Birds Australia - Important Bird Areas (IBA)

Important Bird Areas (IBAs) are sites of global bird conservation importance. Each IBA meets one of four global criteria used by BirdLife International. IBAs are priority areas for bird conservation - Birds Australia aim to monitor birds at theIBAs, advocate their importance to government, and work with land-holders and other local people to conserve them.

IBAs are a site-scale conservation prioritisation only and do not imply unimportance of excluded areas. Areas not designated as Important Bird Areas may also be important for bird conservation, especially for species such as arid country and savanna species whose conservation is best addressed at landscape-scales rather than site-scales.Restricted
Birds Australia freely allows non-commercial copying and distribution of the Important Bird Areas geodatabase. Data should be cited on all electronic and hard copy products using the language as written below. Commercial use of the Important Bird Area data is prohibited. 

Citation: When the IBA geodatabase is used any printed or digital products, it shall be cited as: "Birds Australia (2009) Important Bird Areas of Australia. Downloaded from http://www.birdsaustralia.com.au/ibas".
Comprehensive site specific surveys have not been conducted for each IBA, therefore, these data are not a definitive statement of the presence or absence of any species at any location. These data should not be considered a substitute for on-site surveys that may be required for an environmental assessment, environmental impact statement, or conservation planning.

Birds Australia makes no warranty, expressed or implied, as to the use or appropriateness of use of the enclosed data, nor are there warranties of merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose or use.

Boundaries are based on known distributions of key birds, key habitats and/or expert opinion. Cadastral boundaries may be used where more practicable. However protected areas are preferentially chosen for any IBAs nominated solely for 'restricted-range' (A2) species. IBAs therefore commonly include a variety of land ownerships and uses. All major land-holders will be consulted directly or through appropriate umbrella land-use organisations

CLM - Orara-Bungawalbin bedrock

## **Abstract** 

The dataset was derived by the Bioregional Assessment Programme from multiple source datasets. The source datasets are identified in the Lineage field in this metadata statement. The processes undertaken to produce this derived dataset are described in the History field in this metadata statement. 



This polygon shapefile shows the extent of the Bungawalbin member (Orara Formation). It has been created from a preliminary datasets provided by the NSW Geological Survey (not released as of August 2014). The original shapefile consisted of multiple polygons that have been separated for example where alluvia overlie this bedrock unit. The boundaries have been dissolved using GoCAD&trade; (Paradigm Geophysical Pty Ltd) 3D geological modelling software to also include the extent of this unit where it is not present at the surface. The final shapefile represents the extent of the unit at the surface and in the subsurface. 



This dataset was created by the Bioregional Assessment Program in the understanding that the preliminary work done by NSW Geological Survey may change but was the best available source data at the time. NSW Geological Survey bear no responsibility for any errors in this dataset.

## **Dataset History** 

This shapefile shows the extent of the Bungawalbin Member (part of the Orara Formation) in the CLM bioregion. It is modified from a preliminary datasets provided by the NSW Geological Survey (not released as of August 2014). 



In some areas, the exact extent of the Bungawalbin Member is not well constrained, as this bedrock unit is covered by younger rocks (e.g. volcanic rocks) or alluvium. Where this is the case, the original maps which only show the presence of the Bungawalbin Member at the surface have been combined with geological expert knowledge and manual interpolation (digitizing)  using GoCAD&trade; (Paradigm Geophysical Pty Ltd) 3D geological modelling software to also include the extent of this unit where it is not present at the surface. The final shapefile has been created from all sources and expert knowledge in GoCAD.

NSW CSG Exclusion Zone - Additional  Rural Village Area v2 20140516

## **Abstract** 

The dataset was derived by the Bioregional Assessment Programme. This dataset was derived from multiple datasets. You can find a link to the parent datasets in the Lineage Field in this metadata statement. The History Field in this metadata statement describes how this dataset was derived.



Additional Rural Village Land is land zoned R5 large lot residential (or equivalent) that meets defined 'village' criteria. It is proposed that coal seam gas activities will be prohibited in and within two kilometres of these areas.



Note a 2 km buffer was placed by ERIN around the extent of the Strategic Agricultural Land SAL Viticulture Critical Industry Cluster areas. The original data does not contain a 2 km buffer zone around future residential growth areas.







The spatial layers developed by the Bioregional Assessment programme are not available to be downloaded.

## **Purpose** 

As above

## **Dataset History** 

In 2012, the NSW Government introduced the Strategic Regional Land Use Policy (SRLUP) to better manage the potential conflicts arising from the proximity of mining and coal seam gas (CSG) activity to our high quality agricultural land, in some parts of the State.

 

Since the introduction of the Policy the Government has introduced safeguards for some 5.3 million hectares of residential and strategic agricultural land across the State from the impacts of new coal seam gas and mining activity.



Additional Rural Village Land is an area of interest that the Government has introduced safeguard from the impacts of new coal seam gas and mining activity.



Additional Rural Village Land is land zoned R5 large lot residential (or equivalent) that meets defined 'village' criteria. It is proposed that coal seam gas activities will be prohibited in and within two kilometres of these areas.



Note a 2 km buffer was placed by ERIN around the extent of the Strategic Agricultural Land SAL Viticulture Critical Industry Cluster areas. The original data does not contain a 2 km buffer zone around Additional Rural Village Land areas.



The Existing Residential Zones was downloaded from the NSW Government Planning and Environment website 31/1/2014.
