IBA Conservation

Ideally the conservation status of the IBA will have been checked regularly since the site was first identified in 2004. The most recent assessment (2012) is shown below.

IBA conservation assessment
Year of assessment State Pressure Response
2012 near favourable low high
Whole site assessed? State assessed by Accuracy of information
yes habitat good

State (condition of the trigger species' populations)
Species Reference Actual Units % remaining Result
White Cockatoo Cacatua alba 2,890 10,887 individuals 100 favourable
Chattering Lory Lorius garrulus 21,404 11,741 individuals 55 unfavourable

State (condition of the trigger species' habitats)
Habitat Quantity (% remaining) Quality (% carrying capacity) Result
Forest good (> 90%) moderate (70-90%) near favourable

Pressure (threats to the trigger species and/or their habitats)
Threat Timing Scope Severity Result
Biological resource use happening now small area/few individuals (<10%) moderate to rapid deterioration low
Agricultural expansion and intensification likely in short term (within 4 years) small area/few individuals (<10%) slow but significant deterioration low
Residential and commercial development likely in short term (within 4 years) small area/few individuals (<10%) no or imperceptible deterioration low
Human intrusions and disturbance happening now small area/few individuals (<10%) no or imperceptible deterioration low

Response (conservation actions taken for the trigger species and/or their habitats)
Protected areas Management plan Other action Result
Whole area of site (>90%) covered by appropriate conservation designation A comprehensive and appropriate management plan exists that aims to maintain or improve the populations of qualifying bird species Substantive conservation measures are being implemented but these are not comprehensive and are limited by resources and capacity high
