It will the enhance the social and economic attractiveness of the region’s rapidly developing commercial, industrial and new residential centres by strengthening their present relationship with the natural environment. Fortunately, many of the basic building blocks needed to help turn the vision into reality already exist.

  • Historic-Gold-Mining-Sites-In-The-St
    VICTORIAN GOLDFIELDS PROJECT HISTORIC GOLD MINING SITES IN ST ANDREWS MINING DIVISION DRAFT 8/7/99 CULTURAL HERITAGE DEPARTMENT OF NATURAL RESOURCES & ENVIRONMENT JUNE 1999 1 1. Background 1.1 Introduction This report is based on the results of historical archaeology surveys undertaken from 1996 to 1999. The research, fieldwork and consultation undertaken during this time indicate that the study area experienced intermittent and relatively small-scale gold mining from the early 1850s. The study area contains the various goldfields and mining centres that once formed the historic mining administrative region known as the St Andrews Mining Division. The main goldfields and their key mining locations are: • Warrandyte Goldfield ¾ Anderson’s Creek and No.1to No.4 Hills. • Caledonia Goldfield¾Queenstown (now known as St Andrews), One Tree Hill, Kingston (now known as Pantons Hill), Kangaroo Grounds, You You Hill, Kingstown, South Morang, Arthur’s Creek, Nillumbik (now known as Diamond Creek), Steele’s Creek, Yarrambet and Kinglake. • Upper Yarra Goldfield¾ Warburton, Britannia, Yankee Jims, Big Pats, Hoddle’s, McMahons Creek, and Wombat creeks. • Mornington Peninsula Goldfield¾ Tubbarrubba, Tyabb, Mt Martha, and Frankston. • Dandenong Goldfield¾ Emerald, Nicholson, Berwick, and Gembrook. The study area is centred on Warrandyte (Victoria’s first official gold discovery location) and stretches northeast from the Mornington Peninsula to the upper reaches of the Yarra River. The majority of the sites investigate date from the late nineteenth century, and the main site types recorded are associated with re-working shallow alluvial ground and quartz reefing. The recent age of surviving mining relics is a reflection of the temporary and basic nature of the early gold rush activities undertaken and the re-mining that occurred, resulting in the disappearance of earlier sites.

  • Agenda Item 6.4: Melbourne Water Flood
    Page 1 of 58 Report to the Future Melbourne (Environment) Committee Agenda item 6.4 Melbourne Water Flood Management Strategy – Port Phillip and 15 March 2016 Westernport Presenter: Geoff Robinson, Manager Engineering Services Purpose and background 1. Melbourne Water has requested that the Melbourne City Council formally endorse its Flood Management Strategy (the Strategy) – Port Phillip and Westernport released in December 2015 (Attachment 2). 2. Endorsement of the Strategy is intended to support the delivery of the Strategy through the establishment of collaborative working relationships across the various agencies to ensure effective flood management across the catchment. 3. The Strategy is aligned with the Victorian Government’s state wide revised draft Floodplain Management Strategy, emergency management arrangements and planning policy. Key issues 4. The Strategy was developed by Melbourne Water through extensive community and stakeholder consultation. It builds on the many years of flood management experience within Melbourne Water and local government to improve the planning and management of flood risks within the Port Phillip and Westernport catchment. The catchment covers an area of 13,000 kM2 and includes 38 Melbourne metropolitan Councils and Government agencies, a current population of over four million people and 232,000 vulnerable properties within the current 1 in 100 year flood zone. The catchment’s population is forecast to almost double in size by 2050. 5. The catchment has a history of regular flooding and property inundation. The major rivers and creeks within the catchment include the Yarra River and its main tributaries including the Maribyrnong River, Moonee Ponds Creek, Gardiners and Merri Creeks, plus the Werribee River, Dandenong Creek and Bunyip River sub-catchments.

    June 1946 MEM. NAT. Mus. V1cT., 14, PT. 2, 1946. https://doi.org/10.24199/j.mmv.1946.14.06 THE SUNKLANDS OF PORT PHILLIP BAY AND BASS STRAIT By R. A. Keble, F.G.S., Palaeontologist, National Jiiiseurn of Victoria. Figs. 1-16. (Received for publication 18th l\fay, 1945) The floors of Port Phillip Bay and Bass Strait were formerly portions of a continuous land surface joining Victoria with Tasmania. This land surface was drained by a river system of which the Riv-er Y arra was part, and was intersected by two orogenic ridges, the Bassian and King Island ridges, near its eastern and western margins respectively. \Vith progressive subsidence and eustatic adjustment, these ridges became land bridges and the main route for the migration of the flora and fauna. At present, their former trend is indicated by the chains of islands in Bass Strait and the shallower portions of the Strait. The history of the development of the River Yarra is largely that of the former land surface and the King Island land bridge, and is the main theme for this discussion. The Yarra River was developed, for the most part, during the Pleistocene or Ice Age. In Tasmania, there is direct evidence of the Ice Age in the form of U-shaped valleys, raised beaches, strandlines, and river terraces, but in Victoria the effects of glaciation are less apparent. A correlation of the Victorian with the Tasmanian deposits and land forms, and, incidentally, with the European and American, can only be obtained by ascertaining the conditions of sedimentation and accumulation of such deposits in Victoria, as can be seen at the surface1 or as have been revealed by bores, particularly those on the N epean Peninsula; by observing the succession of river terraces along the Maribyrnong River; and by reconstructing the floor of Port Phillip Bay, King Bay, and Bass Strait, and interpreting the submerged land forms revealed by the bathymetrical contours.
