Under the State Environmental Protection (Clearing Native Vegetation) Regulations<br />

2004 the Conservation Category Wetlands (CCWs) identified by the DEC geomorphic<br />

wetlands dataset are defined as Environmentally Sensitive Areas (ESAs). Exemptions<br />

to the requirements <strong>of</strong> these regulations do not apply within ESAs and therefore the<br />

vegetation surrounding CCWs is more highly protected. There are 21 CCWs areas<br />

within the <strong>Shire</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Kalamunda</strong>. These are shown on Figure 3.<br />
