1     INTRODUCTION

1.1      Background
North Coast Environmental Services have been commissioned to prepare a Fauna Management
Plan (FMP) to manage fauna during and prior to vegetation clearing proposed to be undertaken on
Lot 105 on SP118458 located at 62 Lake MacDonald Drive, Cooroy QLD (referenced hereafter as
the ‘site’).
A Reconfiguration of A Lot (RAL) Development Application is proposed for the site which will require
vegetation clearing. A copy of the plan of development is presented as Appendix 1.

1.2      General Responsibilities
All fauna management services undertaken within the site are to be conducted in accordance with
all applicable and relevant local, State and Commonwealth government guidelines and legislation.
A suitably qualified and appropriately experienced fauna spotter/catcher is to be employed to
undertake the fauna management services prior to and during all clearing activities.
The Project Manager is responsible for ensuring that all persons directly and indirectly associated
with the fauna management activities understand the vegetation and fauna management measures
prescribed within this Fauna Management Plan. Failure to comply with the management measures
prescribed herein may result in the contravention of local, State and Commonwealth legislative
responsibilities. The Project Manager should contact the Council’s environmental staff where doubt
arises over any vegetation removal/habitat disturbance situations before the activity in question
proceeds.
