Biodiversity Targets

The following Catchment Condition (CT) and Management Targets (MT) were developed for the Biodiversity theme:

State-wide targets: Increasing native vegetation extent and improving its condition; increasing recovery of threatened species, populations and ecological communities; reducing impact of invasive species; improving the sustainability of key native fauna populations
CT B1 Native vegetation extent: Maintaining the extent of native terrestrial vegetation in all landscapes	MT B1-1 Revegetation to replace clearing: Establishing 2300 ha of native vegetation through revegetation
	MT B1-2 Conservation of indigenous vegetation: Conserving 2300 ha of native vegetation through landholder action
CT B2 Native vegetation condition: Improving native vegetation condition in Mitchell landscapes, priority fauna habitat, and/or areas that are part of the network of regional corridors	MT B2-1 Remnant buffers: Improving condition of native vegetation using active and passive regeneration of buffers around high priority, existing remnants
CT B3 Threatened species: Undertaking actions to assist in conservation of threatened species	MT B3-1 Threatening process management: Identifying and including in management plans activities classified as ‘threatening processes'
	MT B3-2 Threatened species action: Conserving threatened species, endangered populations and communities outside currently protected areas
CT B4 Invasive species: Reducing negative impacts of invasive species	MT B4-1 Weed control: Reducing weeds through primary weed control and eradicating new weed outbreaks and emerging weed threats
	MT B4-2 Maintenance of weed control: Sustaining progress of areas treated for invasive plant control
	MT B4-3 Threatening processes - pest animals: Including populations of invasive pest animal species in TAPs, and managing them according to the priorities in those plans
CT B5 Conditions favouring invasive species: Reducing conditions that favour invasive species through improving ecosystems	MT B5-1 Action to reduce conditions that favour invasive species: Reducing conditions that favour invasive species
CT B6 Key native fauna populations: Improving sustainability of key native fauna populations	MT B6-1 Icon species: Identifying key species and populations through subcatchment action plans
