                               a)    a method of clearing trees whereby felling operations are conducted in discrete
                                     stages such that wildlife is provided sufficient time and space to enable them to
                                     move from the clearing site of their own volition without the need for human
                                     intervention to remove or relocate them; and
                               b)    the felling of limited numbers of trees at any one time at the clearing site and
                                     not clearing where native wildlife is present; and
                               Cc)   not the clearing of all trees on site in a single, uninterrupted operation.

                               topping means reducing the height of a tree through the practice of lopping (AS 4373-
