3.6 Protected plants (administered by the Department of Environment and
Science (DES))
In Queensland, all plants that are native to Australia are protected plants under the Nature Conservation Act 1992 (NCA),
with clearing of protected plants in the wild regulated by the Nature Conservation (Wildlife Management) Regulation 2006.
These requirements apply irrespective of the classification of the vegetation under the Vegetation Management Act 1999.

Prior to clearing, if the plants proposed to be cleared are in the wild (see Operational policy: When a protected plant in
Queensland is considered to be 'in the wild') and the exemptions under the Nature Conservation (Wildlife Management)
Regulation 2006 are not applicable to the proposed clearing, you must check the flora survey trigger map to determine if any
part of the area to be cleared is within a high risk area. The trigger map for this property is provided in section 5.6. The
exemptions relate to:
        • imminent risk of death or serious injury (refer s261A)
        • imminent risk of serious damage to a building or other structure on land, or to personal property (refer s261B)
        • Fire and Emergency Service Act 1990 (refer 261C)
        • previously cleared areas (refer s261ZB)
        • maintenance activities (refer s261ZC)
        • firebreak or fire management line (refer s261ZD)
        • accepted development vegetation clearing code (refer s261ZE)
        • conservation purposes (refer s261ZG)
        • authorised in particular circumstances (refer s385).

Some exemptions under the NCA are the same as exempt clearing work (formerly known as exemptions) from the Vegetation
Management Act 1999 (i.e. listed in the Planning Regulations 2017) while some are different.

If the proposed area to be cleared is shown as high risk on the flora survey trigger map, a flora survey of the clearing impact
area must be undertaken in accordance with the flora survey guidelines. The main objective of a flora survey is to locate any
endangered, vulnerable or near threatened plants (EVNT plants) that may be present in the clearing impact area.

If a flora survey identifies that EVNT plants are not present within the clearing impact area or clearing within 100m of EVNT
plants can be avoided, the clearing activity is exempt from a permit. An exempt clearing notification form must be submitted to
the Department of Environment and Science, with a copy of the flora survey report, at least one week prior to clearing. The
clearing must be conducted within two years after the flora survey report was submitted.

If a flora survey identifies that EVNT plants are present in, or within 100m of, the area to be cleared, a clearing permit is
required before any clearing is undertaken. The flora survey report, as well as an impact management report, must be
