FINAL ii PARKLAND PLANNERS EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Background Over many years local residents and community groups have advocated for the community to be able to access and enjoy foreshore areas with their dogs on the Northern Beaches. Council resolved at its meeting on 26 June 2018 to undertake community consultation regarding a potential trial dog off leash area at Station Beach. A range of key stakeholders have been consulted with prior to a decision being made about conducting the trial, including State government agencies which have responsibilities for the management of Station Beach and the Pittwater waterway. Such agencies are NSW Department of Industry-Lands and Water, NSW Department of Industry-Fisheries, and NSW National Parks and Wildlife Service. Parameters of the trial Council has proposed the following parameters for the off-leash trial at Station Beach, which is the basis for the community engagement undertaken from November 2018 to February 2019. Trial location The trial would be undertaken on a specified section of Station Beach south of The Boathouse and north of Beach Road. Trial period The proposed trial would be conducted over a period of 12 months. The exact dates of the trial will be determined following consideration of the feedback received during the community engagement undertaken from November 2018 to February 2019. Should Council resolve for the trial to proceed, environmental monitoring would be undertaken and community feedback would be collected during the trial period. Trial days and times It is proposed that the trial area would be available for dog off leash exercising and swimming at these days and times: 4:00pm - 10:30am, 7 days a week during Australian Eastern Standard Time 5:30pm - 10:30am, Monday to Friday during Australian Eastern Daylight Time (in the summer). Community engagement process The ‘Your Say Northern Beaches’ project page and online submission form went live on Council’s website on 16 November 2018. Between ‘going live’ and the closing date for submissions of 28 February 2019, Council undertook the following community engagement tasks: STATION BEACH DOG OFF LEASH AREA – PROPOSED TRIAL COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT REPORT - FINAL I PARKLAND PLANNERS Notices in Council’s column ‘Northern Beaches Weekly News’ in the Manly Daily on Saturdays 17 and 24 November, 22 December, 12 January, and 9 and 23 February 17 and 24 November - advertisement in the Manly Daily 21 and 22 November - letter box drop to nearby residents 26 November - signs installed at Station Beach 28 November – notification emails to key stakeholders: Boathouse Café, Channel 7 Home and Away, Dunes, North Palm Beach SLSC, Palm Beach Golf Club, Palm Beach Surf Club, Palm Beach Whale Beach Association, Seven Network (Operations) 28 November, and fortnightly to the Community Engagement Register 29 November - drop in session at Palm Beach Golf Club 6-8pm (14 people attended, 10 listed on attendance register) 1 December - drop in session at Palm Beach Golf Club –2:30 to 4:30pm (8 people attended) media releases issued throughout the community engagement period. e-mails sent to people involved in recent dog-related projects Repeat emails sent to key stakeholders and community registers.

  • Macrobrachium Intermedium in Southeastern Australia: Spatial Heterogeneity and the Effects of Species of Seagrass
    MARINE ECOLOGY PROGRESS SERIES Vol. 75: 239-249, 1991 Published September 11 Mar. Ecol. Prog. Ser. Demographic patterns of the palaemonid prawn Macrobrachium intermedium in southeastern Australia: spatial heterogeneity and the effects of species of seagrass Charles A. Gray* School of Biological Sciences, University of Sydney, 2006, NSW. Australia ABSTRACT. The effects of species of seagrass (Zostera capricorni and Posidonia australis) on spatial and temporal heterogeneity in the demography of estuarine populations of the palaemonid prawn Macrobrachium intermedium across 65 km of the Sydney region, southeastern Australia, were examined. Three estuaries were sampled in 1983 and 1984 to assess the magnitude of intra- and inter- estuary variability in demographic characteristics among populations. Species of seagrass had no effect on the demographic patterns of populations: differences in the magnitude and directions of change in abundances, recruitment, reproductive characteristics, size structures and growth were as great among populations within each species of seagrass as those between the 2 seagrasses Abiotic factors, such as the location of a meadow in relation to depth of water and distance offshore, and the interactions of these factors with recruiting larvae are hypothesised to have greater influence than the species of seagrass in determining the distribution and abundance of these prawns. Spatial and temporal heterogeneity in demography was similar across all spatial scales sampled: among meadows (50 m to 3 km apart) in an estuary and among meadows in all 3 estuaries (10 to 65 km apart). Variability in demographic processes among populations in the Sydney region was most likely due to stochastic factors extrinsic to the seagrasses then~selves.I conclude that the demography of seagrass-dwelling estuarine populations of M.

  • Pittwater Nature Issue 4 February 2021
    1 Pittwater Nature Issue 4 February 2021 News and stories from Bushcarers, Wildlife carers, Community and home gardens The Pittwater River and the Barrenjoey Tombolo We hear a lot about Climate Change and Sea Level Rise. How could this affect our coast- line? It’s happened before. If we’d come here during the last Ice Age, we wouldn’t recognise the place at all. About 14 000 years ago, the Pacific coastline was about 20km further east. Our beaches, so familiar today, did not exist. From today’s Palm Beach, you’d be going a long way downhill for a surf. And you’d need a thick wetsuit. But that landscape would have been familiar to Aboriginal people. When the sea level was lower, streams flowed fast- er and eroded bedrock in river channels. The Hawkesbury River has a huge catchment. Its fast flow eroded the old Pleistocene bedrock channel between Barrenjoey and Box Head so that it is about 125 metres below the present sea level. Seismic investigations of bedrock drainage patterns in Pittwater contained a surprise, for this waterway which now widens out to merge into Broken Bay did not join the ancient Hawkesbury River drainage channels to enter the sea north of Barrenjoey until very recent times, geologically speaking. Our coast 14 000 years ago. The old channel etched into the bedrock under From: The Nature of Hidden Worlds. Mary White Pittwater showed that it was a steep-sided V- shaped valley, parallel to the coast, and deepening steadily towards the north. Off West Head the channel swings abruptly eastward and heads for the ocean across bedrock between Barrenjoey and Palm Beach where the bedrock is at 76 metres below sea level.

There are many splendid bushwalks along marked trails to secluded beaches, aboriginal engravings and lookouts, including Flint and Steel on the Hawkesbury and The Basin in Pittwater. Visitors will enjoy spectacular views over the Pittwater Peninsula and Broken Bay from the West Head Lookout which sits on the most Northern tip of the park. Winter and spring (the months of June to November) are the best times to visit the park to observe the spectacular wildflowers and wildlife. At this time of year the Heath Banksia blooms and attracts hundreds of honeyeaters. It is also the mating season for Lyrebirds. The careful observer may see the male's spectacular display as it spreads its long tail in a fan and throws it forward over its head or hear it's calls which comprises of rapid random melody and mimicked calls of other birds. Lying near the centre of a large sedimentary basin, Ku-ring-gai Chase National Park is characteristic of Hawkesbury sandstone. The rocks are mostly sandstone with some shales and volcanic soils at West Head.
