Property reports and vegetation mapping
Search vegetation management regional ecosystem descriptions
This is our vegetation management regional ecosystems description database (VM REDD). Use this lookup tool to search for:
- vegetation management classes (endangered, of concern, least concern)
- regulated grasslands (woody grassland structure category) and unregulated grasslands (grassland structure category)
- structure categories and other regional ecosystem information for use under the vegetation management framework.
How to use the lookup tool
You can search by:
- regional ecosystem number, if you know it
- regional ecosystem details and description.
Or you can download a spreadsheet of all the data and search within it.

| Vegetation Management Act class | Of concern |
| Short description | Eucalyptus tereticornis open forest to woodland on coastal metamorphic foothills |
| Structure category | Mid-dense |
| Structure code | Open Forest |
| Description | Eucalyptus tereticornis (forest red gum) open forest to woodland. Coastal metamorphic foothills. Not a Wetland. (BVG1M: 9c). |
| Fire guidelines | SEASON: After the wet season when rain is reliably expected and there is good soil moisture. Burning in the dry season (Oct-Dec) will give high intensity fires. INTENSITY: Low to moderate with occasional high to control overabundance of tree recruitment in mid-stratum. INTERVAL: 3-5 years for grassy understorey. 6-10 years for shrubby understorey. INTERVAL_MIN: 3. INTERVAL_MAX: 5. STRATEGY: Aim for a good fire coverage to limit forest transitioning. Do not target moist areas, such as in or near gullies as these will provide a mosaic of denser vegetation and refuge for some plant species. ISSUES: High intensity fires can be used to control an over-abundance of mid-storey recruitment; once controlled return to normal fire regime. Follow-up fires may be required to control more advanced tree recruitment (e.g., of rainforest pioneers). |
