  • Annan and Endeavour River Freshwater and Estuarine Water Quality Report
    Annan and Endeavour River Freshwater and Estuarine Water Quality Report An Assessment of Ambient Water Quality and Effects of Land Use 2002 – 2009 CYMAG Environmental Inc. Cooktown, Queensland March 2012 Written by Christina Howley1. Reviewed by Dr. Andrew Brooks2, Jon Olley2, Jason Carroll3 1: Howley Environmental Consulting/ CYMAG Environmental Inc. 2: Griffith University, Australian Rivers Institute, 3: South Cape York Catchments For a copy of this report or more information e-mail: [email protected] CYMAG: Formed in 1992 as the Cooktown Marine Advisory Committee, CYMAG (Cape York Marine Advisory Group) has evolved from that of a purely advisory capacity to a group that concentrates on a diverse range of environmental mapping, monitoring and assessment programmes. Based on local community concerns, CYMAG developed and implemented a community based water quality monitoring project for the Annan and the Endeavour Rivers in 2002. Monthly monitoring of these rivers has created the first extensive database of water quality monitored on a regular basis on Cape York Peninsula. This baseline data has allowed us to observe impacts that have occurred to these rivers from mining and other developments within the catchments. Data from all of our water quality monitoring projects is entered in the QLD DERM database making it available to natural resource managers and other land users. (Ian McCollum, CEO) Acknowledgements From 2002 to 2005 all work was conducted by CYMAG & SCYC volunteers. Logistical support, boats, vehicles, fuel, monitoring design and project management were contributed by local scientists and volunteers. Initial funding for monitoring equipment came from the Great Barrier Reef Marine Park Authority (GBRMPA).

Contact the Department of Environment and Resource Management on (07) 3404 3070 or email <[email protected]>. Published May 2009 ISBN 9 311662 182357 #28813 1 Archer Basin Wild River Declaration Consultation Report 2009 Foreword This report has been prepared to summarise the issues raised during the community consultation process, which includes the formal submission process, which supported development of the wild rivers declaration for Archer Basin Wild River Declaration 2009 and the government’s response to these issues. While the involvement of representative stakeholders provided essential checks and balances throughout the process, the public consultation process on the declaration proposal allowed for scrutiny of the provisions at the broadest level. Declaring the Archer Basin as a wild river area is an important step in preserving the natural values of the State’s unique wild rivers, which have largely been untouched by development, and are a vital part of our natural heritage. The declaration provides a framework for preserving these natural values in a way that balances the needs of a wide range of stakeholders. Although the intent of the declaration is to preserve the natural values of a wild river area, economic development can still occur in a wild river area.

There is no vehicular access and the tenement can only be reached by helicopter. There is however an old mineral exploration track that heads west from the Munburra Homestead to the Wakooka outstation 4WD track (the Wakooka track). Vehicle access within the tenement would be limited to the tracks cleared by an earlier mineral explorer. The terrain is incised by the Jeannie River and its tributaries and covered by low, open woodland of eight to 10m high Eucalypts with shrubs and grasses between. There is no infrastructure. The area has a monsoonal climate with a wet season from January to May and a dry season from June to December. The average annual rainfall for the closest weather station at Cooktown Mission is 1,665mm. The proposed 2007 exploration programme was not completed due to corporate issues with Friends’ parent company Supersorb. It is planned to undertake this programme in the 2008 dry season.
