Tamar River Headwaters Natural Restoration Plan 2 The Tamar Yacht Club (TYC) is one of the oldest Yacht Clubs in the southern hemisphere and is amongst the longest existing landholders in the headwaters of the Tamar River. POSITION STATEMENT 1. The TYC has taken the decision to enter and lead the community debate regarding the future of the Tamar River. 2. The TYC will now focus on the overdue return of the Tamar River to its fully natural state as existed prior to the hydro development.

  • B South Esk Catchment
    B SOUTH ESK CATCHMENT 1.0 Hydrology The South Esk River rises in the North Eastern highlands near Mathinna initially travelling southwards before passing through the Fingal Valley and finally turning northwards and draining into the Tamar River estuary at Launceston. Upstream of the confluences with the Macquarie and Meander rivers the major tributaries include the Break O’Day, St Pauls and Nile rivers. Many smaller streams contribute water to the South Esk mainly from the North- East highlands around Ben Lomond (eg Storeys Creek and Buffalo Brook). 1.1 Historical Background Measurement of river heights in the South Esk River has a long history. Unfortunately these measurements are not always useful indicators of flow due to changes in the channel such as growth and destruction of vegetation, aggradation and scouring of river beds, etc. Such changes provide unstable relationships between gauge height and flow. Nevertheless, many of the gauge height stations continue to be maintained and in many instances are the major tools used for flood warning. The South Esk is a relatively flat river for much of its length and there are often large areas where natural backwaters occur. There are therefore limited opportunities along the river to collect stream flow information and it was not until the 1950's that two reasonable locations were instrumented. These two sites - one at Llewellyn and the other at Perth - have collected streamflow information for around 40 years and are therefore invaluable in assessing the water yields, flood and drought behaviour of the river system. Unfortunately the early record at Llewellyn (prior to 1973) is subject to a major review by the Hydro-Electric Commission and could not be used for this study.

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.

  • A City on a Floodplain Protecting Launceston from a 1 in 200 Ari Flood
    LAUNCESTON - A CITY ON A FLOODPLAIN PROTECTING LAUNCESTON FROM A 1 IN 200 ARI FLOOD A Fullard 1 1Launceston Flood Authority, Launceston, TAS Introduction Launceston is a city of some 70,000 people, with a portion of its CBD and major northern suburb, Invermay, situated on the natural floodplain at the confluence of the Tamar River estuary and the North and South Esk Rivers. Much of Invermay is below the high tide level and is reliant upon levees for its sustainability. Refer Figure 1 for extent of Launceston's flooding if levee were not present. The Invermay area is now considered a desirable inner city suburb populated by a large number of young and middle-aged people indicating its potential for growth. Much of Launceston's cultural centre, including Launceston's Museum, Aurora Sports Stadium, and campuses of the University of Tasmania, are located there. The flood prone area of the CBD is a mixture of residential and commercial enterprises and is home to Boags Brewery and historic buildings associated with Launceston's port history. Launceston has been subject to 35 significant floods since records began, with the 1929 flood reputedly being the worst, displacing over 4000 residents and rendering many buildings uninhabitable. Much of the lower CBD was also inundated during this flood. Two floods in 1852 and 1863 are recorded to be higher than the 1929 flood; however the 1929 flood had the most severe consequences and is etched into the history of Launceston. Figure 1 - Launceston's CBD and suburb of Invermay inundation area without levees. 1 Following a significant design report by the Launceston Flood Protection Authority in 1959 (Munro, 1959), a levee system was constructed during the following decade to protect the CBD and Invermay.

Contrary to a long and widely held belief that they were a stone age people who were destined to die out as a result of 10,000 years of isolation from the Australian mainland, more recent research indicates that they were a dynamic people who not only reshaped their culture and society during the Holocene, but were increasing in population at British colonisation in 1803. (Lourandos 1997:281) By 1835 only one family remained in Tasmania. The vast majority had been killed, or had died from introduced disease, or had been forcibly removed from their homeland. The only survivors were those who escaped government control - in a sealing community on the Bass Strait islands. 1803-1821: British colonisation of Tasmania 1803: Informal colonisation commenced when small groups of British men employed in the sealing industry on the Bass Strait islands, initiated seasonal contact with Aboriginal groups along Tasmanias northern coastline. They traded seal carcasses and dogs in exchange for Aboriginal women for sexual and economic purposes. Sporadic conflict over women took place but few records exist of the details.
