Land Capability Study in the Shire of Mansfield

The study was undertaken at the request of the former Department of Planning for use as an aid to planning and development in the former Shire of Mansfield. The report describes erosion risk and other characteristics of the land which may impose constraints on land development in the Shire.

This report was carried out by the former Department of Conservation, Forests & Lands, prepared by J F Wood, and R G Patrick, Senior Soil Conservationists; P R Burns, Conservation Assistant and J E Grimes, Area Soil Conservationist and published in February 1985. The report is based on an assessment of the physical characteristics of the land. Social, economic and other factors which may influence planning have not been considered. The scale of the assessment necessitated some generalization, so site-specific data will be required for any detailed planning.
