  • Funding Information Tour for Artists and Communities Across the State
    MEDIA RELEASE Wednesday 24 April 2019 Funding information tour for artists and communities across the state Regional Arts Victoria, the Australia Council for the Arts and Creative Victoria, welcome Foundation for Rural and Regional Renewal (FRRR) this year, adding an important regional voice to a funding information tour across the state from Monday 20 May – Friday 24 May. The information sessions welcome enquiry from regional artists and arts organisations about what opportunities most suit the needs of their creative practice. The tour is also reciprocal in creating the opportunity for federal and state funding bodies being available and accessible to regional and remote areas of the state. “There is no better way to understand the needs of the artists and arts organisations than being present in these areas,” says Liz Zito, Regional Arts Victoria’s Director of Partnerships. Delivered in four different locations of the state, this year’s tour aims to connect ‘remote artists’ with information and opportunities that are offered through the Regional Arts Fund, and other federal and state funding bodies. The four locations are Portland, Kaniva, Warracknabeal and Maryborough. Impacts from this type of tour are four-fold. The organisations and funding become more accessible to communities. There is greater connection within communities between the people interested in funding. Relationships between the four organisations are better developed and informed by community, and the collegiate support grows between the four touring organisations. Sharing funding information in this manner is a strategic and coordinated approach to meeting the needs of regional and remote Victoria. “The partnership continues to be very successful.” Partnerships Coordinator, Edwina Guinness has instigated the tour and leads the delegates from the other funding bodies on the road trip.

  • 13. Recreational Values
    13. Recreational values Department of Environment, Land, Water and Planning Part 13. Recreational values 13.1 Recreational values in the Murray-Darling Basin Plan The Basin Plan cites a number of considerations regarding recreational values of water including: Schedule 1 – Basin water resources and the context for their use • Item 26: The water resources of the Murray‑Darling Basin are used in agriculture, non‑ agricultural industry, meeting critical human water needs and normal domestic requirements, for recreational and cultural purposes, and in maintaining freshwater ecosystems. • Item 32: The resources are also used for water sports, wider recreational activities, to attract visitors to particular regions, and for visual amenity. • Item 39: An estimated 430,000 people use Basin water resources for more than 5 million recreational fishing trips a year, with a most likely direct expenditure estimate of $1.35 billion (DPI, 2011). Recreation and tourism use of Basin water resources is generally non‑consumptive, but depends on a degree of ecological health. Ramsar‑listed wetlands are significant tourist destinations. The objectives and outcomes in the Basin Plan include: • 5.02 (a) Communities with sufficient and reliable water supplies that are fit for a range of intended purposes, including domestic, recreational and cultural use Water quality management plans prepared as part of meeting the Basin Plan also require consideration of recreational values: • 9.07 The water quality objective for recreational water quality is to achieve a low risk to human health from water quality threats posed by exposure through ingestion, inhalation or contact during recreational use of Basin water resources. • 9.18 The water quality targets for water used for recreational purposes are that the values for cyanobacteria cell counts or biovolume meet the guideline values set out in Chapter 6 of the Guidelines for Managing Risks in Recreational Water.
