  • The Nature of Flooding in the Kempsey Shire
    ANNEX A TO THE KEMPSEY SHIRE LOCAL FLOOD PLAN THE NATURE OF FLOODING IN THE KEMPSEY SHIRE CATCHMENT FEATURES Except for a small area in the south-east which is drained by the Maria River, the entire Kempsey Shire falls within the catchment area of the Macleay River (see Maps 3 and 4). The river rises well to the west of the shire in the Guyra, Dumaresq, Armidale, Uralla and Walcha areas of the Great Dividing Range, its tributaries extending for a distance of about 160 kilometres from the coast. The whole catchment covers 11,500 square kilometres. The Macleay River valley consists of three distinct zones: 1. The New England Tablelands section, where the principal tributaries (the Chandler, Muddy and Apsley rivers) rise. This section is entirely outside Kempsey Shire. 2. The Gorge section, where the rivers leave the tablelands in a series of waterfalls and join to form the Macleay River in the well-defined gorge zone. Here the valleys are steep sided, stream gradients are steep and flood flow velocities are high. On this section there are several minor tributaries (the Parrabel, Hickeys, Georges and Nulla Nulla creeks and Dykes River) but no major ones. Below the Hickeys Creek confluence the topography becomes less severe as the river emerges from the gorges. 3. The lower valley section which begins at the upper limit of tidal influence about 16 kilometres upstream of Kempsey. Here there are extensive alluvial flats, occupying some 43,000 hectares, and well- defined natural levees along the river and its tributaries (the Belmore River and Christmas, Kinchela and Clybucca creeks).

  • 10Th March 2017 We Write As the Combined Manning Valley Business
    Office Address: Contact Details: Suite 7, River Arcade Phone: (02) 6551-2299 214 Victoria Street Email: [email protected] PO Box 805 Website: www.manningvalleychamber.com.au Taree NSW 2430 ABN 29 382 318 6 48 Incorporating: Taree, Wingham, Harrington, Old Bar and Hallidays Point Chambers 10th March 2017 We write as the combined Manning Valley Business Chamber (MVBC) to present our formal submission in reference to the Senate enquiry into Decentralisation of Commonwealth Agencies. By way of background The MVBC is the combined Business representative group overarching the villages of Taree, Wingham, Old Bar, Harrington & Hallidays Point. (Plus all points in between) We are a progressive group of business people passionate about innovation in our region and finding ways to grow and support local business. Our membership base stretches over 200 business members and many more corporate and affiliate members. In recent years MVBC has operated under a Memorandum of Understanding with the former Greater Taree City Council (GTCC) on Economic Development. This ceased at the end of December 2016 with a new partnership being formed with MidCoast Council now embracing a wider group inclusive of Gloucester, Forster Tuncurry, Bulahdelah & Tea Gardens. At the time of writing this partnership is still formative, hence MVBC is the local voice for the combined region. MVBC are in full support of the push for decentralisation of Commonwealth Agencies. Over recent years The Manning Valley – with Taree at the hub – has lost over a considerable number of jobs and seen our social economic standing slide dramatically. Our Unemployment rate in mid-2016 was over 10.5% or more than double the national average.
