However, to facilitate usage, the information has been laid out as described in the following paragraphs. 4.2 Long Term Reference Information 4.2.1 Long Term Reference Information is contained, generally, in the AIP Book and is addressed in three major parts - General (GEN), En Route (ENR), and Aerodromes (AD). Where operational or planning information is liable to change at short notice or is designed specifically for use in the air, such information is contained in the documents which are supplementary to the AIP Book. Where required, the AIP Book will refer the reader to the appropriate AIP documentation. 4.3 Short Term and Operational Reference Information 4.3.1 Short Term Reference Information, or information used principally for airborne operations, is contained in the documents which are supplementary to the AIP Book. 4.4 The AIP documents and charts identified at para 3.2 are designed to stand alone to enable users to access information relevant to their operation.

    DEPARTMENT OF DEFENCE SUBMISSION TO WA EPA’S PUBLIC CONSULTATION IN RELATION TO STRATEGIC ADVICE ON CUMULATIVE IMPACTS IN EXMOUTH GULF Defence Submission to the Western Australian Environmental Protection Authority’s Strategic Advice on Cumulative Impacts in Exmouth Gulf study Part A - Introduction Defence Context 1. Defence’s primary role is to protect and advance Australia’s strategic interests through the promotion of security and stability, provision of military capabilities to defend Australia and its national interests, and provision of support to the Australian community and civilian authorities as directed by Government. 2. The 2016 Defence White Paper, and the 2020 Defence Strategic Update affirmed the importance of effective environmental management to the success of the Defence mission. In order to defend Australia and its interests, the Australian Defence Force must have access to high quality facilities and training areas, and this means Defence activities and the Defence estate must be managed in a sustainable and environmentally responsible manner. 3. Defence is the largest Commonwealth landholder and one of the largest overall landholders in Australia. The Defence estate comprises around 700 owned and leased properties over approximately 2.5 million hectares of land, covering all states and territories in Australia. The estate includes bases, training areas and ranges, research facilities and office accommodation across a diverse range of air, land and sea environments. 4. In addition to managing a large land estate, Defence is responsible for national security over one of the largest maritime estates in the world and in discharging these duties, trains and operates over large spans of ocean and airspace.

  • Submission by John Donahoo
    The Secretary Senate Foreign Affairs, Defence and Trade Committee PO Box 6100 Parliament House CANBERRA ACT 2600 Sent by Email to: [email protected] CONTAMINATION OF AUSTRALIAN DEFENCE FORCE FACILITIES FROM THE USE OF FIRE FIGHTING FOAMS Attached is my submission to the Senate Foreign Affairs, Defence and Trade Committee on the above referred matter. My submission only addresses the contamination at RAAF Base Williamtown and the surrounding areas. Yours faithfully John Donahoo FIE(Aust) MEDOWIE NSW 2318 14 December 2015 Attachment: Submission by John Donahoo SUBMISSION BY JOHN DONAHOO CONTAMINATION OF RAAF BASE WILLIAMTOWN AND SURROUNDING AREAS BY AQUEOUS FILM FORMING FOAM (AFFF) Introduction If a natural disaster occurred in some faraway land that many Australians have never heard about, our Federal Government would be the first to chip in ten or twenty million dollars in relief funding. However, a situation has arisen where a Commonwealth made disaster has occurred here in our own backyard, and both our Federal and State Governments have yet to grab this problem by the throat and properly look after their own people. In the past, the Federal Government has been quick to criticise insurance companies for being slow to approve insurance claims after natural disasters. In this case, as the Commonwealth carries its own insurance, and as they are clearly liable for compensation, then they should heed their own advice and commence negotiating properly and expeditiously with all affected landowners and leaseholders. Normally a running commentary is not provided by government agencies when they are dealing with a problem. However, in this case where a very difficult problem has arisen, that is exactly what they should have done, and should be now doing.

    Legislative Council Thursday, 11 August 2011 THE PRESIDENT (Hon Barry House) took the chair at 10.00 am, and read prayers. SKILLED LOCAL JOBS BILL 2011 Petition HON MATT BENSON-LIDHOLM (Agricultural) [10.02 am]: I present a petition containing 62 signatures couched in the following terms — To the President and Members of the Legislative Council of the Parliament of Western Australia in Parliament assembled. We the undersigned residents of Western Australia say the WA Parliament should pass laws that ensure a greater share of skilled engineering and fabrication work for our major resources projects is performed in Western Australia. Our major resources projects are increasingly sending their skilled work offshore. Many of Western Australia’s fabrication workshops are almost empty and our engineers have to go overseas if they want to help design our LNG projects. Our natural resources can only be used once and we should use the current resources construction boom to provide training and apprenticeships for our young people, so that they can have a future after the boom. Your petitioners therefore respectfully request the Legislative Council to support the Skilled Local Jobs Bill 2011 with the objective of ensuring a greater share of skilled work for our major resources projects is performed in Western Australia. And your petitioners as in duty bound, will ever pray. [See paper 3587.] MANDATORY SENTENCING — MENTAL HEALTH Petition HON LINDA SAVAGE (East Metropolitan) [10.03 am]: I present a petition containing 55 signatures couched in the following terms — To the President and Members of the Legislative Council of the Parliament of Western Australia in Parliament assembled.

  • To View the in Praise of RAAF Cooks
    IN PRAISE OF RAAF COOKS “Food is an important part of a balanced diet.” Fran Lebowitz Introduction “ OPCOM on the line, Sir.” “Thanks.” “Muldy, you’ve got a Yankee Admiral coming for lunch next Friday.” “Who is it?” “Sinkpack.” “Ok. I presume the CO of Harold E. Holt has to be invited?” “Yup.” “Ok. Thanks Sir.” In those circumstances, I needed the immediate advice of the Duty Cook, Corporal Balawyder. Please do note that the RAAF custom of the day was (sensibly) to use the term “cook” not “chef” or "Food Provider”. This was because the highest praise one could give of the person dearest to our collective heart, our mother, was that she was a good cook. Not Chef. Not Nigella. Not Lydia’s Italian Table. But cook. And so this small tribute is addressed to RAAF cooks and this term will be used throughout in praise and thanks. For eight officers on strength at 5ACS in 1974, here is a sample of a standard lunch RAAF menu. Does it not bring a mist of tears to your eyes? It was 1974. I was Acting CO, 5 Airfield Construction Squadron (5ACS), RAAF Base Learmonth, elevation 6 metres, which is situated on the Western edge of 2.5 Square Kilometres of WA desert, adjacent to Exmouth Gulf and 36km south of Exmouth town. We had a strength of about 150 including eight officers. Learmonth was an airstrip which had been extended by the Squadron to allow F111 aircraft operations in case of conflict with Indonesia. In August 1973 the Government announced 5 ACS would be disbanded.
