Aggregate is proposed to be delivered by ship to the GLB1 berth at Glebe Island. This report provides information relating to marine traffic, navigation and safety and outlines any potential maritime safety issues, and measures required to minimise and mitigate any impacts resulting from the proposed development. 2.0 Background The SSDA was submitted to the Department of Planning and Environment (DP&E) in March 2018 and subsequently placed on formal public exhibition for 5 weeks, between 11 April 2018 and 15 May 2018. On 20 August 2018, a Request for Additional Information (RFI) was issued by the DP&E. This report responds to the additional information sought in relation to the maritime traffic, safety and navigation impact assessment (Issues 30 – 32 under Schedule 1) for the new facility at Glebe Island. For the purposes of this SSDA, this statement provides a preliminary navigation impact assessment and outlines the general processes and guidelines in place that governs marine traffic flow within the context of the site at GLB1, Glebe Island and Sydney Harbour.

  • Existing Port Facilities CHAPTER 3
    Existing Port Facilities CHAPTER 3 Summary of key outcomes: Sydney’s ports provide a vital economic gateway for the Australian and NSW economies. In 2001/02, Sydney’s ports handled approximately $42 billion worth of international trade which represents 17% of Australia’s total international trade and 56% of NSW’s international air and sea cargo trade by value. Due to its proximity to the Sydney market, Port Botany is and will remain the primary port for the import and export of containerised cargo in NSW. Currently, over 90% of container trade passing through Sydney’s ports is handled at Port Botany. Port Botany Expansion Environmental Impact Statement – Volume 1 Existing Port Facilities CHAPTER 3 3 Existing Port Facilities 3.1 Role and Significance of Sydney’s Ports The port facilities of Sydney are located at Port Botany and within Sydney Harbour. These ports, along with the airport, are the economic gateways to NSW. This is reflected by the fact that in 2001/02 Sydney’s ports handled approximately $42 billion worth of international trade. This represents: $10,000 for each person in the greater Sydney region, which has a population of close to 4 million; 56% of NSW’s total international air and sea cargo trade by value; and 17% of Australia’s total international trade. Cargo throughput through Sydney’s ports (Sydney Ports Corporation owned and private berths) during 2001/02 was 24.3 million mass tonnes, with containerised cargo accounting for 43.9%. This trade comprised more than 1 million TEUs, 183,000 motor vehicles and about 13.6 million mass tonnes of bulk and general cargo.

    Media Contact: Anne Marie McLaughlin Office: 401-324-6033 Cell: 401-626-7615 [email protected] Museum Gallery at International Tennis Hall of Fame Named in Honor of 1968 Hall of Famer Mo Connolly NEWPORT, R.I., July 15, 2011— In 1953, Maureen “Mo” Connolly Brinker captured all four major tournament titles, becoming the first woman in history to achieve a calendar-year Grand Slam, and forever claiming herself a spot as one of the most successful American athletes of all time. For her achievements, Connolly Brinker was inducted to the International Tennis Hall of Fame & Museum in 1968, where she has been celebrated ever since. On July 9, during Hall of Fame Induction Weekend, Connolly Brinker was honored once more when a gallery in the Museum at the International Tennis Hall of Fame was named in her honor, thanks to the generous support of her family and the Maureen Connolly Brinker Tennis Foundation. During Hall of Fame Weekend, a ribbon cutting ceremony was hosted in the Museum’s 1950’s and 1960’s Gallery, Named in Loving Memory of Maureen Connolly Brinker. “Mo Connolly Brinker was undoubtedly one of the greatest champions of tennis, and her family and foundation have continued to be great supporters of the sport in her name,” said Mark L. Stenning, CEO of the International Tennis Hall of Fame & Museum. “We are grateful for their support of the International Tennis Hall of Fame & Museum and we are pleased for the opportunity to work with them to honor Mo and to preserve the history of tennis.” The gallery highlights great moments in tennis during the era which Connolly Brinker competed, including photos and video of international tennis stars, highlights of the Wightman and Fed Cup competitions, and a focus on the Australian Davis Cup team.

  • Glebe Island and White Bay Master Plan Incorporating the Ports Improvement Program and SEPP 61 Exempt and Complying Development November 2000 Introduction
    Glebe Island and White Bay Master Plan Incorporating the Ports Improvement Program and SEPP 61 Exempt and Complying Development November 2000 Introduction Glebe Island and White Bay form part of the area covered by State Regional Environmental Plan 26 (SREP 26). The State Government is committed to Sydney Harbour continuing to be a working harbour. Under the provisions of the SREP the site is zoned for “Port and Employment” uses. SREP 26 provides that development consent for development in the Glebe Island and White Bay Port Area is subject to a Master Plan adopted by the Minister for Urban Affairs and Planning. The Glebe Island and White Bay Master Plan will control and direct the future development of the Port facilities. The consent authority must take the Master Plan into consideration when determining a development application. The Master Plan requires a Ports Improvement Program to be established. The Ports Improvement Program includes guidelines that will enhance the appearance of the port through landscaping, signage and selected colour schemes and provide standards against which development will be assessed. This document is divided into two parts: Part A Master Plan Part B Ports Improvement Program Each part is an independent document. Future development needs to consider both parts. In order to provide a comprehensive set of planning instruments relating to the Glebe Island and White Bay Master plan area, a copy of State Environmental Planning Policy 61 is attached. This provides a simpler approvals process for routine proposals and clarifies the extent of exempt and complying development on port land. Letters from the Department of Urban Affairs and Planning indicating adoption of the Master Plan, approval of the Port Improvement Program and gazettal of SEPP 61 have also been inserted in front of each relevant part.
