The township of Nhulunbuy has a population of around 3,200 and is situated in East Arnhem Land on the north western tip of the Gulf of Carpentaria 600 kilometres due east of Darwin. It is considered a vital lifeline to the outer regions with respect to the provision of shopping, hospital and health care services. Each year during the monsoonal season road access between communities within the region are not accessible by road and residents of these communities become dependent on air travel to access their basic needs. Gove Airport is located 15 kilometres from Nhulunbuy and services the communities of Nhulunbuy, Yirrkala, Gunyangara and some 80 other communities within East Arnhem Land. It also provides residents and visitors of East Arnhem Land a link with interstate and international travel through the gateway airports of Cairns International and Darwin International. It is operated by the Nhulunbuy Corporation Limited under a Deed of Agreement with Rio Tinto Alcan. Because of its strategic position, Gove Airport is a nominated alternate aerodrome for certain domestic and international carriers when access to their planned destination airport is inaccessible due to inclement weather or technical issues.

  • Dhupuma College Yearbook 1973.Pdf
    YEAR BOOK 1973 Some of the walkers gathering at Gave Airport a little after dawn. DHUPUMA WALKATHON The Dhupuma Walkathon - 14 miles from Gove Airport to Wallaby Beach camp - was Dhupuma's first fund­ raising effort. Eighty-one walkers left the airport a little before 6.30 a.m. under very overcast conditions. The walkers were drenched by rain several times during their long hike, but this helped to keep all relatively cool and fresh. The aim was to cover as many sponsored miles as possible, rather than make a race of it. However, those keen to take line honours ran most of the way and the fourteen miles was covered in the time of 2 hours 18 minutes by Peter Darlison of Nhulunbuy Area School, closely followed by the first Dhupuma student, Rick Bayung, and several others. The slowest walkers took 4 hours and 20 minutes to cover the course, but these were three seven-year-olds, who did well to complete the walk. Only five walkers retired before the finish, and each of these covered more than eight miles. The main fund-raiser was Mr. Des O'Dowd, Gove Li cns Club representative @ $10 per mile plus several other sponsors. The leading fund-raiser from the Dhupuma students was Linda Galaway. The walkathon raised approximately $700 for the Dhupuma Social and Sporting Club Inc. and will be used to purchase recreation materials for the students' recreation rooms and dormitories. The only real damper on the day was the washout of the barbecue at Drimmie Head for walkers and their friends after the event.

Members AGREED to explore this concept further as ARO retention is an issue and this may be a way of providing broader experience and encouraging retention and rotation at remote airports. 1 5.2 Regional Airport Masterplan Members NOTED that the AAA has a regional airport masterplan template. Members suggested this may be a suitable template for which many remote airports across the Territory could benefit. GENERAL BUSINESS 6.1 There were no items of General Business.

  • 1 Submission to Senate Standing Committees On
    SUBMISSION TO SENATE STANDING COMMITTEES ON RURAL AND REGIONAL AFFAIRS AND TRANSPORT IN RESPONSE TO THE INQUIRY INTO THE OPERATION, REGULATION AND FUNDING OF AIR ROUTE SERVICE DELIVERY TO RURAL, REGIONAL AND REMOTE COMMUNITIES Who we are and who we represent. The Anindilyakwa Land Council (ALC) is an independent statutory authority established under the Aboriginal Land Rights (Northern Territory) Act 1976 (Land Rights Act). The ALC was established in 1991 (to take over the roles of the Northern Land Council) and its region is the Groote Archipelago. It is the largest Aboriginal controlled body in the Archipelago and has become the peak representative body for traditional owners. Under section 23(1) of the Land Rights Act, the ALC undertakes the following: Management of the land to protect the interests of traditional owners; Protection of sacred sites; Consultation regarding proposals relating to lands and seas in the Groote Archipelago; Provision of assistance to traditional owners to engage in commercial activities and economic development; Supervision and administration of the Anindilyakwa Land Trust; Control of visits by all non-indigenous people through monitoring and permits; and Protection and preservation of culture, including Intellectual Property, Copyright and reproduction of cultural products to safeguard against illegal or improper use of research, digital images, designs, stories, bio-cultural information, artefacts and art. Traditional owners of the Groote Archipelago are referred to by their traditional name, Anindilyakwa. The Anindilyakwa people endeavour to live traditional lifestyles and the maintenance of cultural and ceremonial practices form an important part of their lives. While the dominant language is Anindilyakwa, most people speak English as a second language.

  • U Places and People: Taking Aboriginal Understandings Seriously in Land and Sea Management
    YolYol\\\\uu Places and People: Taking Aboriginal Understandings Seriously in Land and Sea Management Margaret Leanne Ayre B. For. Sc. (Hons), University of Melbourne Submitted in total fulfilment of the requirements of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy 2002 Department of History and Philosophy of Science The University of Melbourne Abstract In this thesis I look at the work of managing Yol\u Aboriginal estates by the Dhimurru Land Management Aboriginal Corporation (Dhimurru) and Yol\u Aboriginal communities of NE Arnhem Land. I examine the practices of doing contemporary land and sea management at Dhimurru drawing on work I did at Dhimurru assisting in the development of a plan of management for the Yol\u place, }anydjaka (Cape Arnhem in English), and negotiating a curriculum/pedagogy for Dhimurru Yol\u Rangers. I examine the mobilisation strategies of the environmental sciences and Yol\u knowledges which together perform the ‘object of management’ in Dhimurru’s practice, ‘}anydjaka/Cape Arnhem’, as a multiplicity: a Yol\u-managed place. Showing ‘}anydjaka/Cape Arnhem’ as a multiplicity (multiple but partially connected objects) allows us to understand place as multiple materialities performed through sets of routine, but quite often very different, sets of practices. The work of managing ‘}anydjaka/Cape Arnhem’ is the work of managing multiple realities within which the object of management is continually performed as partial, messy, contingent and local. I contend that in order to take Yol\u understandings seriously in land and sea management we need to understand Dhimurru’s unique ontology as a knowledge landscape characterised by an emergent methodology I call ‘journeying-naming- tracing’.
