Using modern data visualization techniques, this project will create a ‘virtual landscape’ of the Beetaloo Sub-basin which will assist landholders, regulators and industry to evaluate the design and placement of gas infrastructure in the region.

This factsheet describes research project activities designed to investigate ways in which roads, pipelines and other transport infrastructure may impact biodiversity in the Beetaloo Sub-basin during the proposed development of an onshore gas industry.

This project will identify the plants and animals that inhabit the Canning Basin, with a particular focus on identifying species that have important conservation value or cultural significance.

CSIRO scientists investigated graziers’ concerns about the impacts of CSG traffic and infrastructure on soils, pastures and livestock.

Soil compaction has long been considered an important issue for soils of the region and modern farming methods have been developed to minimise damage to these soils from farm machinery. However, it has not been clear what damage may result from the large numbers of vehicles used along CSG pipelines and access tracks and within lease areas.

Aerial photogrammetry is used to monitor and model the impact of access tracks on water ows and erosion.

Farmers and CSG workers may come from different backgrounds and this can impact on communications between them. The CSIRO Shared Space project has shown that the aesthetics (visual aspects) of a farm is quite individualised and speci c to the farmer and potentially a cause for a lack of understanding from others.
This project developed a means of telling the story of changes in rural areas before CSG and during the development and production phases.

The woolly wrinklewort Rutidosis lanata (Asteraceae) is a rare and protected daisy from southern Queensland. As part of the biodiversity offset program for the Australia Pacific LNG project, more than 100,000 plants of this species will be translocated. Successful establishment of a self-sustaining population relies on knowledge of basic reproductive ecology and genetic diversity for the species. The Gas Industry Social & Environmental Research Alliance (GISERA) have initiated a research project on the woolly wrinklewort to better inform the conservation of this rare species.
