SPRAT Profile
For information to assist in referral, environmental assessment and compliance issues, refer to the Listing Advice and/or Conservation Advice and Recovery Plan. The Listing and/or Conservation Advice define the national ecological community and may include Key Diagnostic Characteristics, Condition Thresholds, Priority Research and Conservation Actions and additional considerations. In addition, for recovery planning, mitigation and conservation information, refer to the Recovery Plan (where available) or the Conservation Advice.
For ecological communities listed from 2013 onwards, there is no separate listing advice. Instead, the advice from the Threatened Species Scientific Committee regarding the listing status of the ecological community and recommendation regarding a recovery plan are contained within the Conservation Advice.

| Approved Conservation Advice | Department of Agriculture, Water and the Environment (2020). Conservation Advice for the River-flat eucalypt forest on coastal floodplains of southern New South Wales and eastern Victoria. Canberra: Department of Agriculture, Water and the Environment. Available from: http://www.environment.gov.au/biodiversity/threatened/communities/pubs/154-conservation-advice.pdf. In effect under the EPBC Act from 15-Dec-2020. |
| Listing Advice |
Listing assessment information may be available in the Approved Conservation Advice |
| Recovery Plan Decision | Recovery Plan not required, the main threats to the ecological community and the priority actions required to address them are largely understood. The Conservation Advice sufficiently outlines the priority actions needed for this ecological community and many of the threats affecting the ecological community are best managed at a landscape scale, coordinated with the management of other ecological communities. In addition, a number of existing documents are relevant to the management and/or recovery of this ecological community or the threats to it, outlined in Section 4.3 of the Conservation Advice. Therefore, listing under national environment law, provision of the information contained within the Conservation Advice and implementation of the priority conservation actions are sufficient to guide protection and recovery of this ecological community at this time (6/12/2020). |
| Adopted/Made Recovery Plans | There is no adopted or made Recovery Plan for this ecological community |
| Adopted/Made Threat Abatement Plans | No Threat Abatement Plan has been identified as being relevant for this ecological community |

| Distribution Map |
This map has been compiled from datasets with a range of scales and quality. Species or ecological community distributions included in this map are only indicative and not meant for local assessment. Planning or investment decisions at a local scale should seek some form of ground-truthing to confirm the existence of the species or ecological community at locations of interest. Such assessments should refer to the text of the Listing Advice, which is the legal entity protected under the EPBC Act. |
