Southern Mallee Private Reserves

Reserves on Leasehold land in the Southern Mallee Planning Group Region. These Reserves are parcels where the lease conditions have been altered to ensure conservation in perpetuity. The tenure remains Western Lands Leasehold. The conditions are to prohibit grazing and actively manage the areas for conservation. These reserves and conditions were agreed to by leaseholders, the former NSW Department of Land and Water Conservation and the Western Lands Commission. The reserves are to offset clearing of other areas of vegetation for cropping by the leaseholders. The Southern Mallee Planning Group was set up under the previous Native Vegetation Conservation Act and the clearing was approved under the EP&A Act. The Southern Mallee Plan specifically includes the development of a Comprehensive Adequate and Representative reserve system within the overall framework of the plan. This plan also sets targets for representation of each vegetation type in reserves.

南马利规划群组区域（Southern Mallee Planning Group Region）内租赁土地上的保护地块。此类保护地块均为租赁契约条款已完成变更，以确保永久保护的地块，其土地保有形式仍为西部领地租赁权。该地块的管理条款禁止放牧，并需对区域开展主动保护管理工作。上述保护地块及相关管理条款已获得租赁方、原新南威尔士州（New South Wales, NSW）土地与水资源保护局以及西部领地委员会的一致同意。设立此类保护地块，用于抵消租赁方为开展农业种植而清理其他植被区域所带来的生态影响。南马利规划群组是依据旧版《本土植被保护法（Native Vegetation Conservation Act）》设立的，相关植被清理活动则依据《环境与规划法（Environment Protection and Planning Act，EP&A Act）》获得批准。《南马利规划方案》明确提出，需在规划整体框架内构建一套全面、充足且具代表性（Comprehensive Adequate and Representative，CAR）的保护区系统。该方案同时设定了各植被类型在保护区中占比的相关目标。
