Caretaker Conventions

This group of layers provides information on select species or groups of plants species that are of conservation interest or listed as threatened (Endangered, Critically Endangered, Vulnerable) under the ACT Nature Conservation Act 2014 or the Commonwealth Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation (EPBC) Act 1999. A location without species mapped as present can be considered data deficient.

This table is the site location meta data for the ACT streamflow and rainfall data - daily data, and the ACT streamflow and rainfall data - point data datasets.

Invasive plant control on ACT public land in 2020-21. This Operations Dashboard summarises delivery of the ACT Parks - Invasive Plants Program https://actgov.maps.arcgis.com/apps/MapJournal/index.html?appid=cd59d70662c94c75a0492635f7925384#

This plan is for invasive plant control on public land in the Australian Capital Territory (ACT). Many of the species are legally required to be controlled (pest plants).

ACT Nature Conservation Threatened Native Species List. A species is threatened if it is likely to become extinct in the foreseeable future. The Nature Conservation Act 2014 (ACT) establishes a formal process for the identification and protection of threatened species and ecological communities. Ngunnawal species names created and endorsed by the Winnagaay Ngunnawal Language Aboriginal Corporation.

This dataset shows habitat / locations of mammals listed as threatened in the ACT under the Nature Conservation Act 2014.

This dataset contains information relating to incidents involving wildlife that were attended to by ACT park rangers.

This feature layer shows the extent of native, threatened and exotic grasslands in the ACT. Native grasslands of the Territory include a rich assemblage of flora and fauna species that combine into a unique ecosystem. These grasslands are a priority for protection and management as they contribute to our natural biodiversity, our history and heritage, and local amenity and community. Natural temperate grasslands are an Endangered Ecological Community in the ACT (Nature Conservation Act 2014) and Critically Endangered Ecological Community under the EPBC Act 1999. Other Native and Exotic grasslands in the ACT can also have some conservation significance as they support important populations of threatened fauna and flora.

Ambient air quality monitoring is undertaken in the ACT to both support both the National Environment Protection Measures and an Air Quality Index (AQI) to better communicate the ambient air quality to the ACT Community.
