Description of Proposal

Harvesting of native forestHarvesting of native forest, using Single Tree Selection, Silviculture subject to theSouthern Region, IFOA requirements will be undertaken within this planning unit.

The primary product of the harvesting is high quality large sawlogs (quota logs),small high quality sawlogs, veneer logs, girders, poles & piles where timber marketsare available. Parts of felled logs that do not meet high quality log specifications aresegregated and graded into other classifications such as salvage sawlogs, pulplogs & miscellaneous timbers e.g. split & round posts, firewood, mining timbers &craftwood. The availability of miscellaneous timbers depends mainly on foresttypes, log defectiveness & market conditions at the time of harvesting.

Clause 22 – Integrated Forestry Operations Approval (IFOA) ConsiderationAll relevant factors have been reviewed taking into account the volume andmonetary value of each forest product to supply Term Agreement Holders. Theharvesting operation also complies with Clause 22 of the IFOA.

Attachment 1: Site Safety Plan prescribes safety requirements and MedicalEmergency Evacuation Plan for this harvesting operation.

Attachment 2: Roading plan prescribes roading requirements for this harvestingoperation.Attachment 3: Burning Plan prescribes burning requirements for this harvestingoperation.Post-harvest burning should be confined as far as practicable to the Net Harvest Area.Site specific burning exclusions associated with Flora, Fauna, Cultural Heritage,


HP_BB_104_12 05-06-12 2

Riparian and other exclusion zones are explained within the relevant sections of thisHarvest Plan and indicated on the HPOM.Where practicable, snig track patterns should be designed to double as bare earthcontrol lines to prevent fire entering specified burning exclusion zones and othertenures, i.e. Smoky Mouse, Southern Brown Bandicoot & significant Cultural Heritagesites.Where this is not practical, the Contract Coordinator is to assess the need for a bareearth break to be constructed close to harvesting exclusion boundaries and seekadvice and approval from the Harvesting Team Leader for the additional earth works.Specific areas identified during the planning stage which require a mineral earth breakare identified in the burning plan.

• 2 permanent apiary set down sites are located in north-eastern corner of compartment 104, within excluded forest area (see HPOM).

Forest Management Zoning

FMZ 2 Special Management and FMZ 4- General Management (normal harvesting prescriptions apply) occur within the compartment. Refer to HPOM for more detail. FMZ 2 – No harvesting machinery or harvesting activities are allowed in this/these zones. Prescribed burning is only permitted in these areas where fire does not conflict with underlying protection zones e.g. rainforest, cultural heritage etc. (Refer to cultural heritage flora and fauna sections of this plan and the standard harvest plan conditions for more detail).

IFOA Required Approval of Forestry Activities

Approvals have not been obtained for snig track construction and/or use and log haulage in FMZ 2. If the Contract Coordinator identifies the need for harvesting related activities to occur within FMZ 2 during the operation, the Harvest Planner must be contacted to seek Regional Manager approval. All areas of Rainforest, HCVOG, require prior OEH approval and Stream Exclusion Zones require prior Regional Manager approval before forest harvesting related activities (eg: road or snig track construction & reopening) can be undertaken. It is the responsibility of the Contract Coordinator to identify any exclusion areas which will need to be crossed during harvesting. The Contract Coordinator should then contact the Harvest Planner to obtain the necessary approval.


HP_BB_104_12_v2 23-10-12 11

Cultural Heritage

Cultural Heritage - All relevant representatives have been consulted &/or inspected Compartment 104. Due to the confidentiality of the Cultural Heritage sites, a Cultural Heritage site map will only be attached to the specific copies of the plan. All 10 metre radius exclusion buffers are to be marked in the field as hard exclusion zones (i.e. pink & yellow tape) where logging and/or road works are scheduled to be undertaken. All operators must be taken to each site within the planned area before any activities are commenced.

Flora and Fauna

Refer to TSL Booklet for Conditions Mark-Up Conditions During the pre-harvest mark up the SFO/Contract Coordinator must search for and record threatened species habitat features consistent with Conditions 5.2 and 8.6 of the TSL. Searches for threatened species features must be conducted within that portion of the net planned area where harvesting will occur, and within 50 metres outside this area (eg HCVOG, etc) (conditions 5.1, 5.2 of the TSL). Where any of these features are found, the feature must be recorded, the Harvesting Plan, including the HPOM, must be amended accordingly and the appropriate condition applied. Species adequately covered by general prescriptions: The following species have been recorded in or around the compartments and are adequately covered by the general prescriptions. No further protection measures are required for these species: Sooty Owl (Tyto tenebricosa), Glossy Black-Cockatoo (Calyptorhynchus lathami), Grey-headed Flying Fox (Pteropus poliocephalus).

Legal Conditions

In 2001, the Commonwealth and NSW Governments signed a Southern RegionalForest Agreement which, among other things, allows for the supply of timber for 20years from public lands under the following NSW legislation:

• Forestry Act 1916, and• Forestry & National Park Estate Act 1998

The latter Act provides for the Southern Forest Agreement and Southern IntegratedForest Operations Approval (IFOA), both approved by NSW Government Ministers inMay 2002. This harvest plan is issued under the authority provided within the IFOA.

The IFOA also contains three licences issued under:

• Section 55 of the Protection of the Environment Act 1997 (EPL)• Threatened Species Conservation Act 1995 (TSL).• Section 220ZW of the Fisheries Management Act 1994 (FL).

This harvest plan will be managed in the field under:

• Licences issued under the Forestry Act (1916)• Forest Practices Code part 2 (Timber Harvesting in Native Forests - 1999)

and part 4 (Forest Roads and Fire Trails - 1999)• Standard Harvest Plan Conditions for Native Forest Operations Under the

IFOA, Southern Region-South Coast Area.

Harvesting operations must comply with all of the above Licences and the Code(unless otherwise specified).

Terrain: 0.6%>30°, 3.3% @ 25°-30°, 11.9% @ 20°-25°, 59.5% @10°-20°, 24.6% @ 0°-10° slope.

Time since last burn: 2010

IMPORTANT BURNING PRESCRIPTIONS• A small test burn must always be lit prior to main burn. This will assist in determining FIRE BEHAVIOUR and IGNITION

PATTERNS.

• Seek information from Harvesting Contract Coordinator on regrowth excluded burn areas.

• Sections will be lit by drip torch to a determined ignition pattern.

• Areas will generally be burnt from ridge tops down and into the wind to minimise excessive fire behaviour.

• Minimise fire intensity in regrowth stands.

BURN OBJECTIVES

• Seed bed and/or Lignotuber regeneration event

• To reduce fuel loads to 4-8 tonnes/ha. (assisting future fire suppression)

• A burn coverage between 60-80%

• To contain fire within designated boundaries.

• To observe and record data, assisting in future high fuel load and advanced regrowth area burns.

• To minimise crown scorch; not exceeding 10% of dominant and co-dominant crowns.

• To minimise defect damage to retained regrowth stems.


HP_BB_104_12 05-06-12 36

ENVIRONMENTAL PRESCRIPTIONS

FLORA AND FAUNA:

Refer to Flora and Fauna sections of the Harvest plan document. H & R trees should be raked around if the risk of burning ishigh. Logging slash collected around retained trees should not be burnt.

SOIL, WATER & AQUATIC HABITAT:

Refer to Soils and Water and Drainage Features sections of the Harvest plan document.

• Preferred months of burn – April to September

• Fuel moisture differentials will be utilised to minimise impacts upon drainage features within the burn area

• Note Harvesting of unmapped drainage lines was planned to occur within these compartments. To ensure that >70%ground cover within the modified harvest zone of the unmapped drainage lines is not compromised, the burnsupervisor should pay particular attention to the fuel moister differentials mentioned above and not deliberately burnheads within the modified harvesting zone.

ABORIGINAL CULTURAL HERITAGE:

Refer to the cultural heritage section of the Harvest plan document. Significant sites, e.g. scar trees, groove stones, should beraked around to prevent fire damage. Where practically possible, burning of scattered artefacts should be avoided.
