The walk includes long sections of pristine ocean beaches and Aboriginal middens, with optional exploration of the Norfolk Range - one of the least walked areas of Tasmania because of its remoteness - and finishing with a cruise up the Pieman. This may be the last opportunity to walk this section of cast in its present pristine state, if proposals by the State Government to push a road through to the Pieman go ahead. Total cost of (cheap) air fares and transport should be about $450. You will need to organize fares (to Wynyard, Devonport or Launceston) very soon for this period, so please contact me NOW.

After flying to Launceston, we will walk the track in seven days heading south, allowing plenty of time for side trips or to ride out bad weather. - - - Hobart is our next destination for a shower and some R&R and resupply, before catching the bus to Mt Field National Park for four more days of spectacular bushwalking in rainforests and high alpine moors. I wouldn't mind checking out some of Tasmania's legendary Horizontal scrub while we are there too. All up I would expect change from $750 for everything, and I have worked out an itinerary for planes and buses to take us everywhere. I'm expecting to stay at Backpacker Hostels at the cities.

  • Submission to Senate Inquiry Into the Status, Health and Sustainability of Australia's Koala Population
    Committee Secretary Senate Standing Committee on Environment and Communications PO Box 6100 Parliament House Canberra ACT 2600 Australia Submission to Senate Inquiry into the status, health and sustainability of Australia’s koala population Submitted online 7th February 2011 The Coastwatchers Association Inc. is the Eurobodalla (New South Wales) environment and climate change group. With a current membership of 125, Coastwatchers has been active in the Eurobodalla Shire for a quarter of a century, conducting research, liaison, advocacy and encouragement for initiatives aimed at protecting the natural environment. In March 2010, Coastwatchers initiated a joint volunteer Eurobodalla Koalas project, aimed at investigating potential remnant populations, potential future habitat and issues related to koalas in Eurobodalla forests, including those on private land, State Forests and National Parks. The project has reached a point where some preliminary observations can be made. A preliminary discussion paper will be released publicly in March 2011. Coastwatchers welcomes the opportunity to provide these observations, and a set of recommendations, to the Senate Inquiry with a particular emphasis on the Eurobodalla. Dr. Keith Joliffe, Treasurer, Coastwatchers, on behalf of Committee of Management Coordinator, Eurobodalla Koalas project The Coastwatchers Association Inc. Page of 161 Contents 1. General Remarks, page 3 2. Recommendations, page 5 3. Local Information, page 6 The Coastwatchers Association Inc. Page of 162 1. General Remarks The National Koala Conservation and Management Strategy 2009 – 2014 provides the appropriate context for any consideration of the status and future of koalas within the boundaries of the Eurobodalla Shire, New South Wales. Local research so far confirms the National Strategy’s observations about koala history, lack of adequate data (historical and contemporary) and the need for conservation actions such as the rehabilitation and establishment of landscape-scale corridors across private and public land.

    TIMING AND BASIN IMPLICATIONS FOR THE EDEN-COMERONG-YALWAL VOLCANIC ZONE: STRATIGRAPHY, DEPOSITIONAL ENVIRONMENT AND TECTONIC AFFINITY OF THE COMERONG VOLCANIC COMPLEX, NSW Thomas Cotter (BSc. Geol.) Submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Philosophy (Science) School of Earth and Atmospheric Sciences Science and Engineering Faculty Queensland University of Technology 2020 Keywords Put a paragraph of keywords here in alphabetical order (for cataloguing purposes). Comerong Volcanics Lachlan Orogen Paleoenvironment Stratigraphy Intraplate Devonian Timing and basin implications for the Eden-Comerong-Yalwal Volcanic Zone: Stratigraphy, Depositional Environment and Tectonic Affinity of the Comerong Volcanic Complex, NSW i Abstract The Lachlan Orogen of New South Wales and Victoria preserves a geological history of Palaeozoic cratonisation of eastern Australia along the paleo-pacific plate boundary. The Lachlan Orogen forms an important crustal feature in eastern Australia because it hosts world-class economic deposits and provides a unique insight into plate tectonic processes active throughout the Palaeozoic. The eastern subdivision of the Lachlan Orogen is comprised of a complex accumulation of volcanic and sedimentary successions, intruded by granitic batholiths. Here I investigate the paleoenvironment, geochemical affinity and timing of the Devonian, Comerong Volcanic Complex on the New South Wales south coast. This investigation demonstrates the Comerong Volcanic Complex consists of alluvial, fluvial and lacustrine sedimentary deposits and bimodal volcanics that were emplaced in a subaerial paleoenvironment. The bimodal volcanics are underlain by a minor accumulation of andesitic lavas that have subduction-related trace element signatures. The bimodal rhyolites and basalts have within-plate geochemical affinities, indicating an intraplate tectonic setting.

  • A Tale of Two Bridges a Comparison of Tyrone and Runnyford Bridge Constructions
    9h Australian Small Bridges Conference 2019 A Tale of Two Bridges A Comparison of Tyrone and Runnyford Bridge Constructions Royce Toohey, Support Services Engineer, Eurobodalla Shire Council ABSTRACT As part of Eurobodalla’s ongoing bridge replacement program, Council committed to the renewal of Runnyford Bridge over the Buckenbowra River at Runnyford. Simultaneously, grant funding was obtained from both NSW and Australian Governments for the replacement of Tyrone Bridge over the Tuross River at Eurobodalla. This paper looks at the two projects, the methods, costs and outcomes and compares the two. Runnyford Bridge is a 130m long timber structure that was replaced like-for-like within the existing footprint whilst Tyrone was the replacement of a 60m long low-level timber bridge with a 90m long concrete structure at a higher level on an adjacent alignment. Runnyford was Council funded, undertaken in-house to no predetermined design rather replicating what was existing. Tyrone was grant funded and delivered by a Design & Construct Contract under external supervision by NSW Public Works, with Council undertaking the tie-in roadworks. Whilst both projects have delivered the desired outcomes, they raised a number of significant issues in methodology, project management and skills. Lessons have been learnt from both projects and applied to Council’s systems and methodologies. 1 INTRODUCTION As part of Eurobodalla’s ongoing bridge replacement program that has seen the replacement of 15 timber bridges since the early 2000’s, Council committed to the renewal of Runnyford Bridge over the Buckenbowra River at Runnyford. Simultaneously, grant funding was obtained from both the NSW and Australian Governments for the replacement of Tyrone Bridge over the Tuross River at Eurobodalla.
