Dryandra Woodland - Department of Environment and Conservation ...

Inventory, research and monitoring projects should give priority to those values identified as being
most at risk (sensitive to disturbance) and to management practices most likely to have adverse social
and ecological impacts. Such projects should involve volunteers and educational institutions, as well
as CALM staff, thus helping to provide information to the broader community and reducing costs.
OBJECTIVES
• Seek to improve knowledge of the Woodland's conservation, recreation and production resources
so that management can be objectively evaluated and then refined if required.
• Ensure methods and information gained at Dryandra are made available to other land
managers.
STRATEGIES
1. Implement an integrated program of inventory, research and monitoring based on the summary
given in Table 6. Staff from CALM's Science and Information Division, and Wheatbelt Region
Staff should be involved in integrating the program, and should facilitate its implementation.
2. Continue to require all researchers to make their findings readily available to CALM and the
public.
3. Encourage and support other groups, agencies, institutions, volunteers and individuals to carry
out research and monitoring projects relevant to the conservation and management of
Dryandra.
4. Encourage the use of the Settlement and the Irabina Study Centre for research and educational
purposes.
PLAN IMPLEMENTATION
