An engineering consultant's report in May 1989 found no engineering factors precluding construction of a dam at the Junction Water Hole and suggested feasibility studies be undertaken, including environmental constraints. Previous investigations for purely recreational lakes undertaken in the Alice Springs area included feasibility studies of Emily Creek in September 1985 and an environmental review for a dam on the Todd River in 1981. The latter report mentioned the possibility of an increase in mosquito borne arbovirus activity. The former report outlined the need to consider arboviruses and to prevent new mosquito habitats. In January 1990 the Power and Water Authority approached the Department of Health and Community Services requesting a Medical Entomology investigation of the Junction Water Hole site to report on the present and potential biting insects and to assess the likely impact of a dam on insects of public health importance. The Medical Ent9mology Branch conducted a field investigation of the site from 27 February 1990 to 1 March 1990. This report outlines the results of the field examination and conclusions on the impact of a dam in respect to biting insects. 2.0 FIELD INVESTIGATIONS 2.1 Aim The aim of the investigation was to determine the species of mosquitoes present at the dam site and in the general vicinity, together with a measure of their abundance and their specific breeding sites. This information and other field observations would then be used to assess and report on the likely impact of the dam with regard to potential pest and public health problems posed by biting insects. 2.2 Surface Water Survey A surface water survey was carried out both upstream and downstream of the proposed dam site at Junction Water Hole to determine the present characteristics of any pools and the extent of surface water. Observations on the physical and biological characteristics were noted, including water depth, edge substrate, presence of vegetation, and the presence of relevant/aquatic life other than mosquito larvae. 2.3 Larval Samplinq Method The mosquito larval survey was conducted in the vicinity of the proposed dam site and a number of selected sites along the Todd River including Wiggleys Water Hole, the Telegraph Station and Heavitree Gap. Wiggleys Water Hole represents the more permanent natural pools in an undeveloped area receiving considerable recreation use , the Telegraph Station represents a sandy river bed receiving seepage and nutrients from a developed recreation area, while Heavitree Gap represents a sandy river bed receiving waste water via storm water drains from an urban environment. Larval sampling was carried out with the aid of a standard larval dipper at selected or prospective habitats. A number of dips were taken at each site to determine the average number of larvae per dip and the growth stages (instars) of larvae present. Samples were only taken from pools representing the different habitats in one area. Larvae were collected alive and transferred to 70% alcohol at the end of each day. Selected samples were reared to adults. All larvae or reared adults were identified in the Medical Entomology laboratory in Darwin. 2.4 Adult Sampling Method Adult mosquito populations were sampled with dry ice (carbon dioxide) baited EVS light traps, which are standardized mosquito sampling devices widely used in Australia. Trap locations were chosen to sample populations near surface water habitats at the time of the survey. Traps were set at chest height before sundown and operated all night. Trap collection was between 7 and 8 am the following day. Traps were located as close to the river as possible and next to vegetation. All collections were sorted and identified on the day of collection, with reference samples taken for checking and inclusion into a reference insect collection at the Medical Entomology Branch in Darwin. 3.0 RESULTS 3.1 Surface Water Survey There were many pools in the bed of the Todd River from Erewe Thele to Heavitree Gap (See Map 1 ). Photos of the various habitats is shown as Appendix I. The pools near Erewe Thele included relatively large deep pools with discrete sand or rock margins. The shallow downstream edge contained a few small cut off pools. Between Erewe Thele and Junction Water Hole there is a 300 metre stretch of rock and sand pools with minor amounts of algae on rock surfaces below the water. A few pools had small stands of Typha reeds, but otherwise they were vegetation free and with relatively clear cool water.

  • When the River Runs Dry: Human and Ecological Values of Dry Riverbeds
    CONCEPTS AND QUESTIONS 202 When the river runs dry: human and ecological values of dry riverbeds Alisha L Steward1,2*, Daniel von Schiller3, Klement Tockner4, Jonathan C Marshall1, and Stuart E Bunn2 Temporary rivers and streams that naturally cease to flow and dry up can be found on every continent. Many other water courses that were once perennial now also have temporary flow regimes due to the effects of water extraction for human use or as a result of changes in land use and climate. The dry beds of these temporary rivers are an integral part of river landscapes. We discuss their importance in human culture and their unique diversity of aquatic, amphibious, and terrestrial biota. We also describe their role as seed and egg banks for aquatic biota, as dispersal corridors and temporal ecotones linking wet and dry phases, and as sites for the storage and processing of organic matter and nutrients. In light of these valuable functions, dry riverbeds need to be fully integrated into river management policies and monitoring programs. We also identify key knowledge gaps and suggest research questions concerning the values of dry riverbeds.

  • SO WHO the HELL WAS ALICE ANYWAY? the Naming of Alice Springs by Greg Barron
    SO WHO THE HELL WAS ALICE ANYWAY? The Naming of Alice Springs by Greg Barron William Whitfield Mills, Overseer of Section C of the Overland Telegraph line from Adelaide to Darwin, was heading north with men and heavy equipment, on the way to the starting point for his section of the line. He wrote in a report to his boss, Charles Todd, Superintendent of Telegraphs: “On the 7th (March 1871) I started again for the Ranges, the drays in the meantime following the Hugh (River). On March 11th I again arrived at the MacDonnell Ranges and was successful in finding a pass, about 30 miles east of Stuart's track, with numerous waterholes and springs, the principal of which is the Alice Spring which I had the honour of naming after Mrs Todd.” Lady Alice Todd, wife of the Superintendent of Telegraphs, inspired not only the name of the town, Alice Springs, but also the Todd River. Who was she, and why did she deserve such adoration? Alice Gillam Bell was born in 1836 in Cambridgeshire, England. When she was twelve years old a young man, Charles Heavitree Todd, assistant Astronomer at the Royal Observatory, Greenwich, came to call on her mother. Alice was lying on a bear skin rug in front of the fire, watching the visitor, impressed by his serious ways and dark good looks. “If no one else will have you, then I will marry you, Mr Todd,” she told him. Unlikely as it must have seemed at the time, the pair exchanged vows a few years later and Charles whisked her away to Adelaide, Australia.
