The Biodiversity Conservation Strategy for Melbourne's Growth Corridors (BCS) prepared as part of the Melbourne Strategic Assessment specifies that salvage and/or translocation of plants and animals may be required before the removal of native vegetation or habitat for urban development in Melbourne's growth corridors. This dataset identifies land parcels under the Biodiversity Conservation Strategy that may be subject to the salvage and translocation process, as defined by the Salvage and Translocation Protocol for Melbourne's Growth Corridors (DEPI, 2013). Salvage may be required for the following target species and communities listed under the Commonwealth Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999 (EPBC Act) and Victorian Flora and Fauna Guarantee Act 1988 (FFG Act): - Spiny Rice-flower, Matted Flax-lily and other grassland plants - Striped Legless Lizard - Seasonal Herbaceous Wetlands (Freshwater) of the Temperate Lowland Plains. Land parcels which contain a set of conditions for each of the above species/communities will trigger a salvage and translocation procedure to be enacted in accordance with the Protocol.
