Wilpinjong Extension Project Historical Heritage Assessment i Executive summary _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Background Niche Environment and Heritage Pty Ltd was commissioned by Resource Strategies, on behalf of Wilpinjong Coal Pty Ltd, to undertake an historical heritage impact assessment of a proposed extension to the Wilpinjong Coal Mine (the Project), an existing open cut coal mine located 40 kilometres north-east of Mudgee, New South Wales (NSW). The aim of this assessment was to assess the potential impacts of the Project on historical heritage items located within the Project area and potential indirect impacts on any other proximal items. The objective was to satisfy the Secretary’s Environmental Assessment Requirements for such a study as part of an Environmental Impact Statement being prepared under Part 4 of the Environmental Planning and Assessment Act 1979. The method of assessment included desktop and field components. Desktop assessment included a search of registers, inventories and databases for heritage in NSW as well as primary and secondary historical source research and consultation with the local historical society and local historians. A contextual history for the local area was prepared to inform the significance assessment of any heritage items identified. Field assessment involved validation of potential heritage items through their physical inspection. Impact assessment Twenty four (24) potential historical items were identified within, or near, the Project area. Of these, twenty one (21) have been assessed to be items of local heritage significance. No cultural landscapes were identified within, or associated with, the Project area. One (1) historical heritage item, the Shale Oil Mine (Item 7.1) is located within open pit areas and will be directly impacted by the Project. One historical heritage item, the Road Embankment, (Item 7.4) may be impacted by the relocation of the 330 kilovolt (kV) TransGrid electricity transmission line (ETL). The Shale Oil Mine (Item 7.1), the Road Embankment (Item 7.4), Pine Park (Item 7.5) and William Carr’s Hut (Item 7.11) could experience indirect impacts from blasting. Recommendations It is recommended that proactive management strategies be employed to ensure that any impacts are avoided, where practical. Historical heritage items in the Project area should only be demolished if they are in a direct impact area. A qualified archaeologist should undertake archival recording of all the features of the Shale Oil Mine (Item 7.1) prior to the commencement of any works associated with Open Cut Pit 8. Archaeological test excavation should occur at the Caretaker’s cottage site, Shale Oil Mine Complex, Slate Gully prior to the commencement of any works associated with Open Cut Pit 8. Damage to the Road Embankment (Item 7.4) should be avoided by the relocation of the 330kV ETL TransGrid during the detailed design, if practical. Archival recording of William Carr’s Hut should be undertaken by a qualified archaeologist (if not already undertaken or proposed by Moolarben Coal-the item has been identified in Moolarben reports as Farm Site, Portion 29). Indirect impacts from blasting have the potential to impact on the heritage values of William Carr’s Hut. (Archival recordings of the Road Embankment [Item 7.4] and Pine Park [Item 7.5] were undertaken in 2006 by Wilpinjong Coal, presented in Wilpinjong Coal Project Non-Aboriginal Heritage Archival Record). Wilpinjong Extension Project Historical Heritage Assessment ii The former St James Church (Item 7.24) is not significant for its heritage values. Numerous depressions near the item appear to be associated with land clearance. It is considered unlikely there are unmarked graves given the proximity of the Church to St Luke’s Anglican Church Cemetery and the Wollar Cemetery. However, stop work provisions should apply during excavation in the area of the former Church allotment. If grave cuts, or human bone, were noted during excavation, work should cease immediately and a qualified archaeologist contacted to assess the remains. If human graves or bones were identified the Police should be notified immediately. Consultation with the NSW Heritage Branch should also take place to discuss future management of the item.

  • Second Interim Report: Food Production in Australia

    Second Interim Report: Food Production in Australia

    Chapter 2 Issues 2.1 This chapter discusses a number of concerns raised in relation to proposed coal and gas exploration and mining/drilling on the Liverpool Plains area of NSW, in particular by BHP Billiton Ltd (BHP), Shenhua Watermark Coal Pty Ltd (Shenhua) and Santos Ltd (Santos). Particular concerns were raised at the potential for these developments to adversely impact on agricultural activities in the area. Background 2.2 The Liverpool Plains covers an area of 12 000 square kilometres located in the north-west of New South Wales some 400 kilometres from Sydney. It is bounded by the Great Dividing Range to the east, the Liverpool Range to the south and the Warrumbungles to the west. The area is a sedimentary flood plain that has been laid down over several million years to provide a very rich, fertile farming area.1 Importance of the Liverpool Plains to food production 2.3 The area's fertile black soils have a high water holding capacity with reliable summer and winter rainfall. The crops in the area consistently produce 40 per cent above the national average. The area grows a diverse range of crops such as wheat, sorghum, oats, soybeans, barley, corn, sunflowers and cotton. It also produces chickpeas, mungbeans, canola, olives, turkeys, chickens, pigs, lambs and wool. In addition it has a significant beef industry. The area is unique in that it produces two crops per year, unlike the majority of farming areas. The Liverpool Plains contributes an estimated $332 million to GDP annually.2 2.4 The area produces 28 per cent of the state's sorghum, 33 per cent of sunflowers and 16 per cent of the state's maize.

    Posts in a Paddock: Revisiting the Jimmy Governor Tragedy, Approaching Reconciliation and Connecting Families Through the Medium of Theatre

    The Journal of the European Association for Studies of Australia, Vol.4 No.1, 2013. Posts in a Paddock: revisiting the Jimmy Governor tragedy, approaching reconciliation and connecting families through the medium of theatre Clare Britton Copyright © Clare Britton 2013. This text may be archived and redistributed both in electronic form and in hard copy, provided that the author and journal are properly cited and no fee is charged. Abstract: A descendent of the O’Brien family, closely related to those who suffered tragic irretrievable loss at the hands of Jimmy Governor when he murdered a pregnant women and her toddler child in 1900, recounts her family’s journey of reconciliation. The sight of the “posts in a paddock”, the remains of the original homestead in which the deaths occurred and the only disappearing reminder of this tragedy on what is still the family farm near Wollar, north-east of Mudgee NSW, moved the author to explore the stories from her family and also from the Governor family. This realization took her on a journey to gather up, and introduce to each other, members of both families and to workshop their stories as a means of seeking a resolution to the tragedy. This journey eventually came to include descendants of Jimmy and Ethel Governor and led to reconciliation through participation in the development and performance of a play. The final outcome is a theatre piece marked by interracial collaboration and establishing common ground through intercultural dialogue, understanding and an overriding shared wish for reconciliation. Keywords: Aboriginal, theatre, reconciliation, Jimmy Governor 143 The Journal of the European Association for Studies of Australia, Vol.4 No.1, 2013.
