7.3.2             Social and economic considerations
The implementation of this recovery plan is unlikely to cause significant adverse social and economic impacts. Habitat issues and likely impact on landholders have been considered in the Coastal Bioregions Regional Vegetation Management Codes for Broadscale Clearing and for Ongoing Clearing Purposes developed under the Vegetation Management Act 1999. The use of economic incentives for landholders to retain and manage Mahogany Glider habitat for conservation purposes is subject to funding or establishment of landholder initiative programs.

7.4                 Affected interests
There are a range of land management uses within or adjacent to Mahogany Glider habitat. These include protected area estate, improved pasture and other forms of grazing, sugarcane, Caribbean pine plantations, bananas, pineapples, aquaculture and semi-rural development.
Although its distribution is restricted to the southern Wet Tropics coastal lowlands, the Mahogany Glider lives on land tenures owned or managed by various authorities and landholders, including:
    * DES
    * First Nations People communities, councils and representative bodies
    * Hancock's Queensland Plantations
    * Hinchinbrook and Cardwell Shires
    * Powerlink and Ergon Energy
    * Private landholders and lessees
    * Queensland Department of Agriculture and Fisheries (DAF)
    * Queensland Department of Natural Resources, Mines and Energy (DNRME)
    * Queensland Rail
    * TMR.
In addition, there are a number of conservation and land management agencies that invest considerable cooperative expertise into recovery efforts towards the Mahogany Glider, including:
    * Girringun Aboriginal Corporation and Girringun Ranger program
    * Peak conservation groups including the WPSQ, Tully Branch
    * Scientific research organisations, including CSIRO and universities
    * Terrain NRM.
This recovery plan recognises the multiple land uses and values within the Mahogany Glider's distribution so, wherever possible, recovery actions are designed to advance the aspirations of all
