    Submission to House of Representatives Standing Committee on PRIMARY INDUSTRIES & REGIONAL SERVICES The Coorong District Council (SA) AUGUST 1999 Bill Paterson Chief Executive Officer Coorong District Council PO Box 28 Ph: (08) 8575 1008 Meningie SA 5264 Fax: (08) 8575 1516 Email: [email protected] L:\Infrastructure inq\Submissions\Electronic subs\sub291-e.doc Infrastructure on Primary Industries & Regional Services 1. INTRODUCTION The Coorong District Council comprises 8,836 square kilometers of mainly rural land serviced by the towns of Tailem Bend, Meningie, Tintinara and Coonalpyn and other smaller settlements. The resident population of the District is 6,000, with about half that number being concentrated in the towns. At any time the travelers on the main highways swell the actual number of persons in the area. Three highways being Dukes Highway, Princes Highway and Mallee Highway pass through the District carrying heavy and general traffic between South Australia and the eastern states. The Council maintains a total of 1,800 kilometers of unsealed and sealed roads throughout the District. The Adelaide - Melbourne railway line divides the District and is met by two regional feeder lines mainly carrying grain to Tailem Bend for storage and eventual movement by rail to Port Adelaide. The area has a growing tourism focus as people seek out the natural environment that is available through the extensive National Parks, which are a feature of the district. The Coorong National Park from which the District takes its name is of world significance as a wetland of international importance. Refer Appendix –1 & 5 When considering the Terms of Reference a significant numbers of areas could be addressed and we will touch on a few of those in the latter half of the submission.

It is these qualities that are basic to our humanity. They are the foundation of our value systems and drive our quest for purpose and contentment. Cultural richness embodies morality, spiritual well-being, the rule of law, reverence for life, human achievement, creativity and talent, options for choice, a sense of belonging, personal worth and an acceptance of responsibility for the future. Biological richness and diversity are, in turn, important to cultural richness and communities of people. When a community ceases to value and protect its natural landscapes, it erodes the richness and wholeness of its cultural foundation.
