here), and if a new watering point was established further towards Mitchell this
difference in distance would not disadvantage drovers.
It is also recommended that there should be no camping of stock overnight in the
vicinity and stock should be expedited through the park. This would not
inconvenience drovers either as there is minimal stock feed at this site. Designated
overnight camping zones would prevent overgrazing of priority species, or trampling
of the habitat of another priority species – the collared delma (Delma torquata).
Consideration should be given to develop a comprehensive zoned management plan
along the Morven to Mitchell section of stock route P002, as there are five priority
species (ooline, womal (Acacia maranoensis), painted honeyeater (Grantiella picta),
collared delma (Delma torquata), and diamond firetail (Stagonopleura guttata)) and
three identified biodiversity hotspots along this route that are currently being
considered in isolation. Management of specific sites may need to include some
fencing of ooline and womal (Acacia maranoensis) in the more vulnerable locations.
