NSW forestry agency given another stop work order after EPA identifies endangered greater glider habitat

"The EPA said officers inspected several sites in an area with active logging and found what appeared to be a den tree for an endangered southern greater glider within 30 metres of forestry operations."

“The EPA alleges that FCNSW has not conducted detailed and thorough searches necessary to identify all greater glider and yellow-bellied glider den trees within the Flat Rock state forest compartment.”

"The Nature Conservation Council of NSW said it should not be up to members of the community to stop logging of forests that the agency was required to protect."
