Authorised by the State Government of Victoria, 50 Lonsdale Street, Melbourne. Printed on sustainable paper by Impact Digital, Unit 3-4, 306 Albert St, Brunswick 3056 March 2011 (1101024) Foreword The provision of safe drinking water to Victoria’s urban and rural communities is essential for maintaining public health and wellbeing. In Victoria, drinking water quality is protected by legislation that recognises drinking water’s importance to the state’s ongoing social and economic wellbeing. The regulatory framework for Victoria’s drinking water is detailed in the Safe Drinking Water Act 2003 and the Safe Drinking Water Regulations 2005. The Act and Regulations provide a comprehensive framework based on a catchment-to-tap approach that actively safeguards the quality of drinking water throughout Victoria. The main objectives of this regulatory framework are to ensure that: • where water is supplied as drinking water, it is safe to drink • any water not intended to be drinking water cannot be mistaken for drinking water • water quality information is disclosed to consumers and open to public accountability.

AOC-Abs2005.Pdf
St Mary’s Parish Centre, 61 Maxwell Road, Blenheim. Welcome On behalf of the Ornithological Society of New Zealand we are pleased to welcome you to Blenheim and the Third Australasian Ornithological Conference. Delegates have come from all parts of Australia and New Zealand and some from even further afield. Some are presenting papers reporting work done elsewhere including New Guinea, East Timor and the Cook Islands. We are delighted that the sphere of interest in these conferences is expanding to take in the fascinating avifaunas of other nations in the wider Australasian/Pacific regions. We have been over whelmed by the number of interesting papers offered for presentation. We have had to run concurrent sessions for the entire duration of the conference and for parts of one day resorted to running a third session. Even then we were unable to allow all those people who offered a spoken paper the opportunity to present their work. We apologize to those who missed out. The programme contains the rich mix of science and conservation typical of AOC conferences. Doubts have been expressed as to the wisdom of holding a conference in Blenheim rather than on a university campus. We are certain that those who go on the fieldtrips will understand why Blenheim was chosen. Marlborough is arguably the wine and food capital of New Zealand and our sponsor Grove Mill Winery and our caterers promise fare unequalled on any university campus. We trust that the conference will stimulate discussion and that many new friendships are forged and old acquaintances renewed.

The table beneath provides a quick summary of MAD statistics and facts. MAD SNAPSHOT We are the most isolated community in Victoria The 87,500ha Croajingolong National Park is central to our diverse district. The Croajingolong National Park is home to 306 bird species, 52 mammal species and 26 reptile species, some of which are endangered. In 1972, the earliest fossil trackways of primitive tetrapods - the first backboned animals on land -were found preserved in the Genoa River Gorge, dating back 350 million years. Gabo Island is the largest known breeding colony of little penguins. We inhabit the indigenous nations of the Bidwal, Gunnaijurnai and Monero (Ngarigo) people.

Determination of Spawning Areas And
l MARINE ECOLOGY PROGRESS SERIES Vol. 199: 231-242,2000 Published June 26 Mar Ecol Prog Ser 1 Determination of spawning areas and larval advection pathways for King George whiting in southeastern Australia using otolith microstructure and hydrodynamic modelling. I. Victoria Gregory P. ~enkins'**,Kerry P. Black2, Paul A. Hamer1 'Marine and Freshwater Resources Institute, PO Box 114, Queenscliff, 3225 Victoria, Australia 2Centre of Excellence in Coastal Oceanography and Marine Geology, Ruakura Satellite Campus, University of Waikato, PB3105 Hamilton, New Zealand ABSTRACT: We used larval durat~onestimated from otoliths of post-larval King George whiting Silla- ginodes punctata collected from bays and inlets of central Victoria, Australia, and reverse simulation with a numerical hydrodynamic model, to estimate spawning sites and larval advection pathways. Larval duration increased from west to east for post-larvae entering Port Phillip Bay, Western Port and Corner Inlet. The period of recruitment to bays and inlets was relatively fixed; the longer larval dura- tions were associated with earlier spawning times. Larval durations for post-larvae entering Port Phillip Bay were longer for 1989 compared with 1994 and 1995. Reverse modelling based on larval durations for the 3 bays in 1995 suggested that most post-larvae were derived from spawning in western Victoria and southeastern South Australia. The centre of the predicted spawning &stribution was ca 400 to 500 km from the recruitment sites and the region of intense spawning was spread along approximately 300 km of coastline. For Corner Inlet, however, a small proportion of the spawning may have occurred in central Victoria, within 200 km of the recruitment site, with larvae transported in a clockw~segyre around Bass Strait.
