  • Developing a Nsw Rural Property Investment Index
    Pacific Rim Real Estate Society (PRRES) Conference 2000 Sydney, 23-27 January, 2000 DEVELOPING A NSW RURAL PROPERTY INVESTMENT INDEX Chris Eves Property Group, Faculty of Management, University of Western Sydney, Hawkesbury Richmond, NSW 2753 Australia Phone: 61-2-9852-4219, Facsimile: 61-2-9852-4185, E-mail: [email protected] Key Words: rural land, investment index, land performance, rural land returns. Abstract Rural property in Australia is the most extensive property type based on total area occupied. Agricultural land use currently accounts for over 60% of the total land area in Australia; in comparison, residential, commercial and industrial property account for less than 1% of total land area (ABARE, 1998). Agricultural production also currently accounts for 27% of exports, 3% of GDP and 5% of the Australian workforce (ABARE, 1998). Despite the overall size of the rural property market and the continued importance of agricultural land to the Australian economy, rural property in Australia has received minimal attention by property researchers in comparison to the extensive research attention given to Australian commercial and residential property markets. Reliable property investment performance indices are essential for informed investment decision-making by institutional investors. The lack of such an investment performance index for rural property in Australia has been one of the major impediments to the critical examination of the investment performance of Australian rural property by potential investors, including institutional investors. This paper will review the available rural investment indices in Australia and background the requirements to develop a comprehensive transaction based rural investment index (1990-1999). Initial rural land performance data will also be addressed in the paper.

  • Kooragang Wetlands: Retrospective of an Integrated Ecological Restoration Project in the Hunter River Estuary
    KOORAGANG WETLANDS: RETROSPECTIVE OF AN INTEGRATED ECOLOGICAL RESTORATION PROJECT IN THE HUNTER RIVER ESTUARY P Svoboda Hunter Local Land Services, Paterson NSW Introduction: At first glance, the Hunter River estuary near Newcastle NSW is a land of contradictions. It is home to one of the world’s largest coal ports and a large industrial complex as well as being the location of a large internationally significant wetland. The remarkable natural productivity of the Hunter estuary at the time of European settlement is well documented. Also well documented are the degradation and loss of fisheries and other wildlife habitat in the estuary due to over 200 years of draining, filling, dredging and clearing (Williams et al., 2000). However, in spite of extensive modification, natural systems of the estuary retained enough value and function for large areas to be transformed by restoration activities that aimed to show industry and environmental conservation could work together to their mutual benefit. By establishing partnerships and taking a collaborative and adaptive approach, the project was able to implement restoration and related activities on a landscape basis, working across land ownership and management boundaries (Kooragang Wetland Rehabilitation Project, 2010). The Kooragang Wetland Rehabilitation Project (KWRP) was launched in 1993 to help compensate for the loss of fisheries and other wildlife habitat at suitable sites in the Hunter estuary. This paper revisits the expectations and planning for the project as presented in a paper to the INTECOL’s V international wetlands conference in 1996 (Svoboda and Copeland, 1998), reviews the project’s activities, describes outcomes and summarises issues faced and lessons learnt during 24 years of implementing a large, long-term, integrated, adaptive and community-assisted ecological restoration project.

  • Hunter Valley: Coal Seam Gas Exclusion Zones Submission 8 November 2013
    Director Assessment Policy, Systems & Stakeholder Engagement Department of Planning and Infrastructure Hunter Valley: Coal Seam Gas Exclusion Zones Submission 8 November 2013 Coal Seam Gas Exclusion Zones Submission: Hunter Valley This page was intentionally left blank 2 Coal Seam Gas Exclusion Zones Submission: Hunter Valley Foreword Closing the loop on CSG Mining in the Hunter Valley When it comes to coal seam gas (CSG) mining, protecting Australia’s most visited wine tourism region in its entirety - not in parts - is of paramount importance. And the time to do it is now. The NSW State Government should be recognised for delivering on its pre-election promises to preserve the Hunter Valley wine tourism region from CSG mining by confirming exclusion zones around the villages of Broke and Bulga as well as around significant areas defined as Viticulture Critical Industry Clusters (VCIC). But protecting most of the region, while leaving several critical areas open for CSG exploration and mining, could have devastating consequences for the iconic Hunter region as a whole – and undo the Government’s efforts thus far. While mining is obviously a legitimate land use and an important revenue source, this can’t justify allowing mining activities in areas where other existing, profitable industries would be adversely affected. Put simply, winemaking, tourism and CSG mining are not compatible land uses. The popularity and reputation of the Hunter Valley wine tourism region is fundamentally connected to the area’s natural beauty and landscape – and that natural beauty will fast disappear if the countryside is peppered with unsightly gas wells. Research reveals 80%1 of Hunter Valley visitors don’t want to see gas wells in the wine and tourism region, with 70%2 saying if gas wells are established they’ll just stop coming.

CD-ROM of this document plus images obtained to date - 1 - - 2 - 1.0 INTRODUCTION The Fish River Water Supply Scheme [FRWS] is a medium size but important water supply with the headwaters in the Central Highlands of NSW, west of the Great Dividing Range and to the south of Oberon. It supplies water in an area from Oberon, north to Portland, Mount Piper Power Station and beyond, and east, across the Great Dividing Range, to Wallerawang town, Wallerawang Power Station, Lithgow and the Upper Blue Mountains. It is the source of water for many small to medium communities, including Rydal, Lidsdale, Cullen Bullen, Glen Davis and Marrangaroo, as well as many rural properties through which its pipelines pass. It was established by Act of Parliament in 1945 as a Trading Undertaking of the NSW State Government. The FRWS had its origins as a result of the chronic water supply problems of the towns of Lithgow, Wallerawang, Portland and Oberon from as early as 1937, which were exacerbated by the 1940-43 drought.

Strategic and coordinated regional weed management is critical to building the sustainability of the primary industries, natural environments and local communities in the Central Tablelands region. NSW is in the process of reforming its weed, pest and disease biosecurity legislation. Together, the NSW Biosecurity Strategy 2013-2021 and NSW Biosecurity Act 2015 (which repeals the Noxious Weeds Act 1993 and is expected to be operational in early 2017) provide a modernised and clear vision for safeguarding our primary industries, natural environments and communities from a range of biosecurity threats (pests, diseases and weeds), and the role of community-wide shared responsibility. This Regional Strategic Weed Management Plan (the plan) is a direct response to this legislative reform. It was prepared by the Central Tablelands Regional Weed Committee on behalf of the Central Tablelands Local Land Services Board with guidance from the State Weeds Committee and Local Land Services.

  • Four Rural Cemeteries in Central Western NSW: Islands of Australiana in a European Sea?
    Four rural cemeteries in central western NSW: Islands of Australiana in a European sea? W.S. Semple1, 3, M.O. Rankin2, I.A. Cole2 and T.B. Koen2 1Department of Environment and Climate Change, PO Box 53, Orange, NSW 2800; Present address: 37 Popes Rd, Junortoun, Victoria 3551 AUSTRALIA. 2Department of Environment and Climate Change, PO Box 445, Cowra, NSW 2794 AUSTRALIA. 3 Corresponding author email: [email protected] Abstract: Vascular plants present in groundstoreys of variously–managed areas in four cemeteries in central western NSW – two on the Central Western Slopes (Garra and Toogong) and two on the Central Tablelands (Lyndhurst and Carcoar) – were recorded over periods of 6–10 years. It was hypothesised that (a) areas of the cemeteries with a history of nil or low disturbance would represent high quality remnant vegetation (i.e. contain a diversity of native species but few naturalised species), and (b) that clearing of woody vegetation, together with similar management (e.g. regular mowing) would result in homogenisation of the groundstoreys such that many species, native and naturalised, would be common to all sites. 344 species (176 native, 154 naturalised and 14 non–naturalised exotics) were recorded across the four cemeteries. Many native species that were rare in the surrounding agricultural lands were present in the cemeteries (enhancing their value as conservation areas) but no cemetery contained areas of groundstorey that would qualify as ‘pristine’. Across all management areas, the proportions of naturalised species in the native + naturalised floras of the cemeteries ranged from 46 to 55 %. Though never dominant, naturalised species also comprised high proportions (42 to 51 %) of the floras of the least disturbed (nil or infrequently mown) areas within each cemetery.
