Priorities and Potential for Restoration Terrestrial Values Restoration priority for coastal (including wetland and estuarine fringes), and lowland communities - areas of secondary forests and regeneration shrublands provide excellent potential for this, as long as invasive weeds are controlled, especially banana passion vine and old mans beard. Maintenance and restoration of alluvial forest communities a high priority. Freshwater Values Maintenance and enhancement of riparian areas along low gradient streams between coast and hillslopes to improve habitat and water quality. Management to safeguard existing riparian margins, especially from the effects of forestry, important in low gradient stretches. Maintenance of instream flows for life-supporting capacity of streams.
