Threatened species

Priority actions by type of threatened species

The Department of Environment and Conservation has prepared a Priorities Action Statement (PAS) to promote the recovery of threatened species and the abatement of key threatening processes in New South Wales.

The Priorities Action Statement identifies a number of broad strategies to help threatened plants and animals recover in New South Wales. Each of these strategies have more specific priority actions within them.

Select an item from the list below to see priority actions for all species of that type.

Liaise with Armidale PWD and UNE to confirm all known sites and develop and implement a program to monitor impacts from known threats. Bertya ingramii Narrow-leaved Bertya Plant > Shrubs High
Continue/commence monitoring of all known sites, including the impacts of humans, goats, insect larvae and native herbivores. Bertya ingramii Narrow-leaved Bertya Plant > Shrubs High
In conjunction with monitoring, assess the need to fence off areas/individuals to provide protection from native herbivore grazing. Bertya ingramii Narrow-leaved Bertya Plant > Shrubs High
Develop a translocation proposal for the species and determine a threshold level at which implementation of the proposal should be considered. Bertya ingramii Narrow-leaved Bertya Plant > Shrubs High
