            4.3     Analysis
            The thirty-four regional fauna species of conservation significance were scientifically scored and ranked against
            the selection criteria. This was undertaken through reference to the supporting information identifies in Section
            3, particularly the DES ‘Threatened Species Back on Track Status’ resource. Where information was absent or
            required interpolation (in the application of some selection criteria), evaluation was carried out by a suitably
            qualified person (Noosa Council Fauna Project Officer). Furthermore, the Decision Matrix (and this Road Map) has
            undergone and internal review process by suitably qualified Noosa Environmental Services staff members. Expert
            review is recommended prior to delivery of the final document.

            External Review
            It is intended to undertake a consultation program with external stakeholders, including key conservation groups
            to review the content of this Draft Road Map. A consultation plan will be developed in accordance with Council’s
            templates and distributed internally for further review (see Section 6, Delivery).

            Please refer to Attachment One for the Decision Matrix used to nominate the Noosa Nine.

            4.4      Species representation across habitats
            To deliveran integrated approach, the distribution of the Noosa Nine (were justifiable) should proportionally
            represent each of the region’s seven key habitat types. Attachment One (Decision Matrix) identifies species
            primary use of each of the key habitat types. Table 3 summarises this breakdown, and then indicates an optimum
            spread of the Noosa Nine across the seven key habitats. Given the range of some species cross between habitats,
            it is preferable to select two species from ‘Ecotones and combined habitats’ to ensure overall representation and
            conservation of regional biodiversity values.
