Informal Reserves.

These include those areas protected by management prescription under the Forest Practices Code or in Forest Management Plans.

Informal Reserves. This comprises elements of the Special Protection Zone (SPZ) in State forest. Values protected by Prescription. This comprises those CAR values protected by prescriptions. The CAR Reserve System covers an area of approximately 780,500 hectares (about half of the public land in the region or 29 per cent of the entire region). Approximately 266,500 hectares have been added to the existing reserve system of 514,000 hectares.
Informal Reserves. This comprises those parts of the Special Management Zone under the Forest Management Zoning system that are greater than 40ha, and wider than 200m, or are directly adjacent to Dedicated Reserves. It also includes those areas dedicated as Crown Reserves under the provisions of the Crown Lands Act 1989 (NSW) and State Recreation Areas which are managed by the NSW National Parks and Wildlife Service. Plans of Management for Crown Reserves will be prepared by 31 January 2006. • Values protected by Prescription. These comprise those elements of habitat protected by Regional Prescriptions as will be detailed in the Integrated Forestry Operations Approval covering the Southern region and areas within the Harvesting Exclusions and Special Prescription Zone under the Forest Management Zoning system that, due to the size or shape, do not meet the Informal Reserve category outlined above. The Integrated Forestry Operations Approval complements the Dedicated and Informal Reserve network and includes additional levels of protection for rare non-commercial forest ecosystems, Old Growth forest, rainforest and threatened species in all areas that have been identified to be primarily managed for sustainable production. 5 NSW will finalise boundaries of the CAR Reserves with the exception of the Forest Management Zoning System by 30 June 2001. The Forest Management Zoning System will be finalised by 31 December 2001. The management intent of the CAR Reserve system as outlined on Map 1 will be implemented immediately upon the signing of this Agreement. Finalisation will include identifying suitable management boundaries. Wherever possible, these will follow easily identifiable features such as cadastre and roads and natural or ecological boundaries. Finalisation will also consider field verification of values being protected and appropriate boundaries mapped to protect the identified values.
Informal Reserves. These areas comprise:
(i) The informal reserves shown on map 2.
(ii) Areas of clumped reserves derived from net harvest area exclusions* including High Conservation Value old growth, forest agreement* negotiated rainforest etc.
(iii) Any other areas determined by SFNSW*. • A new class of Crown Reserve* formally dedicated under the Crown Lands Act 1989. These reserves must be established for the primary purpose of conservation while allowing mineral exploration* and mining*. The following principles must apply to informal reserves*, in accordance with the XXXXX* reserve criteria: - These areas must be reserved for conservation purposes under approved management plans and be managed accordingly. - Changes to the existing areas as defined on Map 2, requires a variation to this agreement and associated public consultation provisions must apply, unless the area is being added to the dedicated reserve system.

They also include elements of the Special Management Zone that are less than 40ha and less than 200m wide. The Integrated Forestry Operations Approvals complement the Dedicated and Informal Reserve network and include protection of rare non-commercial forest types, Old Growth forest, rainforest and threatened species in all areas that have been identified to be primarily managed for sustainable production.
