The assessment team evaluated the operations against the ASC Salmon Standard V. 1.0 June 2012. Eight final minor non-conformities (NCs) were identified during the full assessment. Overall Tassal showed 93% of compliance against the 152 compliance criteria of the ASC salmon standard v 1.0; a proportion of these (17%) are in the not applicable (n/a) category. None of the non-conformities identified are graded as major and therefore would not preclude award of certification. The client has provided SCS with a root cause analyses and an action plan to address the minor non-conformities (see Table 2). Progress against the action plan will be assessed at the first surveillance audit. The assessment team identified one NC in Principle 1 (Comply with all applicable national laws and local regulations) related to health and safety regulations, two in Principle 2 (Conserve natural habitat, local biodiversity and ecosystem function), one related to feed testing and one pertaining to accessability of information by the public. There was one NC in Principle 4 (Use of resources in an environmentally efficient and responsible manner) related to the feed ingredients and their Sustianble Fisheries Partnership Fish Source score. We identified one NC in Principle 5 (Manage disease and parasites in an environmentally responsible manner) which relates to the frequency of farm site visits by the company veterinarian. Two NCs were identified in Principle 7 (Be a good neighbor and conscientious citizen), the first one related to informing the community regarding antibiotics treatments and potential health risks is associated with two compliance criteria, and the second one is about consultations with aboriginal groups. One NC was identified in Section 8 (Requirements for suppliers of smolt). The NC is about Dissolved Oxygen (DO) measurements in effluent of the semi-open hatchery system at Russell Falls.

  • Around the Bend
    Cultural Studies Review volume 18 number 1 March 2012 http://epress.lib.uts.edu.au/journals/index.php/csrj/index pp. 86–106 Emily Bullock 2012 Around the Bend The Curious Power of the Hills around Queenstown, Tasmania EMILY BULLOCK UNIVERSITY OF TASMANIA Approaching the town of Queenstown you can’t help but be taken aback by the sight of the barren hillsides, hauntingly bare yet strangely beautiful. This lunar landscape has a majestic, captivating quality. In December 1994 after 101 years of continuous mining—A major achievement for a mining company—the Mount Lyell Mining and Railway Company called it a day and closed the operation thus putting Queenstown under threat of becoming a ghost town. Now, with the mine under the ownership of Copper Mines of Tasmania, the town and the mine are once again thriving. Although Queenstown is primarily a mining town, it is also a very popular tourist destination offering visitors unique experiences. So, head for the hills and discover Queenstown—a unique piece of ‘Space’ on earth.1 In his discussion of the labour of the negative in Defacement: Public Secrecy and the Labour of the Negative, Michael Taussig opens out into a critique of criticism. ISSN 1837-8692 Criticism, says Taussig, is in some way a defacement, a tearing away at an object that ends up working its magic on the critic and forging a ‘curious complicity’ between object and critic.2 Taussig opens up a critical space in which to think with the object of analysis, cutting through transcendental critique, as a critical defacement, which, in the very act of cutting, produces negative energy: a ‘contagious, proliferating, voided force’ in which the small perversities of ‘laughter, bottom-spanking, eroticism, violence, and dismemberment exist simultaneously in violent silence’.3 This complicity in thinking might be charged by critical methodologies which engage in, and think through, peripatetic movements.

  • Gerrity, Was Called, Made the Statutory Declaration and Was Examined
    Mayor DARRYL GERRITY, WAS CALLED, MADE THE STATUTORY DECLARATION AND WAS EXAMINED. CHAIR (Mr Wing) - Welcome Mayor Gerrity. We look forward to your comments on tourism in your area. Mr GERRITY - It has been a stop-start industry on the west coast and that is why council has taken a lead role in instigating a lot of tourism projects throughout the west coast. We run the visitor centre down in Strahan - that is a total west coast visitor centre - and we still market what we call a destinational philosophy. A destinational philosophy is to put in tourists' minds coming to the west coast destination that you have to stay. So it is an end-of-day trip rather than through here, out and back again. So we market that philosophy and everybody now, when they are coming to the west coast, expects to stay here. They have not in their brain, and thank god for our speed laws, that they can leave Hobart in a day come through here, go up to Burnie and up to Launceston, even though some tourism agents on the mainland tell them that they can. They are very unwise in telling them travelling distances in Tasmania. They tell them that it is a 100 kph road. Well it is but you cannot sit on 100 kph. You go down to 40 or 50 kph on occasions. Every time you educate these people on the east coast and in these tourism agencies, they change and so you get another new one. It is a re-educational program all over again, especially when they come here on what they call 'famils'.
