment Report (BCR02) PLACE Environmental
Page 11
Page 18
PLATE 1 - Open/Dry Heath
Community 2 – Closed Wet Heath/Sedgeland on Coastal Dunes
This community occurs within a small pocket in the north-western corner and along the immediate
western boundary of the investigation area upon an area of moister, lowland soil. As with Community
1, this association represents a combination of vegetation types and is characteristic of Regional
Ecosystem 12.2.15 and 12.2.12. (PLATE 2).
A representative list of flora species is contained in Appendix C.
The community is generally devoid of non-indigenous flora (weeds), with most notable incursion
occurring along a number of internal trails. Groundsel Bush occurs infrequently within the north –
western pocket of vegetation and but frequently in association with Typha and Common Lantana within
Burgess Creek. Representation of all strata was recorded and the wet heath component of the
community is regarded as relatively intact and would most likely satisfy the criterion for remnant status.
This concurs with current EPA mapping of the investigation area. The sedgeland component of the
community is generally far removed from the edge of the site and is instead associated with floodplains
of Burgess Creek. The community appears to have been markedly altered through a combination of
nutrient pollution and increased pH levels.

PLATE 2 - Closed or Wet Heath/Sedgeland
Community 3 – Disturbed Open Heath on Coastal Dunes
This community occurs on Lot 6 on RP901384 and Lot 5 on RP890947 which are located to the north
and west of Grasstree Court respectively. The community is characteristic of Community 1 but is
predominantly regrowth in structure and comprises an altered distribution of representative species
(PLATE 3). Uncontrolled fire, unrestricted anthropogenic and vehicular access, previous land clearing
and dumping of refuse have exacerbated the decline of natural integrity within this community.
Although no flora species of conservation significance were identified at the time of initial assessment,
thorough investigation is recommended.
A representative list of flora species is contained in Appendix C.
The community is degraded with non-indigenous flora (weeds), with most notable incursion occurring
along a number of internal trails and all edges. Exotic grasses and Common Lantana are the dominant
disturbance species. A distinct lack of representation of all strata was recorded and non representative
species such as Black Wattle dominate the upper stratum. The community would not satisfy the criterion
for remnant status. This concurs with current EPA mapping of the investigation area. Despite this the
portion of vegetation to the immediate west of the Uniting Church presents in reasonable condition and
is not far removed from satisfying the criterion of remnant status. The southern portion of vegetation on
Lot 6 presents in similar condition.

This community occurs to the immediate north of Lot 6 on RP901384 and Lot 5 on RP890947. The
community is heavily degraded and represents the opportunism of non-indigenous flora (PLATE 4).
Situated within a mechanically altered drainage line that has been filled with boulders, the community is
dominated by Common Lantana, Broad-leaved Pepper Tree, Signal Grass, Elephant Grass, Molasses
Grass, Balsam Lily, Groundsel Bush, Typha and Glycine. Upper stratum species such as Broad-leaved
Paperbark, Macaranga, Black She-Oak and Black Wattle occur sporadically throughout. Although no
flora species of conservation significance were identified at the time of initial assessment, thorough
investigation is recommended.
A representative list of flora species is contained in Appendix C.
The community is heavily degraded and as such not representative of any described Regional Ecosystem.
This concurs with current EPA mapping of the investigation area.

2.4 Fauna Communities
2.4.1 Background
The results of the fauna survey indicate that the site continues to provide suitable habitat for a range of
fauna groups, despite development of adjacent areas. The site’s fauna habitats can be broadly
separated into:
x Banksia woodland/open heathland – Valuable forage and shelter habitat for most fauna groups.
x Closed wet heathland/sedgeland – Valuable forage habitat for heathland birds, mammals and
“acid” frogs. Connecting to more extensive areas of this habitat in adjacent protected areas.
x Waterway riparian vegetation – Valuable forage, shelter and breeding habitat for amphibians and
birds. Connecting to more extensive areas of this habitat type in adjacent protected areas.
x Cleared or heavily disturbed areas – Poor value forage habitat for birds and forage/shelter habitat
for reptiles.

E: Endangered, V: Vulnerable, R: Rare
2.4.2 Amphibians
Queensland’s EPA database searches indicate records for 13 amphibian species in the locality of the
Subject Site, four of which are listed as threatened under Queensland legislation. Commonwealth
database searches indicate the potential occurrence of, or suitable habitat for, one additional
threatened (Commonwealth EPBC Act 1999) amphibian species.
Amphibian species know to occur in the wider locality may forage and shelter in a range of habitats,
including heavily altered or degraded landscapes. However, most species require some form of aquatic
habitat to complete their life cycle, and return to waterways or ephemeral pools to breed during
suitable conditions. Habitat assessment for amphibians was therefore targeted towards locating
suitable aquatic habitat for breeding or rainforest and stream-dependant species. It is assumed that a
range of common, adaptable amphibian species will occupy most habitats outside of these breeding
periods. Two amphibian species (Eastern Sedgefrog (Litoria fallax) and Cane Toad (Bufo marinus)) were
recorded during the survey period (Appendix D), neither of which is listed as threatened under
Commonwealth or Queensland legislation. In addition to these species, it is likely that a number of
amphibians known from the wider locality are likely to occur at the Subject Site despite the absence of
records during the survey period.
Habitat assessment indicates that the waterway through the northern-most property of the Subject Site
(Lot 7, RP890947) provides potential habitat for some of the threatened “acid frog” species known to
occur in the wider locality. Wallum Froglet (Crinia tinnula), Wallum Sedge-frog (Litoria olongburensis)
and Wallum Rocketfrog (Litoria freycineti) are all likely to occur in the Wallum heathland of Noosa
National Park adjacent to the Subject Site, and these species may also occupy the northern waterway of
the site. However, given the proximity of large protected areas of suitable habitat for “acid frogs”, it is
unlikely that the Subject Site provides significant habitat for these species. The site is unlikely to provide
suitable habitat (large water bodies with sparse sedges) for the Cooloola Sedge-frog (Litoria
cooloolensis).
Commonwealth EPBC Act database searches indicate the potential occurrence of the Giant Barred Frog
(Mixophyes iteratus) in the wider locality. However, habitat assessment indicates that the Subject Site
does not support suitable habitat for this species (streams through rainforest and wet eucalypt forest).
The occurrence of the Giant Barred Frog at the site is therefore unlikely.
2.4.3 Reptiles
Queensland’s EPA database searches indicate records for 34 reptile species in the locality of the Subject
Site, including one Rare (Queensland Nature Conservation Act 1992) terrestrial species. Commonwealth
database searches indicate the potential occurrence of, or suitable habitat for, one additional
threatened (Commonwealth EPBC Act 1999) terrestrial reptile species.
Habitat quality for terrestrial reptiles is strongly influenced by features such as leaf litter, fallen logs and
debris, tree hollows, suitable prey, decorticating bark and habitats of varying thermal properties
Grasstree Court, Sunrise Beach Ecological Assessment Report (BCR02) PLACE Environmental
Page 17
Page 25
(enabling effective thermoregulation). These attributes are most common in undisturbed environments.
Habitat assessment indicates that vegetation at the Subject Site provides suitable habitat for a range of
common reptile species. Only four reptile species were recorded at the Subject Site during the survey
period, none of which are listed as threatened under Commonwealth or Queensland legislation.
However, given the availability of suitable habitat at the site, combined with the site’s proximity to
Noosa National Park, it is likely that a much wider diversity of common reptile species occurs here.
Vegetation of the Subject Site differs from that occurring in the adjacent national park (low open
woodland at the site and heathland/sedgeland in the national park) and may therefore provide habitat
for reptiles that is not represented in this section of Noosa National Park. However, the area of the
Subject Site designated as “Urban Footprint” in OUM mapping and zoned for “Community Services” by
Noosa Council represents a relatively small area in the north of the Subject Site. Development of this
area (and removal of vegetation) is unlikely to result in any significant impacts on reptile species that
would also occur in suitable habitat of the southern areas of the Subject Site.
Ophioscincus truncatus was not recorded at the site during the survey period despite targeted surveys
for this species. This species primarily occupies closed or wet open forest communities on rich heavy
soils at elevated sites, although it has also been recorded from coastal lowland forest, woodland and
heathland on pale sandy soils (Wilson 2005). Suitable habitat for Ophioscincus truncatus occurs
throughout the Subject Site, although as this species is dependent on appropriate fire regimes it may no
longer occur at the site. The proposed development of the northern areas of the Subject Site is unlikely
to have any significant impacts on suitable habitat for Ophioscincus truncatus as similar habitat also
occurs in the southern areas of the site.
The Three-toed Snake-tooth Skink (Coeranoscincus reticulatus) occupies subtropical rainforest
environments. This species generally requires large areas of intact suitable habitat and a relative
absence of disturbance. Suitable habitat for the Three-toed Snake-tooth Skink is not provided at the
Subject Site, and this species is therefore unlikely to occur here.
2.4.4 Birds
Queensland’s EPA database searches indicate records for 258 bird species in the locality of the Subject
Site (during the survey period, one additional species, Bush-hen - Amaurornis olivaceus was recorded at
the Subject Site), including 14 threatened (Queensland Nature Conservation Act 1992) species.
Commonwealth database searches indicate the potential occurrence of, or suitable habitat for, three
additional threatened (Commonwealth EPBC Act 1999) bird species.
During the survey period, 39 bird species were recorded at the site, including two Vulnerable and one
Rare (Queensland’s Nature Conservation Act 1992) species. Given the quality of habitat at the Subject
Site and the sites proximity to Noosa National Park it is likely to support many more bird species than
were recorded during the survey including a number of migratory and nomadic species. However, the
northern area of the site that is proposed for development (with the exception of the small waterway
corridor) represents only a small portion of available habitat for birds at the Subject Site. A larger area
of similar open woodland habitat will remain undeveloped in the southern area of the site. It is
therefore unlikely that development at the site will result in any significant impacts on birds at the site
and in the wider area.
Within the proposed development area of the Subject Site, the waterway corridor of the northern
property (Lot 7, RP890947) represents riparian habitat that does not occur in other areas of the site.
Despite disturbance to the waterway, and the incursion of weeds, the waterway currently provides
suitable habitat for a range of species, including the Lewin’s Rail (Rallus pectoralis) which was detected
in this area during the survey period. Lewin’s Rail was also recorded from Burgess Creek within Noosa
National Park immediately downstream of the site’s waterway. Burgess Creek provides similar and more
extensive habitat similar to that represented along the site’s northern waterway.
The site’s waterway corridor is also where the Glossy Black Cockatoo (Calyptorhynchus lathami) was
recorded passing through the site during the survey period. Although Allocasuarina littoralis (a forage
species of the Glossy Black Cockatoo) occurs within the waterway corridor, it is unlikely that the site
Grasstree Court, Sunrise Beach Ecological Assessment Report (BCR02) PLACE Environmental
Page 18
Page 26
provides significant habitat for these birds. There are no suitably large hollow-bearing trees within the
proposed development area of the Subject Site that would provide suitable nesting habitat for the
Glossy Black Cockatoo.
The site’s waterway also provides a source of drinking water for small birds. It is likely that removal of
vegetation from the site’s northern waterway would result in a loss of habitat for the Lewin’s Rail at the
Subject Site, and would also remove a small area of forage habitat for the Glossy Black Cockatoo, and
suitable shelter habitat for small birds that use the waterway as a drinking point.
The site does not support large freshwater wetlands or tidal areas and is therefore unsuitable as habitat
for the Australian Painted Snipe, Black-necked Stork, Beach Stone-curlew, Sooty Oystercatcher, Eastern
Curlew, Little Tern and a range of migratory wading birds protected under international agreements
(JAMBA, CAMBA). These species are therefore unlikely to occur at the Subject Site, and development of
the site is unlikely to result in any significant impacts on these birds.
The site does not support suitable habitat (subtropical rainforest with fruiting trees) for the Coxen’s Fig-
parrot (Cyclopsitta diophthalma coxeni). It is therefore highly unlikely that this species occurs at the
Subject Site, and the proposed development will not result in any significant impacts on the Coxen’s Fig-
parrot.
The Black-breasted Button-quail (Turnix melanogaster) primarily occupies areas of dense, low vegetation
in closed forest communities. This species typically occurs in dry vine forests, but is also known to occur
in other communities, including coastal scrubs (pers. obs.). The Black-breasted Button-quail has been
recorded from Fraser Island and at Inskip Point on the adjacent mainland. Although no signs of
occurrence of this species (including indicative “platelets” formed by foraging birds) were recorded at
the Subject Site during the survey period, habitat assessment indicates that vegetation in the southern
area of the site may provide marginal forage habitat for the Black-breasted Button-quail. It is likely that
birds originating from known localities may utilise such marginal habitat as “stepping stones” during
dispersal. Given that the proposed development will only occur in the northern area of the site, some
distance from suitable habitat for the Black-breasted Button-quail, it is unlikely to result in any
significant impacts on this species.
The Subject Site supports an abundance of nectar producing flora and thus provides suitable forage
habitat for a range of nectarivorous birds, including the Regent Honeyeater (Xanthomyza Phrygia), Swift
Parrot (Lathamus discolor) and the Black-chinned Honeyeater (Melithreptus gularis). These three species
are all nomadic or migratory birds, and may occur (albeit infrequently) wherever there is an abundance
of nectar-producing vegetation. It is likely that any of these species may forage at the Subject Site
infrequently. However, given the wide range of all species it is unlikely that removal of vegetation
under the proposed development of the northern area of the Subject Site will result in any significant
impacts on any of these birds.
The Ground Parrot (Pezoporus wallicus) was recorded during the survey period from low
sedgeland/heathland along the narrow powerline access crossing Burgess Creek through Noosa
National Park. It is likely that the Ground Parrot occupies all areas of this habitat throughout the section
of the national park abutting the Subject Site. However, no habitat for the Ground Parrot occurs within
the northern area of the site, and it is unlikely that the proposed development will result in any
significant impacts on Ground Parrots at the site or in the adjacent Noosa National Park.
The Black-throated Finch (Poephila cincta cincta) is now extremely rare in southern parts of it’s former
range. This species typically occurs in grassy open woodland communities, particularly in inland areas.
The Black-throated Finch was not recorded at the Subject Site during the survey period, and is unlikely
to occur here. The proposed development of the northern area of the site will not result in any
significant impacts on the Black-throated Finch.
Database searches indicate that none of the large forest owl species has been recently recorded in the
locality of the Subject Site. Targeted searches during the survey period failed to locate any of the
species at the site, and habitat assessment indicates that the Subject Site does not provide suitable
forage, roost or nesting habitat for any of the large forest owls.
Grasstree Court, Sunrise Beach Ecological Assessment Report (BCR02) PLACE Environmental
Page 19
Page 27
The Red Goshawk (Erythrotriorchis radiatus) has been recorded from the wider locality, particularly from
the Cooloola region and Fraser Island to the north, and the hinterland areas to the west. Targeted
surveys for this species failed to record any Red Goshawks at the Subject Site during the survey period.
2
Given the massive home ranges of this species (approx. 250km ) it is possible that the Subject Site may
form a component of a large matrix of suitable forage habitat for any Red Goshawks that may occur in
the wider locality. However, suitable nest sites and optimal forage habitat for the Red Goshawk usually
consists of tall emergent trees within tall gallery or riparian forest communities within a larger matrix of
intact forest habitat. These habitats are not represented in any areas of the Subject Site.
The Grey Goshawk (Accipiter novaehollandiae) has also been recorded for the wider locality, although it
was not recorded at the Subject Site during the survey period. This species generally prefers to forage in
taller forest and woodland communities than those which occur at the site, although it has also been
observed foraging in low heathland/woodland when this occurs in areas adjacent to taller vegetation
(pers. obs.).
It is acknowledged that all raptor species have large home ranges, encompassing a matrix of forage,
roosting and breeding habitats. It is therefore possible that the site may form a component of the much
larger home ranges of any of the threatened raptor species known from the wider locality. However,
the site does not support suitable nesting habitat for any of the large raptors (taller forest/woodland
vegetation) and it is unlikely that the proposed development of the northern area of the site will have
any significant impacts on threatened raptor species.
2.4.5 Mammals
Queensland’s EPA database searches indicate records for 30 non-marine mammal species in the locality
of the Subject Site, including two Vulnerable (Commonwealth EPBC Act 1999) and one Vulnerable
(Queensland Nature Conservation Act 1992) species. Commonwealth database searches indicate the
potential occurrence of, or suitable habitat for, three additional threatened (Commonwealth EPBC Act
1999 and Queensland Nature Conservation Act 1992) mammal species.
During the survey period, eight mammal species were recorded at the site. The site provides suitable
habitat for a range of additional mammals known to occur in the wider area. With the exception of the
small waterway corridor in the northern area of the site, all suitable habitats for mammals at are also
well represented in the southern area of the Subject site and in the wider locality, and development of
the site is therefore unlikely to result in any significant impacts on common small terrestrial mammal
species known to occur here. The site’s small waterway provides habitat for the Swamp Rat (Rattus
lutreolus) which was recorded from this area during the survey period. However, more extensive habitat
for this species is likely to occur along Burgess Creek in the adjacent Noosa National Park.
The Water Mouse (Xeromys myoides) occurs in tidal mangrove and adjacent saltmarsh communities.
The Subject Site does not support suitable habitat for the Water Mouse, and it is therefore unlikely to
occur here. The proposed development of the northern area of the Subject Site will not result in any
significant impacts on this species.
The Spotted-tail Quoll (Dasyurus maculatus) is known to occur in a range of habitats, including
rainforest, wet and dry eucalypt forest and woodland, and heathland communities. It typically occurs in
large areas of relatively intact habitat. As a medium-sized terrestrial carnivore, it relies heavily on
suitable den and breeding sites including large hollow fallen logs and rocky outcrops. Targeted searches
for the Spotted-tail Quoll (including trapping, spotlighting, call-playback and diurnal searches for den
sites, tracks and scats) failed to record this species at the Subject Site during the survey period. Habitat
assessment indicates that suitable conditions for the Spotted-tail Quoll do not occur at the Subject Site.
It is therefore unlikely that development of the northern area of the site will result in any significant
impacts on this species.
The Long-nosed Potoroo (Potorous tridactylus) typically occupies dense vegetation in a range of
communities including coastal Wallum (Menkhorst 2001). Targeted surveys failed to detect the Long-
nosed Potoroo at the Subject Site. Despite the absence of records, this species may occur in the
Grasstree Court, Sunrise Beach Ecological Assessment Report (BCR02) PLACE Environmental
Page 20
Page 28
adjacent heathland of Noosa National Park, and may forage occasionally in suitable habitat within the
Subject Site. Habitat represented in the northern area of the site (with the possible exception of the
riparian vegetation of the site’s small northern waterway) is well represented in other areas of the
Subject Site.
No arboreal mammals were recorded at the Subject Site during the survey period. Habitat assessment
indicates that there are no suitable hollow-bearing trees to provide den and breeding sites for the
majority of arboreal mammal species known to occur in the wider locality. Despite the absence of
records, the Brush-tailed Possum (Trichosurus vulpecula) is still likely to occasionally forage at the site
from suitable den habitat in adjacent residential areas. The Feathertail Glider (Acrobates pygmaeus) is
also likely to occur here, as detection of this species is difficult. The proposed development of the
northern area of the Subject Site will not result in any significant impacts on arboreal mammals known
to occur in the wider locality.
The Koala (Phascolarctos cinereus) has been recorded from suitable habitat in the wider locality,
including the northern sections of Noosa National Park. Targeted surveys for this species (including
spotlighting, call-playback and scat searches) failed to detect signs of the Koala at the Subject Site.
Habitat assessment (combined with vegetation survey results) indicates that Koala forage tree species do
not occur at the site. It is therefore unlikely that the Subject Site provides suitable habitat for Koalas,
and the proposed development of the northern area of the site will not result in any significant impacts
on this species. Koala Conservation Plan provisions are addressed in Appendix F.
Although Anabat bat-call detection devices were employed during the survey period, no
microchiropteran bats were detected at the Subject Site. A number of microchiropteran bats are
known from the wider region, including some that are listed as threatened species, and despite the
absence of records during the survey period some may forage where suitable habitat occurs at the site.
Species that are known to roost in small tree hollows, or beneath leaves or decorticating bark could
potentially find suitable roost habitat throughout the Subject Site. The site does not however provide
suitable roost or nursery habitat for microchiropteran bats that are dependant on caves, culverts or
other similar structures. No significant habitat for microchiropteran bats will be removed under the
proposed development of the northern area of the Subject Site. No significant impacts on these species
are therefore likely to occur.
Several megachiropteran bat species are known to occur in the wider locality, and the Commonwealth
listed Grey-headed Flying Fox (Pteropus poliocephalus) was recorded foraging at the Subject Site during
the survey period. It is likely that any of the other megachiropteran bats known to occur in the wider
locality may forage occasionally at the site, particularly during blossoming and fruiting periods of trees
occurring at the site. However habitat assessment indicates that the site does not provide roosting or
breeding habitat for these species, and no flying fox colonies were observed at the Subject Site during
the survey period. It is therefore highly unlikely that the proposed development of the northern area of
the site will result in any significant impacts on megachiropteran bats.
2.5 Wildlife Corridor Values
Habitat assessment combined with desktop analysis of mapping and aerial photography indicate that
the section of Noosa National Park adjacent to the Subject Site provides a significant north/south wildlife
corridor for fauna species dependent on heathland/sedgeland communities in the wider locality. The
Subject Site itself supports taller open woodland/wallum heathland that provides additional width,
shelter and variation in vegetation to the adjacent National Park corridor.
Sunshine Coast Regional Council (formerly Noosa Council) mapping indicates that most of the Subject
Site is designated as “Open Space Conservation”. A smaller section at the north of the site is
designated as “Community Services” and is therefore consistent with the land use proposed for
development. The development area will be confined to the northern area of the subject site and
therefore will not impact vegetation of the southern area of the site. This vegetation will continue to
enhance the wildlife corridor values of the adjacent Noosa National Park.
Grasstree Court, Sunrise Beach Ecological Assessment Report (BCR02) PLACE Environmental
Page 21
Page 29
The small waterway in the northern area of the site may also contribute as a small-scale movement
corridor. The occurrence of Lewin’s Rail both within the site’s waterway and along Burgess Creek
downstream of the site appears to support that there is some movement of species along the waterway
corridor. However, the waterway is heavily degraded and infested with weed species, and there is no
continuation of habitat along the waterway to the east of the Subject Site. Although the waterway
provides suitable habitat for a range of fauna species it is unlikely to contribute significantly as a
movement corridor between larger, more intact areas of habitat.
Grasstree Court, Sunrise Beach Ecological Assessment Report (BCR02) PLACE Environmental

3.0 ENVIRONMENTAL EFFECTS MANAGEMENT AND COMPLIANCE
The proposed development is to be located within the development area as illustrated in Figure 1, and
includes four clustered residential aged care apartment buildings (each two storeys) totalling 54
dwellings; a recreation centre; a residential aged care (RAC) facility with 96 beds (two) and 55
independent living unit apartment buildings in seven buildings (each two storeys).
3.1 Impacts
3.1.1 Impacts on Vegetation
The proposed development of the Subject Site will be occurring within the northern area of the site in
accordance with Sunshine Coast Regional Council’s (formerly Noosa Council’s) zoning of the site and
OUM mapping. Vegetation occurring within the development footprint is well represented throughout
other areas of the Subject Site with the exception of the small waterway located within Lot 7,
RP890947; however the proposed development will not utilise this lot and therefore the existing riparian
vegetation will be retained.
Retaining a buffer to the site’s waterway will ensure that the fauna habitat values of the waterway are
retained under the proposed development. The additional benefits of observing a waterway setback
will be to protect the riparian vegetation that currently provides bank stability and reduces
sedimentation and pollution of Burgess Creek downstream of the junction with the site’s waterway.
3.1.2 Impacts on Fauna
Although heavily degraded and infested with weed species, the small waterway continues to provide
suitable habitat for a range of fauna species, including two bird species listed at Rare under
Queensland’s Nature Conservation Act 1992 (Lewin’s Rail and Glossy Black Cockatoo). “Acid frogs”
that are likely to occur in the adjacent Noosa National Park may also infrequently occupy this waterway.
The primary impact of the proposed development will therefore be the potential impacts on, or removal
of, fauna habitat within the waterway in the northern property of the site.
“Edge effects” that may occur as a result of the proposed development to the adjacent Noosa National
Park may be mitigated by retaining a “buffer zone” of native vegetation between the development and
the national park. The buffer zone will also provide some small corridor values for north/south fauna
movement between areas of more extensive habitat, and may also provide forage, shelter and breeding
habitat for fauna occurring in the adjacent national park areas.
It is unlikely that removal of vegetation from the proposed development footprint will result in any
significant impacts on fauna species that occur throughout similar habitat within the site and in the
wider locality. Much of this vegetation type will remain in the southern area of the site following
development, and this area will continue to function as a “stepping stone” of habitat for mobile species
such as birds and bats.

4.0 CONCLUSIONS
The aims of this assessment were to:
x Assess the validity of the various environmental protection designations;
x Identify other items of ecological significance on the site or in the locality which may affect the
manner or extent to which the site is developed, and advise the design team of a suitable
development strategy;
x Suggest means of ameliorating development impacts; and
x Address relevant Commonwealth, State and Local Government planning policies, and ensure
compliance.
Surveys have confirmed that, although the site contains areas of remnant vegetation, these vegetation
community types are well represented in areas that aren’t subject to development and also within the
nearby Noosa National Park. It is unlikely that removal of vegetation from the proposed development
footprint will result in any significant impacts on fauna species that occur throughout similar habitat
within the site and in the wider locality. Much of this vegetation type will remain in the southern area
of the site following development, and this area will continue to function as a “stepping stone” of
habitat for mobile species such as birds and bats.
The Site is designated as a Koala management area under the Koala Conservation Plan, however surveys
have revealed that the Site’s Koala habitat values are generally low, and no Koalas, scats or scratch
marks were detected on the subject site or development area.
The SEQ Regional Plan designates the two most northern parcels as both within the Urban Footprint
under the SEQ Regional Plan. The northern portion of Lot 1 SP177650 is also designated as Urban
Footprint, with the balance of Lot 1 classified as Regional Landscape and Rural Production Area.
Under the Nature Conservation (Koala) Conservation Plan 2006 and Management Program 2006-2016
the development area is classified as Urban Koala Area and Koala Sustainability Area. The requirements
of this policy have been addressed, and where the development proposal departs from the requirements
solutions have been provided.
The Regional Ecosystem Map for the locality indicates that much of the subject site is mapped as an
indiscernible combination (50:50) of Regional Ecosystem 12.2.9 and 12.2.13. The balance of the
investigation area is currently mapped as non-remnant vegetation. These areas represent parcels of
land immediately associated with Grass Tree Court and established infrastructure.
Under The Sunshine Coast Regional Plan (2008) the majority of the southern half of the site is zoned as
Open Space Conservation, which generally excludes development or the subdivision of freehold lot.
This is consistent with the layout of this proposed development, which occurs outside of this zone. The
remainder of the subject site is zoned as Community Services. The development intent within this zone
is consistent with the overall outcomes of the Community Services Zone - Multiple Housing Type 3. As
the proposed aged accommodation development is supported by The Sunshine Coast Regional Plan
(2008) and it is a logical development for the site and its surrounds, the focus of the project should be
to minimize impacts that typically arise from such developments. Such mitigation strategies to be
applied with this development will include fauna-sensitive development, bushfire management strategy
and the application of a vegetation management plan.
