       The conditions of approval including Permit A, allowed for the clearing of regulated vegetation
       subject to an environmental offset being provided to allow for the proposed landfill (refer
       condition 2.9 – Attachment 2A & 2B). The condition required an Offset Restoration Plan
       providing for a minimum of 24 hectares of land within the area of properties provided in Table
       1. Further, the restoration plan is to achieve 19ha of a remanent “Endangered” regional
       ecosystem and a minimum of 5ha of remanent “Not of Concern” regional ecosystem within 20
       years of the commencement of the use. Consequently, compliance with the environmental
       offset is to be achieved by 2026 and at this stage is well advanced (discussed below).
