Action 6.7:Investigate and map cave stream systems to establish direction of flow and connections between cavesystems, and between surface hydrology (seeps and springs). Management of these catchmentsshould aim to retain the present hydrological balance.Priority: 1Action 6.8:Provide specific regulations regarding cave management and protection in the CALM Act. In thelonger term, the need for specific legislation should be investigated.Priority: 1Action 6.9:With the exception of recognised tourist and adventure caves, remove the location of other cavesfrom existing published maps when these maps are revised.Priority: Ongoing7.0 VEGETATIONThe Study Area comprises diverse and complex vegetation associations. The conservation of thesesystems is a primary objective of this management plan.STRATEGYSix species, Wurmbea sp., Kennedia macrophylla, Caladenia sp. (Dunsborough), Caladenia sp.(LeeuwinNaturaliste), Caladenia sp. (coastal plain) and Caladenia sp. (jarrah forest), occur within theStudy Area and have been gazetted under the Wildlife Conservation Act (1950) as Rare Flora.Permission is required from the Minister for Conservation and Land Management for any operationswhich effect such flora.Within the Study Area there are numerous other species which are potentially rare, endangered orbeyond their normal range of distribution. Protection of any such species should be afforded priorityin the order in which these plants are listed in Table 3. Further, there are a series of associations withunusual structure or distribution which are poorly represented in reserves elsewhere.Operations which may adversely effect these associations should occur outside these sensitive areas.19
Natural processes and human activity has resulted in the erosion of a number of exposed coastalareas. Regeneration of degraded areas will be necessary, particularly those areas which are subject toheavy visitor pressures (see Section 5).Currently, there is a lack of information pertaining to the regeneration period of vegetationassociations, particularly the coastal heath, following a wildfire. Research and monitoring of theseassociations will be necessary to provide for future management strategies.Parts of the Study Area are bounded by privately owned uncleared land. To allow efficientmanagement of the National Park, the Department of Conservation and Land Management couldenter into joint management with the owners.20
