Plain English Summary

1/10 complexity

The federal Environment Minister has adopted the ACT Government’s 2005 recovery plan for the Natural Temperate Grassland of the Southern Tablelands as a recovery plan under the EPBC Act, giving the local conservation strategy federal legal force.

That makes the plan binding for federal approval decisions: activities or developments affecting this endangered grassland in the ACT and southern NSW must now account for the plan’s protections, affecting landowners, developers and agencies.
