Clarke d.f. branagan and t.g. vallance Abstract: Four previously unpublished letters, with memoranda of Rev. W.B. Clarke to W.S. Macleay, written between 1842 and 1845 clarify the ideas of both about the mode of formation of coal and the age of the stratigraphical succession in the Sydney Basin. Clarke makes the first mention of his discovery of the Lake Macquarie fossil forest, the first identification of the zeolite stilbite in New South Wales and gives details of his study of the volcanic rocks of the Upper Hunter Valley. Keywords: Clarke, Macleay, coal formation, Sydney Basin, stilbite INTRODUCTION essentially self-contained, although, of course, almost no letter can stand alone, but depends When Dr Thomas G.

  • Hunter Estuary Landmark Dates
    CRITICAL EVENTS AND DEVELOPMENT AFFECTING THE HUNTER ESTUARY SINCE 1970 Max Maddock Updated 30 December 2003 During January – February 2002, the community was made aware of proposals for industrial development in the Hunter Estuary by a series of articles in the Newcastle Herald. The proposed developments have the potential to destroy the estuary as a migratory wader habitat and as a Wetland of International Importance listed as a Ramsar site under the Ramsar Convention. They will have serious adverse effects on the complex ecology of the whole of the estuary and associated flood plain wetlands, resulting in changes to flood regime and damage to the fishing industry. In February 2003, during a pre-election visit by the Premier of NSW to Newcastle a concept plan for development of the port environs of the Hunter Estuary (KBR 2003), with even worse potential impacts, was released. Community consultation on the plan was promised. This document gives an analysis of historical events and documents relevant to developments and proposals for developments in the Hunter Estuary for the period 1970-2003. A summary of critical landmarks leading up to the recent industrial development proposals and the Newcastle Port Environs Concept Proposal and subsequent events, is given in the Appendix. The list is by no means exhaustive, but provides an insight into critical issues associated with the proposals. Government Environmental Policies, Acts and Legislation Both the NSW and Federal Governments have developed a set of key policies, Acts and legislation governing decision making on development proposals in wetland settings. In issues associated with wetlands of international importance, the State Government is bound to comply with the Federal requirements in addition to its own requirements, ensuring Ecologically Sustainable Development has been accepted by both governments as the fundamental underlying principle guiding assessment of development proposals.
