<strong>Seaford</strong> <strong>Rail</strong> Extension <strong>Vegetation</strong> <strong>Management</strong> <strong>Plan</strong><br />
5.3.1 Weed control<br />
Weed control within Area 8 is targeted within the riparian and outer riparian ecological zones<br />
and is closely aligned with proposed revegetation. Weed control should commence within<br />
proposed revegetation areas then extend to other locations, depending on funding availability.<br />
Major weed species for control include; Olea europaea (Olive), Melaleuca nesophila (Showy<br />
Honey-myrtle) Lycium ferocissimum (African Boxthorn), Acacia cyclops (Western Coast Wattle)<br />
and Lagunaria patersonia (Norfolk Island Hibiscus).<br />
Significant weed infestations are located within the upper slopes of Area 8. These areas have<br />
not been displayed in Figure 9 as control will depend on funding availability from alternative<br />
sources.<br />
Table 26 outlines priority weed species to be targeted within <strong>Management</strong> Area 8. Included are<br />
their distribution and a time and cost estimate for control over five years.<br />
