Site-specific Assessments of Environmental Effects

B-1 - Area 1, Coromandel Forest Park – Assessment of Environmental Effects 94 Actual or Potential Effect Recommended Mitigation / Management Recommended Monitoring / Future Action Additional Measures Proposed by OGNZL Management measures for terrestrial invertebrates; A requirement to develop and adhere to a CFP KDMP Limit the disturbance area for the vent raise site to a 12 m x 12 m area; Vegetation shall be tied back to minimise vegetation clearance; Retain topsoil, felled trees, slash and other leafy material to assist in restoring any areas which are disturbed during construction; Rehabilitate any areas that were disturbed during construction; Adhere to the requirements of the national Frog Hygiene Protocol to minimise the possible spread of chytrid fungus and other pathogens to, within the CFP. Vegetation loss at vent raise sites. Offset the temporary loss of habitat at these vent shaft sites by enhancement planting of a total of 4.15 ha on the north east ridge of Area 2 to connect the CFP with a forest fragment on that site. Further replanting of approximately 55,000 m2 on the boundary of the CFP and Willows Road Farm is also proposed as part of the additional ecological benefit. Annual monitoring and maintenance of the offset site. None. Spread of weeds and pests during construction of vent raises. All equipment to be used for all vent raise construction activities is to be clean and free of any exotic weed and seed material prior to entry to the site. Regular weed surveillance. None.
