  • Gwdir Shire Tourism Plan 2006 - 2011 1
    GWDIR SHIRE TOURISM PLAN 2006 - 2011 1. INTRODUCTION 1.1 Background Gwydir Shire is located on the western slopes and plains in north-western NSW. The Shire covers an area of 9122 square kilometres and lies between the New England Tablelands in the east and Moree - Narrabri to the west, and extends from the Bruxner Highway close to the Queensland border south to the Nandewar Range. The Shire has a population of 5,790 people. Warialda (population 1,750) and Bingara (pop 1,390) are the main towns within the Shire. These towns are located approximately 40km apart, with Bingara servicing the southern areas of the Shire, and Warialda the northern areas. There are also six villages, Warialda Rail (pop 100), Crooble (pop 40), Gravesend (pop 205), Upper Horton (pop<150), Croppa Creek (pop 120), Coolatai (pop 130) and North Star (pop 200). With the exception of Warialda Rail, the villages are relatively remote from the two main towns. The Shire draws its name from the Gwydir River which drains most of the southern and central areas of the Shire, with Bingara located on the Gwydir River, and Warialda on Reedy Creek, one of the larger head-water tributaries of the Gwydir. Bingara is located on the Fossickers Way, a tourist route that extends from Nundle near Tamworth north to Warialda and then east along the Gwydir Highway to Glen Innes via Inverell. The Fossickers Way between Tamworth and Warialda is located approximately mid-way between two major interstate arterial routes, the New England Highway to the east and the Newell Highway to the west, with the Fossickers Way being a viable scenic alternative to these highways.

The Project is a proposed underground (longwall) coal mining operation targeting the Hoskissons Coal seam, with an operational life of approximately 30 years. The Project is located in the New England North West Region, approximately 40 kilometres (km) south east of Gunnedah in NSW. The Project area is located within Exploration Licence (EL) 6505. Consistent with the requirements of the Strategic Regional Land Use Policy Guideline for Gateway Applicants (NSW Government, 2013) (Gateway Application Guidelines), the assessment relies on numerical modelling of potential risks of mine development in terms of the NSW Aquifer Interference (AI) Policy and Gateway Application requirements. This modelling was undertaken in consideration of the Murray-Darling Basin Commission (MDBC) Groundwater Flow Modelling Guideline (MDBC, 2001) and the relatively new National Guidelines, sponsored by the National Water Commission (Barnett et al., 2012). A review of the data, literature and conceptual hydrogeology associated with other studies from the area and surrounds was carried out as a basis for model development.
