BioSIRT .. Short Presentation

BioSIRT .. BioSIRT .. Bio security S urveillance I ncident R esponse & T racing • BioSIRT is a web enabled, spatial database • An informal meeting held in May 2002 discussed the benefits of aligning national jurisdictional information systems • There was agreement between the Executives, Directors- General and Ministers of all states, territories and the Commonwealth • Involved were all State governments, DAFF, Animal Health Aust, Plant Health Aust, AWC, CSIRO, ABS, Taronga Zoo

BioSIRT .. Who will use it? BioSIRT has been designed to deal with a wide variety of disciplines These include… Animal health – veterinary Pests, marine Animal health – production Epidemiology - general Animal health - native Epidemiology - veterinary Animal health - zoos Public Health specialists Plant health – horticulture Laboratory – diagnostic Plant health – weeds Chemicals – rural Plant health - broadacre Environmental health Plant health - insects Emergency - tracing Plant health – pathology Emergency - IP operations Plant health – forestry Emergency - RA movements Fish health – aquaculture Emergency - mapping Fish health - wild fisheries Emergency - planning & reporting Pests, vertebrates - foxes, rabbits Emergency - logistics Pests, insects - locusts, fire ants Emergency - recovery Pests, avian – starlings Emergency – valuation Pests, fish - carp Auditing for legislative compliance

LCA reporting under the Noxious Weeds Act • S.37 Record keeping obligations of local control authorities • (1) A local control authority must monitor the presence of noxious weeds in its local area and keep records of the following matters: (a) the presence and distribution of noxious weeds in the local area, ……….. (2) A local control authority must, if required to do so by the Director-General, report to the Director-General on the presence and distribution of noxious weeds in the local area ………..”

Notifiable Noxious Weeds Database • Currently information on control class 1,2 and 5 noxious weeds is reported to DPI. • Form available on DPI’s external website and reported to DPI. • Once initial incursion reported, no follow up on the status of the incursion

Notifiable Noxious Weeds Database • BioSIRT configured to capture data of initial incursion PLUS to track the status of the incursion and/or re-infestation. 1. Initial incursion observation (what is already reported) 2. Incursion treated (successful or not) 3. Area free of the weed (follow up inspection) • If reinfestation observed - reporting cycle starts again

Notifiable Noxious Weeds Database Initial observation: 1. Details recorded in BioSIRT Stage 1 2. Relevent people informed Herbarium or ID required? Other expert LCA updates BioSIRT 1. Identificaion confirmed Stage 2 2. Treatment detailed 3. Eradication confirmed 4. Reinspection date set N eradicated Y Reminder of reinspection to LCA Stage 3 Reinspection Y Reinfestation N LCA updates BioSIRT & confirms eradification

This form collects information on the status of the weed incursion
