Favourable Condition

Favourable Condition is assessed in relation to the range of conditions required to maintain a habitat or species in a state where its distribution, abundance, structure or function throughout the biogeographic region is sustained over the long term. When the sum of the influences acting upon the habitat or species does not adversely affect the range and abundance of species or range and quality of habitats they are considered to be in a 'Favourable Condition'.
