                 Fauna Management Plan
                 3-7 Serenity Close, Noosa Heads



                 Most of the construction activities that can impact fauna are similar to the clearing
                 activities mentioned in Section 4.2.1. Table 6 summarises the activities and management
                 responses which need to be carried out during the construction phase of the
                 development.

                 TABLE 6: CONSTRUCTION ACTIVITIES.

                  Action               Task                                                 Responsibility     Timing
                  Restrict vehicle     1)   No vehicle access to areas of vegetation yet    Site Manager       During
                  access                    to be cleared.                                                     construction
                                       2) Access is prohibited to vehicles outside of                          activities
                                          construction machinery.
                                       3) Set lower vehicle speeds around the site so
                                          that motorists have a longer response time
                                          to avoid collision with potentially disoriented
                                          fauna.
                                       4) Install signage depicting native wildlife in
                                          areas of vehicular traffic on site.


                  Limit dust           1)   Vehicles to drive slowly to keep dust clouds    Site Manager       During
                  generation                from forming.                                                      vegetation
                                       2) Thoroughly clean machinery after use.                                clearing
                                       3) Use barriers to control dust.
                  Minimise             1)   Trenches, pits and sediment ponds must be       Fauna Spotter,     During
                  damage                    covered when not in use.                        Site Manager       construction

                                          could entrap fauna should not be left
                                          unattended when not in use.
                                       4) Electricity poles, towers and cranes must be
                                          wrapped to prevent fauna from climbing.
                                       5) Suggested risk mitigation measures can be
                                          found in the Koala-Sensitive Design Guideline
                                          2022 (Department of Environment and
                                          Science 2022).

                  domestic pets             entering actual construction areas to avoid                        activities

                                       2) Guard dogs must be kept on a leash and
                                          under supervision at all times.
