Regulated Vegetation DR, 2023 | Regulated Vegetation mapping shows vegetation categories that determine clearing

Management Map requirements as gazetted under the Qid Vegetation Management Act 1999. The
Regulated Vegetation Supporting map provides information on regional ecosystems,
wetlands, watercourses, and essential habitat and factors.

Protected Plants Flora DES, 2023 | This tool identifies whether a proposed clearing area lies within a high risk area that

Survey Trigger Map) may contain EVNT plant species. It is used to determine when a flora survey needs
fo meet the requirements of the Queensland Flora Survey Guidelines — Protected
Plants (NCA, 1992).

Essential Habitat Map DR, 2023 | Essential Habitat is @ vegetation ecotype that is considered by DES to form potential
habitat for an EVNT species that is listed under the Nature Conservation Regulations
(2020). Essential Habitat mapping is provided in conjunction with
Vegetation Management mapping as gazetted under the VMA (1999).

Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999 that are likely to occur in your area of interest —

Map of Referable Wetlands | DES, 2023 | A statewide regulatory map under the Environmental Protection Regulation 2008
which identifies wetlands of high ecological significance (HES) and general
ecological significance (GES). HES wetlands are considered MSES under the
Planning and Environmental Offsets legislation.

Matters of State DES, 2023 | This report identifies MSES as referenced in the biodiversity state interest under the

Environmental State Planning Policy (SPP). MSES encompass environmental values protected

| Significance (MSES) under Queensland leaislation, including Sea Turtle Nesting Areas.

Queensland Waterways for | QLD Globe, | This spatial data layer guides the determination of whether operational work that is

Waterway Barrier Works | 2023 constructing or raising waterway barrier works ie. works that may inhibit the free

spatial data layer and movement of fish along waterways and onto floodplains, complies with the accepted

guideline development requirements or is assessable development requiring a development
approval under the Planning Act 2016.

Queensland Coastal DES, 2023 | These maps display the inland boundaries of the coastal management district. Maps

Hazard Areas maps also display areas considered vulnerable to coastal erosion or permanent tidal
inundation and areas that have a 1% or greater risk of storm tide inundation in any
one year including projected climate change impact to 2100 (a 0.8m increase in sea
level). It shows two risk areas: high risk areas where inundation would be greater
than 1m in depth, and a medium risk area where inundation will be less than 1m.
