result of long term irrigation in these locations. The baseline soil samples of the new irrigation area L4 are

been manually classified as Forest Cover, which I consider appropriate to characterise the
shelterbelt(s). Within the site, cells occupied by sheds or concrete hardstand have been
manually classified as Urban Cover, reflecting the buildings and impervious surfaces consistent
with built/urban environments. The land use categorisation of cells in the area surrounding
