Impacts on ecologically valuable Sample Clauses

Impacts on ecologically valuable species a) An ‘ecologically valuable species’ is a native species that makes a significant contribution to national biodiversity due to factors such as: i) it being a keystone species, meaning a species that provides an essential role in the ecosystem in which it resides. An example of a keystone species is a species of gum tree that provides an over-storey to a xxxx ecosystem and hence support for many animals, birds, invertebrates, soil microbes etc; or ii) the phylogenetic distinctiveness of the species. For example, the cassowary, strangler fig, spinifex, Xxxxxxxx grass, the Australian salamanderfish and the Australian lung fish. b) This sub-criterion is met if the pest or disease would likely have a significant impact on the conservation status of an ecologically valuable species. c) The following guideline will help with determining whether item 2.3(b) of this schedule is established: i) An incident of a pest or disease will have a significant impact on the conservation status of an ecologically valuable species where it is likely that the incident will or could: (A) substantially modify (including by fragmenting habitats, altering fire regimes, altering nutrient cycles or altering hydrological cycles), displace, destroy or isolate a significant proportion of the habitat of an ecologically valuable species; or (B) seriously disrupt the lifecycle (breeding, feeding, migration or resting behaviour) of an ecologically significant proportion of the population of an ecologically valuable species.
