GLOSSARY OF TERMS The Proponent – CM Piacentini The Consultant – Brad Goode & Associates Pty Ltd AHA – Western Australian Aboriginal Heritage Act 1972 AHR – Aboriginal Heritage Regulations 1974 DIA – Department of Indigenous Affairs ACMC – Aboriginal Cultural Material Committee SWALSC – South West Aboriginal Land and Sea Council GKB – Gnaala Karla Booja CHMP – Cultural Heritage Management Plan WAM – Western Australian Museum POS – Public Open Space 1 REPORT OF AN ABORIGINAL HERITAGE SURVEY OF LOTS ASSOCIATED WITH THE GLEN IRIS – MOORLANDS STRUCTURE PLAN, BUNBURY, WESTERN AUSTRALIA EXECUTIVE SUMMARY CM Piacentini (‘the proponent’) is proposing to develop a residential subdivision upon Lots 317, 316, 315, 310, 314, 202, 312, 32, 61, and 62 at Glen Iris in Bunbury. The agents for the proponent, MPM Development Consultants, have commissioned Brad Goode and Associates to conduct a ‘Site Identification’ Aboriginal heritage survey, in order to determine whether any sites or places of significance, as defined by section 5 of the Aboriginal Heritage Act 1972 would be affected. The subject lots are bounded by the Preston River to the west, Moorlands and Jeffrey Roads to the northeast, Vittoria Road to the east and the Preston River and Kaeshagen Street to the south. The total survey area is 48.2 hectares. As a result of archival research there are no previously recorded ethnographic Aboriginal heritage sites or places located within the development area. One archaeological site and one archaeological other heritage place was identified to be located within the development area. The DIA extent for Other Heritage Place ID 4917 Bunbury 06 (Artefact) affects – Lot 310. The DIA extent of Site ID 5449 Moorland Bunbury (Burial) extent affects – Lots 202, 310, 315, 314, 313, and 312 (see Harris (2013) for details). Archival research has also determined that DIA site ID 19795 Preston River will be potentially affected by any obligations that the proponent may have in managing the section of ‘Regional Open Space’ (Lot 313) that separates the development area from the Preston River. Ground disturbing activities associated with this management may require consent under the AHA. As a result of consultations with the seven nominated representatives of GKB native title claim group and in relation to these archaeological sites, the Nyungar community have defined that these places represent a highly significant cultural landscape that marks their ancestors’ connection to the area, and their social historical associations with community and kin. In particular the large Marri tree located on the south-eastern side of the Other Heritage Place ID 4917 Bunbury 06 has become the cultural symbol that now signifies and connects the contemporary Nyungar community to this landscape. In terms of the development proposal and its affect upon the defined cultural values it is highly likely that the whole of the dune containing archaeological material and the former burial will undergo extensive modification, even if it is preserved as a park within the 10% requirement for ‘Public Open Space.’ In terms of mitigation the Nyungar community request that the sub-surface archaeological potential be investigated. This would assist interpretation of the social and scientific values that would otherwise be lost to the community from the sites destruction. Post development a further mitigative strategy would be for the proponent to commission detailed historic and oral historic research as a basis for interpretation. This would assist the Nyungar community to understand the prehistoric to historic context of their ancestors’ lives in the area and the contribution made to the regions development. In terms of the development proposal the Nyungar community would obviously wish the site and place to be preserved, however should the development proceed and should the site and place be destroyed, the final planning should be done in close consultation with the Gnaala Karla Booja working party at SWALSC. 2 REPORT OF AN ABORIGINAL HERITAGE SURVEY OF LOTS ASSOCIATED WITH THE GLEN IRIS – MOORLANDS STRUCTURE PLAN, BUNBURY, WESTERN AUSTRALIA As a result of the above survey the following recommendations can be made: Should the proponent wish to proceed with planning to urbanise the above lots (where Aboriginal heritage sites and places exist) it is recommended that further planning is done in close consultation with members of the GKB native title claim group in order to minimise the effects to ethnographic and archaeological cultural heritage values. Further consultation will be required in order that the GKB native title claim group members can assess how the final plans will affect these values prior to supporting a section 18 application under the AHA. At present the GKB native title group are not in support of the proponent seeking such consent. It is recommended that once a consensus upon management of these values is reached that the proponent will be required to make application under section 18 of the Western Australian Aboriginal Heritage Act 1972 for consent to use the land that may contain an Aboriginal Site, Site ID 5449 (Burial) and Other Heritage Place ID 4917 Bunbury 06 (Artefact). Should consent be given the following management requests should be given due consideration by the ACMC as conditions: • That the proponent protects the Marri tree and as much of the dune that contains artefacts around the tree as possible as within POS. • That the skeletal remains salvaged are to be returned to this site and reburied near the tree with an appropriate ceremony. • That the wetlands on Lots 317, 316, 315 and 32 are protected and revegetated with indigenous species. • That all excavations and ground clearing work located within the DIA extent of the sites and places are subjected to archaeological monitoring, recording and salvage, with all material salvaged returned to the POS around the tree. • That the POS is landscaped into a memorial park with a Nyungar theme and historical interpretative signage is provided that outlines the significance of the area to the GKB native title claim group. 3 REPORT OF AN ABORIGINAL HERITAGE SURVEY OF LOTS ASSOCIATED WITH THE GLEN IRIS – MOORLANDS STRUCTURE PLAN, BUNBURY, WESTERN AUSTRALIA CONTENTS ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS ........................................................................................................ 1 GLOSSARY OF TERMS ........................................................................................................... 1 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY ......................................................................................................... 2 CONTENTS ................................................................................................................................. 4 ISSUE ........................................................................................................................................... 6 REPORT OBJECTIVES ...........................................................................................................

[email protected] 2 Centre for Fish & Fisheries Research, Murdoch University, South St, Murdoch, WA 6150. [email protected] Manuscript received September 2007; accepted February 2008 Abstract A paucity of information exists on the fish and crayfish communities of two major rivers that flow into the Leschenault Inlet, south-western Western Australia. This study documents these communities and assesses their ecological significance. During February 2006, seven sites were sampled for fish and freshwater crayfish on each of the Brunswick River and Preston River with additional sites having been previously sampled in the summer of 1999/2000. The rivers generally had similar native fish communities with four endemic species, Freshwater Cobbler, Western Minnow, Western Pygmy Perch and Nightfish making up 60% of all fish captures (2670) with the remaining being from three feral freshwater and six estuarine species. Two native species of freshwater crayfish were also recorded, the Marron and Gilgie. The endemic Western Minnow and Western Pygmy Perch were the most common and widespread native fish species in both rivers. This study recorded what appears to be the Empire Gudgeon in the Preston River; the first record of this northern Australian species in the South-west Drainage Division, and its presence was attributed either to marine larval drift or as a result of an aquarium release.

  • Freshwater Trout a Recfishwest Feature Article October 2014
    Freshwater Trout A Recfishwest Feature Article October 2014 TROUT fishing has a surprisingly long and colourful history in Western Australia. The annual freshwater season in our South-West opens each year on September 1, and is keenly anticipated by a healthy group of trout enthusiasts, offering a significant boost to tourism and local economies. Fly fishing is the time-honoured way of catching trout around the world (Figure 1), but they can also be caught easily on traditional spinning tackle, just be aware that you need to have a freshwater fishing licence to catch them. Figure 1 Trout on fly can be enjoyed when the weather warms a little and the water levels are spot on The Beginning Although brown and rainbow trout are not native to local waters, they have been part of our inland aquatic environment for more than a century. The arrival of trout can be traced to the late-1800s and the desire of English settlers to recreate some of the sport and game opportunities of the motherland. Of course, it is will documented that some of these initiatives have backfired spectacularly – consider the ill-considered introduction of rabbits and foxes – but stocking trout has largely been a success with no significant environmental impacts and some very positive impacts for communities across the country. William Savelle-Kent (WA Fisheries Commissioner 1893-95) was one of the founders for relocating fish from other states to WA to help stock local rivers and streams of recreational species. He suggested that Murray Cod, Golden Perch, along with Brown and Rainbow Trout would thrive in WA water ways such as the Avon, Swan, Blackwood, Margaret and Preston rivers.
