This map has been compiled from existing landscape scale datasets that do notspecifically map the defined national ecological community (EC) and vary in scale andaccuracy. Polygon outlines have been enlarged to improve visibility. Ground-truthingis required to verify the presence of the EC for site based projects, planning orinvestment decisions. Such decisions should refer to the text of the Listing Advice atwww.environment.gov.au/cgi-bin/sprat/public/sprat.pl.For current information published by the Department on your area of interest you areadvised to use the Protected Matters Search Tool atwww.environment.gov.au/epbc/pmst/index.html
