The area surveyed is the moderately disturbed southern end of a larger tract of remnant
heathland. It suffers from degraded edges, litter incursion, clearing for access tracks and/or
potential boreholes and receives stormwater inputs from the constructed sediment basin on the
northern edge of the landfill. Refer to Figure 5.

There is also variation in vegetation condition throughout the centre of the site, where Lantana
and introduced grasses have colonised open patches that were historically cleared/disturbed.
Refer to Figure 6.
