2. CONCURRENCE AGENCY MATTERS
   Vegetation Management Act 1999
   The Chief Executive of the Department of Natural Resources and Water (NRW)
   would like to inform the Assessment Manager, that NRW has no concurrence agency
   requirements in regard to the application

    Reasons for the concurrence agency response
    NRW has assessed the Material Change of Use (MCU) application against the
    Concurrence Agency Policy for Material Change of Use (MCU) 23 August 2007 and
    has determined that the application meets the requirements of Criteria Table B,
    because cleanng as a result of the MCU will only occur
         • for an urban purpose in an urban area on freehold land, and
         • in remnant vegetation that does not contain an endangered regional
             ecosystem, where there is no Property Map of Assessable Vegetation
             (PMAV) for the area subject to the clearing
