Plain English Summary

2/10 complexity

This instrument (signed 16 April 2007) repeals the Commonwealth‑adopted recovery plan for the Tasmanian subspecies of the Wedge‑tailed Eagle and adopts the Tasmanian government’s Threatened Tasmanian Eagles Recovery Plan 2006–2010 (with modifications in Schedule 1) as the recovery plan under the EPBC Act. Both the repeal and the new adoption take effect on signing.

It changes which recovery measures apply to the listed eagle and therefore affects landholders, developers and conservation agencies whose activities may trigger EPBC Act approvals or management obligations.
