Component Strategy with spatial implications Strategy without spatial implications
Flora 1. Conserve the diversity of plants
that are indigenous to the region
at species, population and
community level.
2. Conserve sensitive plant habitats
as indicated by CAPE, SKEP and
STEP.
3. Establish an additional biosphere
reserve in the region.
4. Establish a system of protected
nature areas.
5. Establish bioregional
conservancies.
6. Promote the establishment of
Special Management Areas.
Fauna
1. Consolidate and extend the natural
habitats of the indigenous animal
communities of the region.
2. Consolidate the natural habitats of
endangered animal species.
1. Conserve the diversity of plants that are indigenous to the municipal area at species, population and community level;
2. Identify and conserve all known sensitive habitats;
3. Maintain or simulate natural disturbance regimes;
4. Control all infestations and alien plants;
5. Institute effective environmental education;
6. Regulate flower shows;
7. Maintain minimum viable populations of rare endemic plant species;
8. Prevent local extinction of rare endemic species;
9. Mitigate the negative effects of disasters;
10. Protect rare and endemic plant species;
11. Promote the sustainable utilisation of indigenous flora for financial benefit;
12. Promote the value of indigenous flora;
13. Regulate harvesting of natural plant products;
14. Regulate grazing in accordance with agricultural stocking rates;
15. Promote the sustainable utilisation of forests for the benefits of local economy and communities;
16. Regulate afforestation;
17. Rehabilitate afforested areas in catchment areas;
18. Determine feasibility of alternative farming options.
1. Conserve the natural habitats of the indigenous animals of the region;
2. Conserve all sensitive animal habitats;
3. Control all alien animal species;
4. Locate sensitive or threatened habitats;
5. Conserve the diversity of animals that are indigenous to the ODM at all levels;
6. Re-introduce species that historically occurred in the region;
7. Activate and/or support natural population dynamics to recreate historical species diversity;
8. Simulate or replicate natural disturbance regimes;
9. Regulate artificial distribution of endemic species;
10. Regulate the utilisation of renewable animal resources;
11. Institute contingency measures to mitigate negative impact disasters;
12. Maintain minimum viable populations of rare and endemic animal species;
13. Maintain population dynamics of rare endemic species;
