FOREWORD In the weeks following the March flood within the local community there was much discussion with family, friends, business people and citizens about the magnitude of the flood disaster. So many aspects were ill timed, badly worded and not as effective as the way floods were managed in a much less structured and centralised fashion in the past. The Public Forums that were organised by the SES for the North, South CBD and East Lismore areas of the town generated a considerable degree of anger and disgust at the failure of the SES Senior Executives to confront the community and discuss the many aspects of the management of the flood event that were badly handled.

  • 2020 July Water Allocation Statement NSW Groundwater Sources
    Water Allocation Statement NSW Groundwater Sources 1 July 2020 Opening water allocations 2020-21 Groundwater users The NSW Department of Planning, Industry and Environment today announced opening groundwater allocations for the 2020-21 water year. The 2019-20 water year delivered generally low rainfall and high temperatures. Groundwater sources across NSW were heavily relied upon due to severe water shortages for most of the year. Available Water Determinations (AWDs) are the first action implemented under water sharing plan rules to return groundwater extraction to within sustainable limits. Where the extraction limit for a groundwater source is exceeded, the response is to reduce the amount of water allocated. Three groundwater sources, listed below, have triggered this action for 2020-21. While the plan rules are designed to “return average annual extractions in the relevant groundwater source to the long term average annual extraction limit”, this can be done over a period of time, allowing water users to adjust their extraction, rather than immediately applying a zero or near zero allocation. However, it should be noted that although extraction may be within long-term sustainable extraction limits for a groundwater source, there may be localised significant drawdown causing impacts that must be managed. In this case, temporary water restrictions are applied to limit the access to water in accounts for a period while water levels recover. Upper Lachlan Zone 1 Management Zone is one such groundwater source. The allocations to licence categories in all water sources are tabulated below. In summary, all licence categories will receive a full allocation for the 2020-21 water year, apart those aquifer access licences in the three water sources listed immediately below where their extraction limits have been exceeded, those linked to reduced surface water allocations, and those in the Upper Namoi Zone 1 groundwater source that will receive an available water determination of 2.3 ML per share in accordance with the water sharing plan rules.

    1 Current water accounts and water quality for the Clarence-Moreton bioregion Product 1.5 from the Clarence-Moreton Bioregional Assessment 22 October 2015 A scientific collaboration between the Department of the Environment, Bureau of Meteorology, CSIRO and Geoscience Australia The Bioregional Assessment Programme The Bioregional Assessment Programme is a transparent and accessible programme of baseline assessments that increase the available science for decision making associated with coal seam gas and large coal mines. A bioregional assessment is a scientific analysis of the ecology, hydrology, geology and hydrogeology of a bioregion with explicit assessment of the potential direct, indirect and cumulative impacts of coal seam gas and large coal mining development on water resources. This Programme draws on the best available scientific information and knowledge from many sources, including government, industry and regional communities, to produce bioregional assessments that are independent, scientifically robust, and relevant and meaningful at a regional scale. The Programme is funded by the Australian Government Department of the Environment. The Department of the Environment, Bureau of Meteorology, CSIRO and Geoscience Australia are collaborating to undertake bioregional assessments. For more information, visit http://www.bioregionalassessments.gov.au. Department of the Environment The Office of Water Science, within the Australian Government Department of the Environment, is strengthening the regulation of coal seam gas and large coal mining development by ensuring that future decisions are informed by substantially improved science and independent expert advice about the potential water related impacts of those developments.
