    | Area A (approx 0.38 ha)                                                                   |
    |  To be kept clear for safety as part of the Lot | building envelope. This will reduce risk of fire
      near buildings, reduce !caf litter in gutters and avoid the threat of falling trees or branches |
   |   during storms, windy conditions, ete,
   |   Area B (approx 0,55ha)
      Building envelope for Lot | to be kept clear or planted with fire retardant species in gardens,
       Area C (approx 1.2 ha)                                                                  |
   |  This area has been mostly cleared and will be kept this way to serve as a safety buffer for the
   |  house site, a fire break / access trail and also provides open space for two log landing areas.
      Aves RE 1 (0.15 ha) and RE 2 (0.2 ha)                                                    |
      These areas consist of dense regrowth of mostly immature trees. They will be subject to  |
  |    Toutine silvicultural practice and some trees will be teft for harvest when mature.
  |   Areas Pi - P3 (approx 52 ha combined)
       These areas represent most of the productive forestry on the two lots and as such will be |
       managed using routine silviculture and harvest methods as specified in the code. Only
       minimal silviculture and harvest will be carried out in gullies and on steeper slopes to reduce |
       impacts on rainforest species in regrowth or potentially unstabic arcas.
  |    Areas ¥1 - ¥4 (approx 10.6 ha)
      These areas are generally younger regrowth than those outlined above. Some enrichment   |
  |   planting was carried out in Y1 and Y2, although the 1993 fire killed many young tees. As a
      result some parts are open, while others have tree cover, Where there is a broken cancpy,
      weeds proliferate, so their control is important if native forest is to be re-established here, In
      particular leguminous vines and Lantana arc an issue.
      Weed control, silviculture and harvesting will be carried out in these areas and if accessary |
      some carichment planting will be undertaken in parts where natural regeneration is
      inadequate or pianted trees were damaged by fire.
      Area A2 (approx 1.8 ha)                                                                |
      This area contains sheds, fruit trees and omamentals. With the exception of garden plants, it
 |    will be kept clear as a firebreak to protect infrastructure and utilised as a productive garden.
|      Areas A3.1 — 3.4 (approx 3.6 ha)
      These areas are mostly clear and will be kept that way to maintain an important firebreak and |
|     to provide access for logging operations. Grazing will be carried out to keep it mostly open
      and control weeds,                                                                     |
      Area MA (approx 0.2 ba)                                                               |
|      ‘This area is a small Macadamia orchasd that is overgrown with Acacia, Lantana, etc. Wattles
      and weeds will be controlled around nut trees.                                        |
      Area Z (epprox 0.45 ha)                                                               |
       To compensate for clearing of a building envelope on Lot | the property owner plans to .
      revegetate an area approximately the same size (sce ‘Layer | and 2”). Natural regencration is
      profific in this area and will be retained and where necessary local hardwood species will be
                                                                                      7
