Other maps included with this plan are Locality, Forest Type and Roading. Description of Proposal

Harvesting of Hardwood forest Harvesting of Hardwood forest using Single Tree Selection, Silviculture subject to the Southern 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 markets are available. Parts of felled logs that do not meet high quality log specifications are segregated and graded into other classifications such as salvage sawlogs, pulp logs & miscellaneous timbers e.g. split & round posts, firewood, mining timbers & craftwood. The availability of miscellaneous timbers depends mainly on forest types, log defectiveness & market conditions at the time of harvesting. Clause 22 – Integrated Forestry Operations Approval (IFOA) Consideration All relevant factors have been reviewed taking into account the volume and monetary value of each forest product to supply Term Agreement Holders. The harvesting operation also complies with Clause 22 of the IFOA. Attachment 1: Site Safety Plan prescribes safety requirements and Medical Emergency Evacuation Plan for this harvesting operation.

Attachment 2: Roading plan prescribes roading requirements for this harvesting operation. Appendix 3: Details prescribed burning requirements for the harvesting operation. Abbreviations used in this plan

Hazard Nos. 1/2/3/5/6 are shown on the attached HPOM. Risk ratings are in accordance with FCNSW Document “Risk Management Assessment Matrices, TRIM No. D00143573 Version No.: 1 Issue Date: June 2013 Review Date: June 2014 “. Traffic management/road closures This plan identifies haulage from the compartment will be either:

1. From 3108/1 Road: turning right Comans Road, right onto Comerang Road and right onto Nerrigundah Ridge Road (all FCNSW owned). From Nerrigundah Ridge Road, turning left (east) onto Nerrigundah Ridge Road (80km/hr) and left onto Eurobodalla Road (both Eurobodalla Shire Council Owned).

The intersection of Nerrigundah Ridge Road and Nerrigundah Mountain Road as been assessed and does not meet the minimum required sight distance of 160m on both approaches. Therefore prior to haulage commencing, a suitably qualified person must implement “TCP_195_NerrigundahMountainRd_Cpt3211” (attached to this harvest plan) at this intersection.

2. From 3108/3 Road: Left onto 3109/2 Road (FCNSW Owned Road), right onto Gulph Creek Road (FCNSW owned, becoming Eurobodalla Shire Council Owned at the end of the State Forest). From Gulph Creek Road haulage continues along Eurobodalla Shire Council Owned Moruya Street, Nerrigundah Mountain Road and Eurobodalla Roads.

Road intersections outside the control of FCNSW are not covered by this plan or any FCNSW Traffic Control Plan. Haulage contractors must abide by RMS road laws and standard operating procedures in relation to haulage routes outside the control of FCNSW. Dust, noise and school bus routes Dust and noise – Where log haulage routes pass close to rural housing along natural surface/gravel roads dust and noise must be minimised to the greatest extent practicable. Trucks should reduce speed, restrict use to daylight hours and minimise the use of engine brakes through these areas.

School bus route - Nerrigundah township, Nerrigundah Mountain Road and Eurobodalla road is used by school buses between the hours of 7:00am to 8:30 am and 3:00pm to 5.0pm. On weekdays, to the greatest extent practicable, log haulage should avoid school bus times on the above roads.

Silvicultural Planning-Single Tree Selection The STS tract (268ha) is a predominantly mature aged forest and will be harvested under a heavy single tree selection (STS) regime. The objective within the 268ha harvest area for this operation (Resource Unit 1) is to remove 45% of the basal area to create canopy openings for regeneration, whilst retaining and minimising damage to young regenerating stems, seed trees, habitat and recruitment trees.

It is envisaged that the next harvesting operation in this compartment would be on average 30 years time.

The STS tract for IFOA purposes includes the harvest area of Compartment 3108 as indicated on the HPOM.

Single Tree Selection (STS) must remove no more than 45% of the basal area (BA), while retaining a minimum BA of 10m2 per hectare within the tract.

Resource Unit

(Refer to HPOM for

detail)

Species Composition Stand History Stand Structure and Condition

1 Overstorey dominated by silvertop ash, stringybark (white and yellow), brown barrel and manna gum.

Ridge tops and gently sloping areas have undergone heavy STS silviculture in the early 70’s. The steeper areas were subject to less intensive harvest and some areas have remained unharvested.

The ridgetops comprise of an even aged stand of advanced regrowth silvertop ash of good form and vigour. These stands are generally suited to a lighter cut to concentrate growth on the retained stems into future high quality sawlogs. The remaining area comprises an uneven aged mature to overmature stand of trees which are reaching their end point. This stand would benefit from a heavy cut to promote regeneration.

Silvicultural Treatment

1 100 STS heavy: • Retain and protect from harvesting/fire damage:

-poles/advanced growth (<40cm DBHOB) with good form and vigour, -habitat and recruitment trees as per TSL,

• Retained trees should be evenly spaced throughout the resource unit.

• Ensure no more than 45% of the BA within the resource unit is removed, while retaining a minimum BA of 10m2 per hectare within the tract.

• All other products should be removed markets permitting. If this objective cannot be achieved the following options should be considered: -reject tree felling (CC must first obtain approval from HTL), -defer harvesting until ideal market conditions prevail,

-consider harvesting under a light or medium STS regime

Note: The area of each silvicultural treatment must be mapped and recorded in the Post logging information section of this plan. Special Requirements

Noxious Weeds/Disease/Pests Hygiene Requirements Compartment 3108 is within Eurobodalla Shire Council which is a designated red zone for Myrtle Rust. In order to prevent the spread of Myrtle Rust all harvesting machinery, equipment and vehicles heading west from Eurobodalla Shire Council must be inspected for vegetation containing Myrtle Rust and if present be washed down prior to leaving this local government area.

Permanent Growth and Research Plots Any inventory plots located during the harvesting operation are to be treated the same as the surrounding area. Occupation Permits Apiary 1 apiary site provided in the table below is located within the planning unit as detailed in the table below. Contact details are available from the Batemans Bay office.

Name Boundary Location

• The Contract Coordinator must provide the apiary permittees with at least two weeks advance notice when bee boxes need to be removed or relocated.

Forest Management Zoning

FMZ 3A - Harvesting Excluded (50 either side) and FMZ 4- General Management (normal harvesting prescriptions apply) occur within the compartment. Refer to HPOM for more detail. FMZ 3A – Logging operations are restricted as per condition 18(b) of the IFOA. Refer to Standard Harvest Plan Conditions for Hardwood Forest Operations in Southern Region, South Coast for detail of what logging operations are permitted in this zone. Within compartment 3108 the FMZ 3A is also an owl landscape or ridge and headwater exclusion, therefore burning is to be excluded from this zone.

IFOA Required Approval of Forestry Activities

Regional Manager approvals have been obtained for routine road maintenance and log haulage in FMZ 3A (C3). No other crossings of this feature or other activities are approved. Forestry Operations within the plan area must minimise impacts to the exclusion zones and meet the requirements of the EPL and General Exclusion Zones in section of this plan. All areas of Rainforest and Stream Exclusion Zones require prior Regional Manager approval before forest harvesting related activities (eg: road or snig track construction & road reopening) can be undertaken. It is the responsibility of the CC to identify any exclusion areas which will need to be crossed during harvesting. The CC should then contact the Harvest Planner to obtain the necessary approval. Cultural Heritage

Flora and Fauna

Species adequately covered by general prescriptions: The following species have been recorded in or around the compartment and are adequately covered by the general prescriptions. No further protection measures are required for these species: Sooty Owl (Tyto tenebricosa), Olive Whistler (Pachycephala olivacea), Glossy Black-Cockatoo (Calyptorhynchus lathami), Little Lorikeet (Glossopsitta pusilla) and Gang Gang Cockatoo (Callocephalon fimbriatum).

# for this operation FCNSW has chosen to harvest this area without EPL coverage. All EPL conditions continue to apply except for the rules applying to filter strips, protection zones and operational zones of the unmapped drainage lines. Refer to Best Management Practices for unmapped drainage lines in the standard conditions. Harvesting of unmapped drainage lines, MUST NOT occur in unmapped drainage lines which are running or holding water. It is the responsibility of the CC to inspect each unmapped drainage line prior to harvesting it, to determine if it is running or holding water. Log Dump Location 15 log dumps are indicated on the HPOM. Field location of log dumps must utilise the most level site available consistent with the location indicated on the HPOM. Inherent hazard level 2 Conditions 26, 27, 28, 30, 31 and 33 of Schedule 4 of the EPL must apply. Note dump 1 is to the west of Comans Road in adjacent compartment 3124 which was harvested in 2013-2014.

Drainage Feature Crossings Six road crossings (C1-C6) and no snig track crossings are approved for use on drainage features. (Refer to HPOM). Road crossing details are contained in Attachment 2 of this Plan. Mass Movement There is evidence of mass movement in compartment 3108 (refer to HPOM). This area is to be excluded from harvesting and snigging. Any additional mass movement found during the operation is to be excluded from harvesting and snigging. To minimise the risk of further mass movement occurring the following conditions apply to snig tracks constructed in compartment 3108:

• The construction of new snig tracks should not involve side cuts of greater than 1.5 metre batter height.

• Wherever possible snig tracks should follow the terrain rather than sidecut across contours, particularly where the slope exceeds 25º.

• Any old snig tracks on slopes up to 30º (including side cut snig tracks) that are showing no sign of mass movement may be used provided they can be satisfactory drained to EPL specifications.


HP_BB_3108_13 30-01-14 14

Suitability of existing log dams and gully stuffers There are no known log dams or gully stuffers on snig track or road crossings in the compartments. Condition 47 of Schedule 4 of the EPL must apply. Pre-Operational Briefing

I acknowledge that I have received a copy of the Harvesting Plan for Compartment 3108 in Dampier State Forest and that I have been briefed on the conditions of the Plan and understand the supervision and operational control requirements as explained to me by the HTL or his/her delegate.

ATTACHMENT 3 POST-HARVEST BURNING PLAN

This burn plan has been planned and must be implemented in accordance with: Bushfire Environmental Assessment Code (and accompanying Bush Fire Hazard Reduction Certificate).

χ

Southern Region IFOA*

ü

*This burn plan will be managed in accordance with the principles detailed in the FCNSW Corporate Fuel Management Plan 2008. All practical measures will be taken to ensure fire is contained within predetermined control lines and to prevent entry into exclusion areas. However due to the unpredictable nature of fire from time to time fire may escape the containment lines and enter exclusion zones. In these instances the Burn Supervisor should consider suitable strategies to manage the escaped fire.

PLANNING INFORMATION

Planned Burn Area: NHA of compartment 3108, Dampier State Forest LGA: Eurobodalla.

Refer to Area Identification and Yield Estimates section of harvest plan.

Season: autumn / winter / spring Bush Fire Management Zone: Land Management Zone (LMZ).

BURN OBJECTIVES

• Promote regeneration of eucalypt species • Protect & enhance ecological communities

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

• A burn coverage between 60-80% of harvested area.

• To contain fire within harvested area.

• To minimise mortality in trees retained under condition 5.6 of TSL (H & R trees and feed trees).

• To minimise defect damage to retained regrowth stems.

CRITICAL AND NON CRITICAL BOUNDARIES

A summary of critical boundaries where burning must be excluded are listed below (refer to harvest plan and

BOM for further details).

Critical boundaries within the planned compartment:

• Exclusions for ridge and headwater, owl landscape and probable rainforest.

• Note the majority of the FMZ 3A doubles as either a ridge and headwater or owl landscape, therefore it

should be treated as a critical boundary for the operation.

Critical boundaries outside the planned compartment:

• Exclusions for ridge and headwater, owl landscape and probable rainforest.

REGIONAL BURNING GUIDELINES

Max Temp (°C): 25 Min RH (%) : 30 Max Wind Speed (km/h): < 20 Southerly aspect < 15 Northerly aspect Max BKDI:< 70 Max FDI: 8 ( subject to area assessment). Scorch Height: 0.6 x dominant tree height


HP_BB_3108_13 30-01-14 27

Max Fuel Moisture Range: 12-25% Max Rate of Spread: 300m/hr. Average Flame height: up to 4m

BURN AREA INFORMATION

Fine Fuel loads: 50-150 tons per hectare of logging slash, 10 – 20 tons per hectare in between tree heads.

Fuel arrangement: Multi-tiered structure (litter, grasses, shrubs, eucalypt regeneration and mature trees)

Terrain (gross area): 15%>30°, 28% @ 25°-30°, 27% @ 20°-25°, 25% @10°-20°, 5% @ 0°-10° slope.

Time since last burn: 2005 (hazard reduction)

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 CC 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.

• Where one or more of the parameters detailed in the regional burning guidelines is not met, burning may still be

conducted provided the other parameters will provide favourable conditions for burning to meet the burn

objectives. Any decision to conduct burning outside of the parameters must be fully documented by the Burning

Supervisor in the field copy of the burn plan.

ENVIRONMENTAL PRESCRIPTIONS

FLORA AND FAUNA: Refer to Flora and Fauna sections of the Harvest plan document. The burn crew should be aware of and look for any H & R trees, Allocasuarina feed trees, eucalypt feed trees, stags or yellow bellied glider/squirrel glider sap trees where logging debris is stacked >1m high within the 5m radius of the tree. If any are found, minimise damage to these trees by not directly lighting within 5m of the tree. SOIL, WATER & AQUATIC HABITAT:

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

• Preferred months of burn – March to August

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

• 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 burn supervisor should pay particular attention to the fuel moisture content of unmapped drainage line and not deliberately burn heads within the modified harvesting zone.

ABORIGINAL CULTURAL HERITAGE: Refer to the cultural heritage section of the Harvest plan document to determine if there are any sites and if so refer to the cultural heritage map for the location of the sites. Significant sites, e.g. scar trees, groove stones, should be raked around to prevent fire damage. It is not necessary to exclude fire from isolated finds, artefact scatters or open camp sites.

Where this is not practical, it is NOT necessary to

construct a bare earth break along boundary of the

exclusion; the practice of no direct ignition will be

followed.

Scar trees, grinding grooves, nest trees, quality

regrowth discovered during the harvesting

operation.

Design snig track patterns so they double as bare

earth containment lines. Where this is not practical,

CC/SFO to instruct contractor to construct a bare

earth break (drained as per EPL snig track

conditions) along boundary of the exclusion (after

seeking approval from OTL).
