2.3.2.2 Threatened Fauna Species and Migratory Species
Database searches using the Commonwealth PMST identified thirty (30) threatened fauna
species that may occur within 10km of the subject site based on the availability of suitable
habitats. The DEHP Wildlife Online database indicated that twenty-six (26) threatened
fauna species have been recorded from within 10km of the subject site.

Threatened fauna species detected in the database searches are listed in TABLE 3. The
conservation status of each species listed in TABLE 3 is shown in accordance with the
Commonwealth EPBC Act (1999) and the Queensland NCWR (2006). Marine species that will
clearly not occur on the site (e.g. albatross, whales, sea turtles) have been omitted.

Database searches using the Commonwealth PMST also revealed that forty (40) migratory
species may occur within 10km of the site based on the availability of suitable habitat.
Migratory species identified in database searches are listed in TABLE 4.
