  • Submission 32
    To Whom It May Concern, RE: Submission to Productivity Commission Five Year Review of the Murray Darling Basin Plan Edward River Council thanks the Productivity Commission for the opportunity to make a submission to the five-year review of the Murray Darling Basin Plan. Edward River Council is located in the Southern Basin and represents a community of approximately 9,000 permanent residents across a region covering 8,881 square kilometres, including the town of Deniliquin and the six rural villages of Blighty, Booroorban, Conargo, Mayrung, Pretty Pine and Wanganella. Agriculture and irrigated agriculture are our region’s largest economic contributors and the flow-on effect from the agricultural sector to the retail and urban environment is significant. Edward River Council is supportive of a Basin Plan but is of the view that the implementation of the current plan is not balanced. The intent of the plan is and should be on achieving ‘triple bottom line’ outcomes that treat social, economic and environmental outcomes equally. Under the current plan, the reality that is seen every day within our community is that the environmental outcomes being sought are stripping away from the social and economic outcomes. To date, any structural support or reform to mitigate these effects has been limited and failed to balance the negative impacts of having water removed. In February 2018 the Murray Darling Basin Authority (MDBA) released the Southern Basin Community profiles. Within the Edward River Council Local Government Area, a community profile

    INFLUENCE OF REMNANT NATIVE VEGETATION ON PROPERTY SALE PRICE Sandra Walpole Michael Lockwood Carla A. Miles JOHNSTONE CENTRE Report No. 106 INFLUENCE OF REMNANT NATIVE VEGETATION ON PROPERTY SALE PRICE Sandra Walpole Michael Lockwood Carla A. Miles ____________ October 1998 ALBURY FOURTH REPORT OF THE PROJECT Economics of remnant native vegetation conservation on private property Acknowledgments The project Steering Committee, and a pilot group of northeast Victorian landholders made valuable comments on drafts of the survey instrument. Jack Sinden and Eddie Oczkowski provided valuable input on preliminary versions of the hedonic models. We also wish to acknowledge the landholders who agreed to participate in the surveys, particularly those who took the time to show us their remnant vegetation. Evelyn Buckley, Emma Smith and Kylie Scanlon showed a great deal of patience and persistence in undertaking the majority of the surveys. Various staff members of the Victorian Municipalities of Alpine, Indigo, Wangaratta, Wodonga, Towong, and the NSW Shires of Albury, Berrigan, Conargo, Corowa, Culcairn, Deniliquin, Holbrook, Hume, Jerilderie, Lockhart, Murray, Tumbarumba, Urana, Wakool and Windouran have been very helpful in providing property and landholder information. This report was published with the assistance of Bushcare - a program of the Commonwealth Government’s Natural Heritage Trust.
