ATTACHMENT 1
ASSESSMENT OF ENVIRONMENTAL VALUES & RATIONALE FOR APPROVING RAL 20-019
Fluvial Geomorphology & Mapping
The state Vegetation Management Act and Noosa Plan 2020 maps indicate that a waterway passes
through the property. On site assessment and online imagery confirm the site has two
impoundments with other farm dams upstream and no apparent defined bed and banks
downstream. The Preclear Regional Ecosystem mapping indicate that it was likely the site was a
palustrine wetland ecosystem (12.3.4 - vulnerable) prior to disturbance (Fig 1). This proposition is
consistent with the upstream remnant on the north side of Jirrima Crescent (Figure 2). The state’s
Vegetation Management Act mapping also shows the site as a groundwater dependent ecosystem
(Fig 3). Preclear Regional Ecosystem Mapping

Area (Figure 5). There is good opportunity to enhance the ecosystem diversity and condition to
improve the habitat for these species. The preclear RE for remnants at the rear of the property is
mapped as RE 12.3.14 (vulnerable) and the species observed suggest this site, could be rehabilitated
to achieve an ecosystem akin to that described as RE 12.3.14a (Attachment 2). This RE is known to
provide habitat for the threatened plant species Eucalyptus conglomerata. This ecosystem is also
known to provide suitable habitat for koalas (Phascolarctos cinereus). The presence of very old seed
trees to the rear of the wetland on this property, together with the existing successional regrowth
suggests low-cost rehabilitation methods (targeted revegetation, stock exclusion and environmental
weed management) are likely to offer a high potential for widening the large remnant tract to the
rear of the allotment.
The potential for subdivision and an additional residence/ household at the front of the allotment is
highly unlikely to create any significant impact on the current low conservation values within the
mapped riparian buffer area. In contrast requiring rehabilitation as part of a condition of approval
could lead to significant improvement in conservation values.

Figure 5: State Koala Mapping in the Locality
Planning Grounds — Riparian Buffer
The current Riparian Buffer mapping in the Noosa Plan 20230 Overlay is wider than that which pre-
existed in the 2006 scheme. My view is the extent of while the buffer may be appropriate for a high-
ecological value wetland or a 3" or 4" order stream, the site is neither of these. It is suggested that
the development can be conditioned to achieve the key Performance Outcomes in the Code as
outlined below (my underlining).
POS
Development is designed and operated to maintain and enhance connectivity between and across
ecologically important areas and connecting habitat and support unimpeded and safe movement of
terrestrial and aquatic fauna.

GENERAL COMMITTEE MEETING MINUTES 14 JUNE 2021
PO6
The biodiversity and ecosystem values of waterways, wetlands and adjacent riparian zones are
protected by:
a) avoiding any new development ina riparian buffer area and wetland area;
b) retaining aquatic and terrestrial habitat in riparian zones;
c) maintaining and enhancing wildlife corridors and connectivity along watercourses and
drainage lines for native fauna movement;
d) avoiding edge effects and damage from adjacent land uses;
e) maintaining stream integrity and bank stability by minimising bank erosion and slumping;
f) maintaining water quality through filtering sediments, nutrients and other pollutants; and
g) removing pest species and replacing them with local native species.
As discussed above, from an aquatic ecosystem perspective, significant environmental improvement
could be achieved by rehabilitating the zone bounded by the 4 m contour with canopy and
understorey species which are known to occur in RE12.3.4 and by improving fluvial connectivity by
installing low flow culvert/pipes in the bottom dam. Reinstatement of key habitat requirements of
Crinia tinnula would also be desirable. From the western 4m contour to the rear boundary, roughly as
shown in Figure 6, a rehabilitation objective to enhance koala habitat by planting canopy species with
local provenance in RE 12.3.14a, including threatened Fucalyptus conglomerate, would be
appropriate. Full ecosystem rehabilitation over approximately 1.2 ha is probably an unreasonable
requirement. However, establishing the fundamental components of the preclear ecosystems will
allow for ecological succession to achieve greater species diversity and habitat function to occur over
time considering the increased connectivity provided to the western remnant. Placing restrictions on
fencing within an environmental covenant; and establishing a house site at the front of the new lot,
as a condition of approval will also reduce any potential minor additional human impacts of what is
currently a highly disturbed ecosystem.

NOOSA SHIRE — WATERWAYS ASSESSMENT 2017
AN ASSESSMENT OF NOOSA WATERWAYS TO INFORM THE NOOSA PLAN & REHABILITATION
STRATEGIES
Paperbark and Sedgeland Dominated Non-Riverine Wetlands and Estuarine Area
Within the current Vegetation Management Act, except where exemptions or Accepted
Development Vegetation Clearing Codes apply, clearing both within and within 100m of a wetland
(non-riparian and estuarine) conflicts with Acceptable Outcomes for assessable vegetation clearing.
Ideal Buffer distance recommendations for wetlands from a water quality perspective do however
largely depend on the method of water input to the wetlands — either surface or groundwater
infiltration and the geographical source of such waters. Specific information of this nature does not
currently exist comprehensively and accurately across the shire and as such the generalization of
100m is recommended as per regulatory guidelines. (P.62)
“A number of initiatives are potentially available that could provide wetland value and water quality
outcomes within non-riparian and estuarine wetlands. These initiatives could include:
e Actions to preserve wetland quality, in particular management of transformer weeds and
feral animal pets, particularly feral pigs.
e Cattle access and fencing.
e Reinstatement of wetland vegetation, both within wetlands themselves and within desired
wetland buffer areas.
e Reinstatement of surface freshwater flow and condition, in and around wetlands where
channelization or alteration has occurred.
e §=Retrofitting and reconstruction of road crossings in wetland areas to reduce the effect of
narrowing and concentrating flow causing both upstream and downstream riverbank and
bed disturbance. Fish and aquatic fauna passage would also benefit directly from this
activity.
e Engagement and or regulatory programs to upgrade effluent disposal systems and their
impact on producing discharge into shallow aquifers in targeted areas such as Cootharaba.”

Fire management SEASON: Late summer to mid-winter (after rain).
guidelines INTENSITY: Planned and occasional unplanned burns
(typically of higher intensity) influence the ecology of
melaleuca ecosystems. INTERVAL: Heath 8-12 years, Sedge
12-20 years, Mixed grass/shrub 6-20 years. STRATEGY: Aim
for a 25-70% burn mosaic (in association with surrounding
ecosystems, as melaleuca ecosystems often just occur in patches
or along natural drainage lines). Fires may, depending on the
conditions and type of vegetation, burn areas larger than just the
melaleuca ecosystem. Ensure secure boundaries from non fire-
regime adapted ecosystems. Consider the needs of melaleuca
ecosystems based on understorey (i.e., heath dominated, sedge
dominated or mixed grass/shrub) when planning burns. High
soil moisture (or presence of water on the ground) is required,
as avoidance of peat-type fires must be maintained. ISSUES:
Fire regimes for melaleuca ecosystems require further fire
research. Melaleuca forests are fire-adapted, but too high an
intensity or frequent fire will slow or prevent regeneration and
lead to lower species richness (since these communities contain
numerous obligate seed regenerating species that require
sufficient fire intervals to produce seed). High intensity fires
may kill trees and lead to whipstick regeneration. Too frequent
fire may result in a net loss of nutrients over time from an
already nutrient poor system. Fire associations are significantly
influenced by understorey composition. Melaleuca communities
with a heath understorey should burn in a similar way to coastal
heath (8-12 years). Sedge understorey communities will burn in
association with the surrounding ecosystems (so will often burn
with them but sometimes not, such that these communities have
a slightly less fire frequency). Mixed understorey communities
burn in a similar way to dry sclerophyll, in association with the
surrounding dry sclerophyll, though somewhat less frequently
due to the additional moisture present in melaleuca
communities.

guidelines high; due to the inherent characteristics of highly flammable

burn mosaic of 40-80%. Ensure planned burn conditions are
conducive to maintaining integrity of the landscape (i.e., use
good soil moisture, recent rainfall and standing water on the
ground). ISSUES: Intervals at the upper end (12-20 years) of
the recommended regime may be desirable to counteract
detrimental impacts of a high intensity fire over 100% of
landscape. This vegetation often contains obligate seed
regenerating species and as such, the application of frequent fire
may reduce species richness if the intervals between fire are not
sufficient for plants to produce seed.
