                    1.   The Contractor shall ensure that to the extent possible
                         project infrastructure and auxiliary works (laydown areas,
                         stockpile sites, site office) are constructed in a manner that
                         does not create additional hazards for wildlife.
                    2.   Inspect open trenches, culverts and other structures prior

     5. Conclusion
     Australia Wide Environmental Consultants (AWEC) were commissioned by Stockwell Development
     Group Pty Ltd to compose a Fauna Management Plan for the Noosa Civic on Walter Hay Drive in
     Noosaville, Queensland (See Figure 1).

     The aim of this Fauna Management Procedure is to outline the fauna management measures that are
     to be implemented pre, during and post clearing works. The fauna management measures in this
     procedure are designed to minimise the impact that this development will have on any fauna occupying
     or utilizing the site.

     All the fauna management measures need to be adhered to throughout the clearing, earthworks and
     construction phases of this project in order to minimise the impact on native fauna.
