  • 2012 Gippsland Flood Event - Review of Flood Warnings and Information Systems
    2012 Gippsland Flood Event - Review of Flood Warnings and Information Systems TRIM ID: CD/12/522803 Date: 21 November 2012 Version: Final OFFICE of the EMERGENCY SERVICES COMMISSIONER Page i MINISTERIAL FOREWORD In early June this year, heavy rain and widespread flooding affected tens of thousands of Victorians across the central and eastern Gippsland region. The damage to towns and communities was widespread – particularly in the Latrobe City, Wellington and East Gippsland municipalities. Homes, properties and businesses were damaged, roads and bridges were closed, and more than 1500 farmers were impacted by the rains. A number of people were rescued after being trapped or stranded by the rising waters. Following the floods, some communities had a perception that telephone-based community warnings and information had failed them. As the Minister for Police and Emergency Services, I requested Victoria’s Emergency Services Commissioner to review the effectiveness, timeliness and relevance of the community information and warnings. This report has met my expectations and has identified the consequences and causes for the public’s perception. I welcome the review’s findings. I am confident these will, in time, lead to better and more effective arrangements for community information and warnings and contribute to a safer and more resilient Victoria.

  • Southern Rivers Region
    State of the catchments 2010 Riverine ecosystems Southern Rivers region State Plan target By 2015 there is an improvement in the condition of riverine ecosystems. Background The Southern Rivers region covers more than 30,000 km2, is bounded by Stanwell Park in the Illawarra to the north and includes all coastal catchments south to the Victorian border. The region has nine catchment areas including the Shoalhaven, Illawarra–Hacking, Clyde, Deua, Tuross, Bega and Towamba coastal catchments, and extends westwards to include the Snowy and Genoa catchments (Figure 1). This diverse region has many river systems that include the Minnamura, Kangaroo, Shoalhaven, Clyde, Deua, Tuross, Brogo, Moruya, Bega, Bemboka and Towamba rivers, all of which flow east to the coast; and the Genoa and Snowy rivers that originate in New South Wales and flow into lower catchments in Victoria. The largest catchment in the Southern Rivers region is the Shoalhaven, covering 7300 km2. The Shoalhaven River rises in the highlands of the Southern Tablelands at an altitude of 864 m above sea level and is 327 km in length. The Mongarlowe River is a major tributary of the Shoalhaven River and flows from the steep mountains of the Budawang Range, joining the main trunk of the Shoalhaven River near Braidwood. The southern section of the Shoalhaven River flows northwards before it merges with the southern flowing Kangaroo River and then flows east. The Kangaroo River and some of its tributaries fall rapidly downstream through gorge country onto alluvial plains near Nowra. Downstream of the gorge country near the confluence of the Kangaroo River with the Shoalhaven River, the river enters Tallowa Dam, which supplies water to Sydney and the Shoalhaven region.

  • The Gauss-Krueger Projection
    The Black-Allan Line Revisited Rod Deakin Steve Sheppard Bob Ross THE BLACK-ALLAN LINE What sort of line was it? The Act of British Parliament 1850 separating Victoria from New South Wales describing the boundaries of the new state, said in part: “…and bounded on the North and North-east by a straight Line drawn from Cape Howe to the nearest source of the River Murray, …” The Victorian Trigonometric survey was extended into the district of the north-east border and some time prior to 1869, Robert L. J. Ellery (Superintendent of the Victorian Geodetic Survey) met P. F. Adams (NSW Surveyor General) on the beach at Cape Howe and marked a point (Conference Point) as being an acceptable terminal of the border. At the end of 1869, surveyor Alexander Black had located the spring that was the most easterly source of the Murray. The terminal points were connected to the trigonometric survey and the “straight line” computed; marking of the line commenced in April 1870. Surveyor Black marked the easterly part from the Spring to a peg placed on the banks of the Delegate River. Surveyor Alexander Charles Allan marked the remaining 2/3 from the peg to the coast. Surveyor William Turton assisted both Black and Allan. Black’s trigonometric scheme The border survey finished in March 1872 and Allan’s line produced passed within 16.8 feet of the original pile (Conference Point). This was a remarkable surveying feat. The expenditures incurred by the three survey parties (Black’s, Allan’s and Turton’s) amounted to £4822-7-11.
