The overall level of ecological effect of the proposed activities at Gladstone Pit on the freshwater ecological values is assessed as Low. Table 29: Overview of the level of effects resulting from the proposed Gladstone Open Pit. Feature Ecological value Effect Magnitude of effect Effects management Level of effect with management Headwater gully Moderate Loss of 47 m of stream length (~47 m2) High Offset with stream enhancement Low Loss of 0.14 ha of riparian vegetation Moderate Offset with riparian enhancement Low Reduced aquatic connectivity Very Low Offset with riparian enhancement Very Low Sediment intrusions Low Settlement and treatment prior to discharge Low Gladstone wetland Moderate Sediment intrusions Minimal hydrological variation Negligible Low Settlement and treatment prior to discharge Wetland monitoring Negligible Low Overall Moderate Various Negligible to High Low
