Some catchments will have harvesting prior to bauxite mining operations. (o) The integrity of streams and hence water quality is maintained within the vicinity of areas harvested by application of practices outlined in the Forest Management Plan 1994, whereby minimum width stream buffers of undisturbed forest are demarcated and protected. In addition salt risk is minimised by the application of special Ministerial Conditions imposed under the Environmental Protection Act on second order catchments within the low and intermediate rainfall zones which require phased harvesting and retained basal area limits to apply over a prescribed minimum percent of the untreated forest. Harvest operations that fall within gazetted drinking water source areas, are subject to Country Area Water Supplies Act 1947 (CAWS Act) By-Laws. Additionally, of the drinking water catchments listed, the Harris River and Mundaring Weir catchments are control catchments under Part IIA of the CAWS Act where clearing is also subject to licensing requirements. (2) The Water and Rivers Commission is responsible for authorising cutting of timber and clearing under the CAWS Act By-Laws and for issuing of Licences to Clear under Part IIA of the CAWS Act. Approval of harvest operations in drinking water source catchments is also sought from the Water Corporation although there is no statutory obligation to do so. (3) Such assessment and comment occurs during approval of the Forest Management Plan. (4) Monitoring of environmental aspects of logging operations is variously monitored by officers of the Conservation Commission, CALM, FPC and in particular instances of interest to them, officers of either or both the WRC and Water Corporation. The WRC has delegated to the Water Corporation responsibility for the performance of catchment surveillance and By-Law enforcement for both Perth metropolitan and country water source catchments. The Water Corporation undertakes sample monitoring and research assessments of water quality within dams and streams entering water bodies.
