Groundwater, Mineral Resources and Land Stability in the Tasman Peninsula. 1. Groundwater from Fractured Rocks
1979/3. Groundwater, mineral resources and land stability in the Tasman Peninsula. W.C. Cromer, R.C. Donaldson P. C. Stevenson V.N. Threader Abstract Groundwater prospects, mineral deposits and land stability are discussed to provide information for a planning study of the Tasman Peninsula. INTRODUCTION This report was written at the request of the Commissioner for Town and Country Planning, and is the result of a map compilation, a search of records and field work during the period 20 - 24 November 1978. 1. Groundwater from fractured rocks P.C. Stevenson The amoun~ of water that may be obtained from the hard rocks of the Peninsula by boreholes is controlled by the composition and conditions of weathering and fracture. The amount of direct information is limited because only eight bore holes have been recorded, all at Koonya, Premaydena or Nubeena, but exper ience in other parts of the State enable some general comments to be made. The geology of the Peninsula is shown in Figure 1. The Jurassic dolerite, which forms many of the most rugged and remote parts of the Peninsula, has not been drilled for water but is regarded throughout Tasmania as an extremely poor prospect; very hard to drill, almost always dry and where water exists it is hard and saline. It cannot be recommended. The Permian mudstone and fine-grained sandstone have not been drilled in the Peninsula, but elsewhere are reliable producers of good quality groundwater. yields of 20 to 150 l/min and qualities of 200 - 600 mg/l of total dissolved solids are usual. -

LAYING CLIO's GHOSTS on the SHORES of NEW HOLLAND* the Title Does Not Foreshadow an Ex
EMPTY HISTORICAL BOXES OF THE EARLY DAYS: LAYING CLIO'S GHOSTS ON THE SHORES OF NEW HOLLAND* By DUNCAN ~T ACC.ALU'M HE title does not foreshadow an exhumation of the village Hampdens, as Webb T called them,! buried on the shores of Botany Bay. In fact, they were probably thieves, but let their ;-emains rest in peace. No, the metaphor in the title is from an analogy from a memorable controversy in value theory in Economics. 2 The title was meant to suggest the need for giving some historical content to the emotions that have accompanied discussions of the early period. Some of the figures which seem to have been conjured up by historical writers have been given malignancy but 110t identity. Yet these faceless men of the past, and the roles for which they have been cast, seem to distort the play of life. And indeed, it is perhaps because the historical boxes have remained unfilled, and because the background-the rest of the play and action-has not been fully explored, that some people of the early period, well known to us by name, have been interpreted in the light of twentieth-century prejudice and political controversy. We know all too little about the quality of day-to-day life in early Australia, the spiritual and material existence of the early Europeans, their energies, their activities and outlook. In the first stage of an inquiry I have been pursuing into our early social history, I am concerned not with these more elusive yet in a way more interesting questions, but in what sort of colony it was with the officers, the gaol and the port. -
Nineteenth-Century Lunatic Asylums in South Australia and Tasmania (1830-1883)
AUSTRALASIAN HISTORICAL ARCHAEOLOGY, 19,2001 Convicts and the Free: Nineteenth-century lunatic asylums in South Australia and Tasmania (1830-1883) SUSAN PIDDOCK While most ofus are familiar with the idea ofthe lunatic asylum, few people realise that lunatic asylums were intended to be curative places where the insane were return to sanity. In the early nineteenth century a new treatment regime that emphasised the moral management of the insane person in the appropriate environment became popular. This environment was to be provided in the new lunatic asylums being built. This article looks at what this moral environment was and then considers it in the context ofthe provisions made for the insane in two colonies: South Australia and Tasmania. These colonies had totally different backgrounds, one as a colony offree settlers and the other as a convict colony. The continuing use ofnineteenth-century lunatic asylums as modern mental hospitals means that alternative approaches to the traditional approaches ofarchaeology have to be considered, and this article discusses documentary archaeology as one possibility. INTRODUCTION and Australia. In this paper a part of this study is highlighted, that being the provision of lunatic asylums in two colonies of While lunacy and the lunatic asylum are often the subject of Australia: South Australia and Tasmania.

Tasman National Park Reservation History
Tasman National Park Reservation History The Tasman National Park incorporates a number of former reserves. The history of each of these reserve areas is provided separately below.

History last updated 12 August 2010 Tasman Island Nature Reserve Date Description 12 April 1904 The island known as ‘Tasman Island’ situated to the south east of Cape Pillar, Tasman Peninsula, was except from sale and reserved for the purpose of a lighthouse reserve, and was taken to have been so declared under the Crown Lands Act 1903. 22 December 1993 108 hectares of land (indicated on CPR Plan 2790; LD 1318) was proclaimed to be a conservation area and a State reserve and given the name Tasman Island Nature Reserve under the National Parks and Wildlife Act 1970 (Statutory Rules 270 of 1993). 30 April 1999 On commencement of the relevant sections of the Regional Forest Agreement (Land Classification) Act 1999, Tasman Island Nature Reserve was incorporated into Tasman National Park (CPR Plan 4215) under the National Parks and Wildlife Act 1970 .

House of Assembly Thursday 12 November 2020
PARLIAMENT OF TASMANIA HOUSE OF ASSEMBLY REPORT OF DEBATES Thursday 12 November 2020 REVISED EDITION Thursday 12 November 2020 The Speaker, Ms Hickey, took the Chair at 10 a.m., acknowledged the Traditional People and read Prayers. QUESTIONS Launceston General Hospital - Commission of Inquiry into Child Abuse Claims Ms WHITE question to MINISTER for HEALTH, Ms COURTNEY [10.03 a.m.] On what date were you first made aware of the series of horrific allegations of child sexual abuse involving nurse Jim Griffin at the Launceston General Hospital? ANSWER Madam Speaker, I can inform the House and the member that advice was provided on 31 July 2019; that the LGH had received advice earlier that day that a member of staff was subject to immediate suspension of his registration to work with vulnerable people. I was advised that day. Launceston General Hospital - Commission of Inquiry into Child Abuse Claims Ms WHITE question to MINISTER for HEALTH, Ms COURTNEY [10.04 a.m.] You have clearly failed to grasp the magnitude of Jim Griffin's crimes and the deep impact they have had on the community. You clearly do not feel responsible for your inaction and you do not want to be held accountable either. Yesterday you were asked why you waited a year - and now we have heard perhaps even longer since you knew - to establish an independent inquiry into the horrific child abuse perpetrated by former Launceston General nurse, Jim Griffin. You have attempted to hide behind police investigations as a reason for your inaction when those investigations ended in October last year when Jim Griffin died. -
