Permanent damage/clearing of marine plants requires detailed assessment of the communities, and will often require vegetation or financial offsets to mitigate against the damage.

Most vegetation clearing activities are likely to impact on animal breeding places, therefore it is the responsibility of companies undertaking clearing to ensure they have the correct authority.

Apart from having detrimental economic impacts to the agricultural and industry sectors, the control of declared weeds is legislated under the Land Protection (Pest and Stock Route Management) Act 2002 and some local government pest management plans. This legislation imposes a legal responsibility for control of declared weeds by all landholders on all land under their management, including in some cases the development and implementation of weed/pest management plans. Declared pest plants are targeted for control as they can have serious economic, environmental and social impacts in Queensland. Some Council plans relate to environmental weeds (not declared) which are considered a priority for management within their area.
