  • What We Heard
    Drought community consultation Fact sheet I What we heard Community Drought Consultation What we heard In February and March 2020, the NSW Department of Planning, Industry and Environment (the department) held a fourth series of meetings to discuss drought and water availability issues - this time in the Hunter and North Coast areas. The purpose of these meetings was to hear community views on how water should be managed in times of limited supplies and to provide advice on current water availability and water resource outlooks. At the North Coast meetings, with recent improvements in the water supply situation, discussions were about risks to water access during dry periods and how the NSW Government can further support communities through the next drought. The meetings were held in the Hunter, Richmond and Bellinger River valleys. Details of locations and groups represented at each meeting can be found at the end of this document. Key information provided at the meetings The meetings were run by an independent facilitator and the following information was provided: ● The department provided an update on the water security outlook and an overview of how the NSW Government manages extreme events; drought and poor water quality ● The department outlined the development of regional water strategies ● WaterNSW provided an overview of drought conditions state-wide and specific river valley drought management measures ● Local Land Services provided an overview of their role in drought, flood and fire recovery and managing livestock during difficult conditions. Copies of or links to the presentations from DPIE-Water and WaterNSW are available on the DPIE website: www.industry.nsw.gov.au/water/allocations-availability/droughts-floods/drought- update/information-sessions Issues that were raised at each of the public meetings are summarised below.

Hi members and friends, It has been yet another very successful year and thanks go to all those members who contributed in whichever way they could. Most of our outings continue to attract a lot of interest and even after 30 years we still manage a variety of interesting activities without repeating too much from previous years. Society outings again reflected our wide range of interests, from Bob Bagnall’s fascinating tour of old Plattsburg to a superbly organised weekend of pure geology looking at the structure and stratigraphy of the Lorne Basin near Taree with new member Winston Pratt. The safari to the North Coast of New South Wales was moderately successful and venturing off the more frequented tracks revealed some astonishing scenery and more than a few interesting rocks. A few people even climbed Mount Warn- ing. It was very surprising to see such a large turnout at the geological seminar at Ron’s place in Octo- ber, where Brian and Ron struggled successfully to get through a packed program of mineral and rock identification, with Barry following up with an excellent account of map reading.

This report investigates numerous interconnection and supply scenarios that aim to maximise the benefit of a regional approach and presents the key issues for consideration.

  • Rocky Creek Began, the Area Proclaimed a Water Reserve in 1891
    Just over one hundred years ago the first plans toward sourcing water from Rocky Creek began, the area proclaimed a water reserve in 1891. Dr J J Doyle, the then Bishop of Lismore, was an early advocate for the Rocky Creek site. It is said he “knew the configuration of the country having made his first trip over the old Nightcap Road to the Tweed in 1878.” A story from Stan Thomas of Mullumbimby (documented in 1977) says they arrived at Bullfrog Creek in July 1906. Their property comprised 114 acres grass, 121 acres scrubland, and 40 acres forest and bordered the Old Tweed Road, Rocky Creek, and the present road to the spillway area, and there was “a fence between us and a small farm adjoining the Whian State Forest.” Stan married in 1930, remaining at the homestead until around 1950 when “the County Council repossessed the farm.” He tells the story of neighbour, Mr Chittock, who decided to put a bridge over Rocky Creek. “He hired a bullock team and had two very long trees pulled across at a narrow place. Before the decking was on the bridge we had another flood which carried the logs downstream. A little further down the creek was a 90 degree left-hand bend in the creek and the logs lodged there. Next time I saw him I said: „You lost your bridge, Christie.‟ He said dryly: „No, I never lost it, I know where it is.‟” Stan says six other farms were “lost to production”, much of which is now covered with water.
