Wyaralong Dam Vegetation Offset Planting Works and Biocondition monitoring

Client: QWI
Scope:
- Establishment and management of 180 ha of native species revegetation works as vegetation offsets within the Wyaralong Dam catchment for the purpose of replacing vegetation inundated by the dam impoundment
- Monitoring method design, sampling design and bio-condition monitoring of revegetation works
- Preparation of detailed maps of small, fragmented planting and enrichment areas in connection with environmental corridor rehabilitation, habitat restoration and vegetation offset plantings and monitoring site locations, including GPS site data collection for subsequent spatial representation of planting boundaries, monitoring point locations
Benefit to Client:
The project provided the client with a cost effective approach to meet development conditions by introducing industrial forestry techniques to a native forest revegetation project.
Capabilities:
- Native Forest Management
- Vegetation and biodiversity offsets
- Spatial data and Geographic information systems
Location: Queensland
Year: 2011 - 2012
