ENVIRONMENTAL SURVEY RESULTS 4.1 SITE DESCRIPTIONS AND HABITAT ASSESSMENT Table 4-1 Summarised habitat descriptions for each site Site (representative image) Description Burlong Pool (control site upstream of WWTP) Burlong Pool is an analogue site located 9.5 km upstream of the WWTP discharge and is of similar size and condition to the potential impact site, Katrine Pool. It is one of the 16 priority rehabilitation pools identified by the DoW (2007). Situated between farmland with highly disturbed riparian vegetation consisting of fragments of native vegetation on right bank and predominantly exotic grasses, and good coverage on the left bank. Local grazing. Highly eroded banks in places as a result of vegetation clearing. Limited shading of the channel. Submerged and emergent macrophytes present (~30% of channel). Small amount of woody debris present. Deep channel in parts and heavily vegetated with macrophytes, although noticeably less after February 2017 floods. A small culvert at the road crossing/bridge allows pool formation as the river dries. Report to the Water CoRporation of Western Australia www.hydrobiology.biz Northam WWTP: Environmental Impact Assessment ● 44 Site (representative image) Description Mortlock (Mortlock River upstream WWTP) A control site situated at the edge of Northam township on the Mortlock River, just upstream from the confluence with the Avon River, and assessed for water quality only. The Mortlock River is known to be a significant contributor to nutrient and salt concentrations in the lower Avon River. The site is situated between grazing land and a public recreation/parking area (Enright Park Corroborree Site), with a small cement weir/river walkway presenting a physical barrier to fish passage in some flows.

  • Ancient Weathering Zones, Pedocretes and Palaeosols on the Australian Precambrian Shield and in Adjoining Sedimentary Basins: a Review
    Journal of the Royal Society of Western Australia, 89:57–82, 2006 Ancient weathering zones, pedocretes and palaeosols on the Australian Precambrian shield and in adjoining sedimentary basins: a review J B Firman 14 Giddens Court, North Lake, WA 6163 Manuscript received June 2005; accepted May 2006 Abstract A stratigraphic approach is used in this review of ancient weathering zones, mottled zones, pedocretes and palaeosols on the Australian Precambrian Shield and in adjoining sedimentary basins. Pedogenic features identified in the landscape during regional stratigraphic mapping have been traced along the western margin of the Australian Precambrian Shield. The weathered zones, pedocretes, mottled zones and palaeosols identified in South Australia and elsewhere have been extended into the Perth Basin where there are correlative conformities. The weathered zones, pedocretes, mottled zones and palaeosol units are described in a geochronological framework from Palaeozoic to Late Cainozoic. The weathering products of the Palaeozoic include the Playfair Weathering Zone. Mesozoic sequences include the Arckaringa Weathering Zone (a pallid zone in laterite profiles) and the San Marino mottled zone equivalent. The units taken together have been said by some authors to form “a distinctive basal horizon which underlies all true laterites”. The laterite in this sense refers to the ferricrete forming a caprock on older materials. Early and Middle Cainozoic sequences include bauxite, the Greenmount Ferricrete and the Calingiri Silcrete. Late Cainozoic sequences contain the Jumperdine Ferricrete and the Karoonda Soil (which in some places is a syndepositional silcrete), and the mottled zones of lateritic podzolic soils. The weathered zones, pedocretes and palaeosols were formed under different climatic regimes.

  • Surface-Rupturing Historical Earthquakes in Australia and Their Environmental Effects: New Insights from Re-Analyses of Observational Data
    geosciences Review Surface-Rupturing Historical Earthquakes in Australia and Their Environmental Effects: New Insights from Re-Analyses of Observational Data Tamarah R. King 1,* , Mark Quigley 1 and Dan Clark 2 1 School of Earth Sciences, University of Melbourne, Melbourne 3010, Australia; [email protected] 2 Geoscience Australia, Canberra 2609, Australia; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 2 August 2019; Accepted: 16 September 2019; Published: 20 September 2019 Abstract: We digitize surface rupture maps and compile observational data from 67 publications on ten of eleven historical, surface-rupturing earthquakes in Australia in order to analyze the prevailing characteristics of surface ruptures and other environmental effects in this crystalline basement-dominated intraplate environment. The studied earthquakes occurred between 1968 and 2018, and range in moment magnitude (Mw) from 4.7 to 6.6. All earthquakes involved co-seismic reverse faulting (with varying amounts of strike-slip) on single or multiple (1–6) discrete faults of 1 km length that are distinguished by orientation and kinematic criteria. Nine of ten earthquakes ≥ have surface-rupturing fault orientations that align with prevailing linear anomalies in geophysical (gravity and magnetic) data and bedrock structure (foliations and/or quartz veins and/or intrusive boundaries and/or pre-existing faults), indicating strong control of inherited crustal structure on contemporary faulting. Rupture kinematics are consistent with horizontal shortening driven by regional trajectories of horizontal compressive stress. The lack of precision in seismological data prohibits the assessment of whether surface ruptures project to hypocentral locations via contiguous, planar principal slip zones or whether rupture segmentation occurs between seismogenic depths and the surface.

Lot 226 represents a small but significant regional sand resources in the Peel Region, because it is strategically located adjacent to the Nambeelup Industrial Area. State Planning Policy No 2.4 Basic Raw Materials requires that identified sand resources are utilised prior to sterilisation, in line with State Planning Policy No 2.5, Agricultural and Rural Land Use Planning. Whilst the site lies just outside the area covered by SPP 2.4 (2000) it will be incorporated under the umbrella of the draft SPP 2.4 (2018) when the policy is finalised and released. The sand is anticipated to be mainly supplied into the Peel Region Scheme area. Landform restoration and rehabilitation to improved parkland pasture is to progressively follow excavation. The extraction of sand is seen as an interim use of the land prior to utilisation of the area as rural land.
