       Nature of impact on EVNT species populations;
       Attempts to avoid and minimise impacts;
       Management of impacts;
       Contingency planning;
       Appropriate minimum requirements for monitoring, reporting and review of the
        IMP and SMP;
       Supporting documentation / justification of appropriateness and effectiveness of
        proposed impact management strategies.

1.3     Legislation

Relevant legislation/policies that have been considered in the preparation of this IMP
include:

       Animal Care and Protection Act 2001
       Biosecurity Act 2014
       Environmental Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999
       Environmental Protection Act 1994
       Nature Conservation Act 1992
       Vegetation Management Act 1999

1.3.1 Nature Conservation Act

Identified EVNT species and their breeding habitats are protected under s88 of the NC Act
and s332 of the Nature Conservation (Wildlife Management) Regulation 2006. Pursuant
to Section 88 of the Nature Conservation Act (NC Act) 1992 and Section 332 of the Nature
Conservation (Wildlife Management) Regulation 2006, any works that have the potential
to impact the breeding places of listed species are required to be undertaken in
accordance with an SMP approved by DES.

1.4     Applicable parties

This IMP applies to NC, its employees and any contractors engaged in the undertaking of
vegetation clearing and landfill construction work within areas of EVNT species breeding
habitat. Where conflicts arise between the provisions of this IMP and any contractors’
obligations under their respective contracts, the contractor must seek clarification from NC
prior to implementing that element over which the ambiguity is identified.
