EPA Recommendations In 1962, a subcommittee of the Australian Academy of Science (WA) made a series of recommendations with respect to National Parks and Nature Reserves within the State. These recommendations were reviewed in 1972 by the Conservation Through Reserves Committee at the request of the EPA (EPA 1976). The Committee, upon assessing State Forests 51 and 53 (the recommendations did not extend to include State forest 52), made the following comments and recommendations: 'The Committee emphasises the outstanding value of the Dryandra area as wildlife habitat. This is due largely to the protection and management which the area has hitherto received from the Forests Department. In view of both the current specialised staff and the knowledge of forestry management possessed by the Forests Department, the Committee recommends: 1. that State forests 51 and 53 remain dedicated to that purpose; 2. that the following reserves be included in the State forest: Reserve Purpose Vesting_______________ 16201 Water Supply Min. for Water Supply 18856 Timber (Mallet) not vested 25768 Timber (Mallet) not vested 31670 Prot. of Native Fauna not vested 26643 Cons. of Flora & Fauna WA Wildlife Authority 31378 Cons. of Flora & Fauna not vested 3. that no further portions of Dryandra Forest be planted with pines or other exotic species; 4. that if any of the mallet plantations are felled they be regenerated to natural bush; and 5. that the area be managed by the Forests Department as though it were a fauna and flora reserve and that if at any time the area is relinquished by the Forests Department it be made a Class 'A' reserve for the Conservation of Flora and Fauna, vested in the WA Wildlife Authority' (CTRC 1974). These recommendations were supported by the EPA and later endorsed by State Cabinet in 1976. Under the former Forests Department's General Working Plans Nos 86 and 87 (Forests Department 1977, 1982) and more recently CALM's policies, recommendations 1, 2 and 3 have been implemented. Recommendation 5 has been largely implemented as the majority of State forest 51 (Lol Gray) is managed for habitat protection. 4
