    South East Burnett Landcare Group Inc PO Box 34 GOOMERI QUEENSLAND 4601 30 April 2011 Qld Flood Commission of Enquiry PO Box 1738 Brisbane Qld 4001 RE: Proposed new Gauging Station below junction on Boonara and Nangur Creeks Dear Sir/Madam, On behalf of the South East Burnett Landcare group*, we would like make a submission to the Qld Flood Commission of Enquiry for the installation of a Gauging Station below the junction of Boonara and Nangur Creeks in the Gympie Regional Council area (see attached map). We have identified an ideal location at the bridge up Oakfield Road, which is Crown Land and provides easy access for DERM staff and maintenance. We currently have a gauging station at “Ettiewyn” on Boonara Creek (GS 136208A Boonara Creek). This station provides valuable information to landholders in the lower section of the creek. However, there is no other gauging station higher in this catchment and our group has identified a need both for those landholders in the Tansey/Booubyjan area. Many landholders have contacted us and following our meeting on 11 April 2011, and we have prepared this submission on their behalf. This area sustained major flood levels during the December/January event – the highest flood we’ve had on the Ettiewyn gauging station since it was installed in 1968 (10.335m). Landholders in the district received severe damage to fences, irrigation equipment, pumps, electrical equipment, motors, extensive debris, complete loss of crops (e.g. lucerne, sorghum etc), diesel tanks, road damage, dam erosion, severe creek damage. The Ettiewyn station is widely used by landholders to identify creek height and understand when action is necessary e.g.

  • (Do Not Rely on GPS) Route 1 – Gympie to Barambah EEC Via Widgee
    Directions to Barambah E.E.C. (do not rely on GPS) Route 1 – Gympie to Barambah EEC via Widgee The road via Widgee is 50 km and takes about 50 minutes from Gympie to the Centre. The last 16 km is a gravel forestry road so it is a bit steep and very rough in places. Travelling north on the Bruce Highway, at Gympie turn left at Monkland Street (where the traffic lights are after the Albert Park Sports fields – left-hand side). Go over the bridge over the Mary River and travel 1.7 km to Gympie South State School. Turn right into Widgee-Woolooga Road. The sign points to ‘Widgee’ and ‘Glastonbury’. Travel for 28 km, go past Widgee State School then just after crossing the bridge over Widgee Creek, turn left into Upper Widgee Road. Sign says ‘Manumbar’. Follow Upper Widgee Road for 9 km until you come to a ‘No Through Road’ sign. A forestry sign on the left says ‘Gallangowan, Wrattens A Flat, Coolamon Road’. Turn right here (Quandong Road). The gravel starts after the next grid. Follow this road for 16 km up the range and along the ridge tops. Keep on this road following signs to ‘Gallangowan’. There are currently two sections of road that have degraded over the last 12 months. Be careful of exposed rocks approximately 1.5 to 2km after the Black Snake Road turn off (on the right-hand side). These rocks are in the middle of the road (on a corner as the road rises over a crest).
