Priorities at some locations are likely to change within the life of this plan and over-prescribing priorities may reduce plan effectiveness.
Costs are not identified in this plan. Although the additional cost of some actions can be calculated, the cost of most actions is dependent on local priorities for action, the feasibility of actions, whether it is a new or a modification of an existing activity, and the existing capacity that is available to undertake the action. The plan aims to avoid being prescriptive and inflexible, and aims to encourage local adaptation and autonomy by land managers when implementing actions. The recovery team can be contacted to provide up-to-date advice on the prioritisation of funding and resources.

6.3                 Actions
This plan aims to ensure that lack of scientific certainty is not used as a reason to delay on-ground action. It is acknowledged that the effect of each action will not be known without monitoring and analysis, and the combined effectiveness of actions requires research and governance through an adaptive management framework. It is also acknowledged that negative effects may occur and may remain undetected where such systems are not in place. However, if there are sufficient resources available to undertake the necessary research, these actions should not be delayed until the associated research is completed.
Actions have been framed at a high level to allow an adaptive and flexible approach to implementation that responds to variation in conservation needs across the range, as well as new information as it becomes available.
Partners identified as having an interest in contributing to the implementation of an action are listed against each action. Inclusion in this list means that the partner either intends to consider implementing the action provided they have access to adequate resources, capacity and support partnerships, or otherwise has an interest in contributing to the action.
Note: As bilbies are mobile and move within the landscape according to resource availability, the term 'site' is intended to encompass the area within which a population or group of bilbies may range over generations. For a full explanation of the term 'site', see Box 3 What is a bilby site?
Bilby sites and partners have only been identified to the extent practicable during the development of this plan. It is expected that further bilby sites will be identified during the life of this plan, and the land manager, with assistance from the recovery team, will identify relevant recovery actions for those sites. Ongoing consultation with conservation organisations, Traditional Owners, Indigenous rangers, state and territory government conservation agencies, and other land managers is necessary to identify further sites relevant to this plan.
Sites identified in the plan are shown on maps available with this
