210055 - 327 Kinmond Creek Road, COOTHARABA - Flora Trigger Assessment Report

    conducted to determine the existing condition and threatened species habitat of the site. The VMP set the framework
    for vegetation management actions on site, and included objectives, methods and responsibilities during operational work.
    The Koala Management Plan was developed in accordance with the Offsets for Net Gain of Koala habitat in South-east
    Queensland policy and the Bushfire Management Plan was designated in accordance with the Australian Standard AS3959-
    2009 Construction of buildings in bushfire prone areas. The offset plan required a detailed survey of all non-juvenile Koala
    habitat trees (NJKHT), and information on the protection of these species. All management plans included the location
    and description of all vegetation to be retained and removed, as well as the location of vegetation protection measures
    to be implemented. Kelly prepared a tree clearing and retention plan for the operational work submission, which was
    successfully approved by Council and implemented by the operational team.

•   Ecological Assessment, Species Management Plan and Rehabilitation Plan – Stockland Pty LtdKelly project
    managed the development and approval by Sunshine Coast City Council and DEHP, of an Ecological Assessment report
    and a Species Management Plan (SMP) for a water and sewer alignment associated with the Bells Reach Development at
    Caloundra South. The SMP addressed fauna management during the vegetation clearing and operational work process
    and ensure that protection and retention of known habitat for the threatened Wallum Froglet (Crinia tinnula), Wallum
    Sedgefrog (Litoria olongburensis) and Wallum Rocketfrog (Litoria freycineti).

•   Environmental Restoration Plan at Chinderah – Private Owner, 2014 – Kelly undertook a field survey in
    preparation of the Environmental Management Plan and Restoration/Offset Plan to assess the current extent of existing
    vegetation and habitat for threatened species, including Koala, on the site, and determine the scope and area for offset
    works. The restoration strategy detailed the extent of existing vegetation and locations of the proposed restoration
    zone, including areas suitable for replanting, weed control works and ongoing maintenance and monitoring requirements.
    Kelly provided detailed on the restoration works required to stabilise and revegetate areas disturbed during the
    construction phase as a result of excavation works and other construction activity. The Environmental Management Plan
    illustrated compliance with the approval condition package and allowed for completion of the development work in a
    timely manner.

•   Ecological Assessment and Ecological Restoration Plan at Trinity Green – Hatia Property Corporation:
    Kelly prepared an Ecological Assessment report and provided specialist advice on rehabilitation for the site located in
    Brisbane City Council. She also organised and supervised a fauna survey, targeting Koalas, and provided specialist advice
    on the EPBC referral for the site. She developed a Vegetation Management Plan and a Biodiversity Offset Plan to comply
    with the local legislation, which facilitated the approval of the proposed residential development (62 lots).

ENERGY AND RESOURCES

•   Ecological assessment and environmental approvals for a Central Qld Wind Farm – 2019- Current: Kelly
    is supervising and managing Commonwealth and State Department applications of the proposed Wind Farm in Central
    Queensland. Kelly completed two seasonal ecological surveys, which included detailed fauna and flora surveys. Kelly is
    currently finalising the development of a detailed ecological report that focused primarily on potential impacts on
    threatened flora and fauna listed under the State and Federal environmental legislation. As an expert in the field, Kelly
    provided advice on key issues including potential impacts to birds and bats due to rotor strike or barotraumas and direct
    removal of species and habitat for threatened species within the access road and tower footprints.

•   Ecological assessment and environmental approvals for Banana Range Wind Farm – Lacour, 2018-
    Current: Kelly finalised the environmental approval to support the construction of a solar farm State and Council
    environmental approvals. The solar farm will have an approximate capacity of 70 megawatts (MW) which will supply
    electricity to the national electricity grid via a transmission line that runs along the western boundary of the site. The
    Project covers an area of approximately 190 hectares within the northern portion of the site. The site contains limited
    environmental values and proposed mitigations measures will be sufficient to meet the State and Council’s performance
    outcome/requirements.
