Areas of Strategic Importance for Growling Grass Frog habitat

dataset: MSA_BCS_GGF_ASI
The Biodiversity Conservation Strategy for Melbourne's Growth Corridors (DEPI 2013a) identified measures for protecting, enhancing and connecting important populations of Growling Grass Frogs within conservation areas and mitigating the losses of habitat that will occur as a result of urban development in Melbourne's growth corridors approved under the strategic assessment. The purpose of the Growling Grass Frog Masterplan for Melbourne's Growth Corridors (Masterplan) is to provide guidance on implementing protection measures and investing in habitat creation and enhancement within Growling Grass Frog conservation areas. This dataset represents areas within the Growling Grass Frog conservation corridors for which particular protection measures are to be implemented.

Description

Title
Areas of Strategic Importance for Growling Grass Frog habitat 
Alternate title
MSA_BCS_GGF_ASI 
Purpose
The primary purpose of Areas of Strategic Importance mapping is to protect existing and potential breeding habitat within Growling Grass Frog conservation areas from incompatible uses. The Areas of Strategic Importance maps are intended to help planners and developers avoid and minimise potential impacts of proposed infrastructure on the critically important parts of the Growling Grass Frog conservation areas. Under condition 2 of the Commonwealth Government's approvals for urban development in Melbourne's growth corridors, actions resulting in a net loss of 'habitat' for matters of national environmental significance, which include Areas of Strategic Importance for GGF habitat, require the agreement of the Commonwealth Minister for the Environment.
