Property Assessment for High Conservation Value Property: Calvert Date: 7 September 2012 Address: Crescent Road, Simpson Assessment result: High Conservation Value (3.0) The conservation value of each Forest Management Unit (FMU) was assessed according to the High Conservation Value Forest Toolkit (Jennings et. al. 2003). A preliminary desktop study was undertaken using the EPBC Protected Matters Search Tool and the DSE Biodiversity Interactive Map to identify threatened flora and fauna species or their habitat that is known, likely or may occur within 5 km of the FMU. Potential cultural significance of properties was examined from heritage certificates and advice from the Victorian Aboriginal Heritage Register. Habitat hectare assessments were subsequently undertaken to assess the quality of any native vegetation that occurred within the FMU. The results of the assessment to determine whether the FMU is considered High Conservation Value are detailed in Table 1. A site inspection and habitat hectare assessment is yet to be undertaken at this site. Table 1. High Conservation Value Assessment.
