Port Hedland AREA PLANNING STUDY Foreword Port Hedland is one of the Pilbara’s most historic and colourful towns. The townsite as we know it was established by European settlers in 1896 as a service centre for the pastoral, goldmining and pearling industries, although the area has been home to Aboriginal people for many thousands of years. In the 1960s Port Hedland experienced a major growth period, as a direct result of the emerging iron ore industry.

To compile a comprehensive profile of the contemporary social environment of the East Kimberley region utilising both existing information sources and limited fieldwork. 2. Develop and utilise appropriate methodological approaches to social impact assessment within a multi-disciplinary framework. 3. Assess the social impact of major public and private developments of the East Kimberley region's resources (physical, mineral and environmental) on resident Aboriginal communities. Attempt to identify problems/issues which, while possibly dormant at present, are likely to have implications that will affect communities at some stage in the future. 4. Establish a framework to allow the dissemination of research results to Aboriginal communities so as to enable them to develop their own strategies for dealing with social impact issues. 5. To identify in consultation with Governments and regional interests issues and problems which may be susceptible to further research.

  • Minister Declines Cultural Heritage Protection Conversation with Aboriginal People
    Minister declines Cultural Heritage protection conversation with Aboriginal people MEDIA RELEASE: 23 August 2021 On the eve of the 7th Annual On-Country Bush Meeting at the Yule River Meeting Place, it is with disappointment that YMAC shares the news that the Minister for Aboriginal Affairs has declined the opportunity to attend the important event. The Yule River meeting, which is where Aboriginal people will discuss their concerns about cultural heritage protection, is being held on Wednesday 25 and Thursday 26 August. The focus of discussions will be on the Aboriginal Cultural Heritage Bill, which Minister Stephen Dawson intends to introduce to parliament this year. During the State Government’s 18 August presentation on its latest amendments to the Bill limited information was provided to show how - in practice - heritage will be able to be protected by the owners of Australia’s Cultural Heritage in Western Australia. YMAC CEO Mr Simon Hawkins said the Minister’s no-show is a missed opportunity to hear directly from the community. “The Labor Government consistently states that agreement-making is at the heart of the Aboriginal Cultural Heritage Bill, but the Minister’s non-attendance flies in the face of those claims.” “It is disappointing that the Minister, who is also the Member for the Mining and Pastoral Region, has not seen fit to send a representative on his behalf to what is one of the most important annual events for the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples of the Pilbara.” The Minister has attended previous Yule River meetings and has made a commitment to co- designing the associated regulations for the new heritage laws with Aboriginal people.

  • Groundwater Resource Assessment and Conceptualization in the Pilbara Region, Western Australia
    Earth Systems and Environment https://doi.org/10.1007/s41748-018-0051-0 ORIGINAL ARTICLE Groundwater Resource Assessment and Conceptualization in the Pilbara Region, Western Australia Rodrigo Rojas1 · Philip Commander2 · Don McFarlane3,4 · Riasat Ali5 · Warrick Dawes3 · Olga Barron3 · Geof Hodgson3 · Steve Charles3 Received: 25 January 2018 / Accepted: 8 May 2018 © Springer International Publishing AG, part of Springer Nature 2018 Abstract The Pilbara region is one of the most important mining hubs in Australia. It is also a region characterised by an extreme climate, featuring environmental assets of national signifcance, and considered a valued land by indigenous people. Given the arid conditions, surface water is scarce, shows large variability, and is an unreliable source of water for drinking and industrial/mining purposes. In such conditions, groundwater has become a strategic resource in the Pilbara region. To date, however, an integrated regional characterization and conceptualization of the occurrence of groundwater resources in this region were missing. This article addresses this gap by integrating disperse knowledge, collating available data on aquifer properties, by reviewing groundwater systems (aquifer types) present in the region and identifying their potential, and propos- ing conceptualizations for the occurrence and functioning of the groundwater systems identifed. Results show that aquifers across the Pilbara Region vary substantially and can be classifed in seven main types: coastal alluvial systems, concealed channel
