                                                                                     Native Foresters



    B) Northern Construction Zone

    •    The vegetation in this area is remnant/regrowth sclerophyll forest (Least concern RE 12.9-
         10.17 Eucalyptus acmenoides, E. major, E. siderophloia +/- Corymbia citriodora subsp.
         variegata woodland on sedimentary rocks). Refer to Figure 7.
    •    Nine significant native trees with dbh 500mm or greater occur to form the canopy, some
         with well-formed habitat hollows. One Pink Bloodwood (Corymbia intermedia) with dbh
         600mm should be retained with understorey cleared. These specimens to be cleared or
         retained are shown in Figure 3 and Appendix C.
    •    Several native trees and shrubs constitute the dense mid-storey including Macaranga
         tanarius, Alphitonia excelsa and Petalostigma triquetra.
    •    The understorey is formed by a number of native sedges including Lomandra longifolia
         and Dianella caerulea, and a grassy turfed area.
    •    Proposed works may impact up to 1500 m2 of native vegetation within the Northern
         Construction Zone.
