Weekly Report 17 April 2019
River Murray Weekly Report For the week ending Wednesday, 17 April 2019 Trim Ref: D19/22129 Rainfall and inflows Conditions were dry across the Murray-Darling Basin this week, with almost the entire basin devoid of any rainfall (map 1). The Bureau of Meteorology (BoM) is forecasting negligible rain over the coming 8 days. Map 1. Murray-Darling Basin rainfall map week ending 17 April 2019 (Source: Bureau of Meteorology) Flow in the upper Murray tributaries continued to recede this week. The flow in the upper Mitta Mitta River at Hinnomunjie Bridge reduced from 210 ML/day to 180 ML/day. The upper Murray at Biggara eased from 240 ML/day to 220 ML/day. Downstream of Hume Reservoir, inflow from the Kiewa River at Bandiana receded from 380 ML/day, to the current flow of 240 ML/day. Flow in the Ovens River at Wangaratta averaged 240 ML/day. In the northern Basin, flows resulting from rain over some upper catchments in recent weeks are continuing to move steadily downstream along various tributaries. The most significant flows resulted from rain over the far north of the Basin that generated flood flows along the upper Warrego River. These flows are now moving through the lower Warrego and spreading out through the large distributary network, including along the Cuttaburra Channel that connects flow across to the Paroo River. These flows are recharging wetlands and providing welcome benefits to a fairly parched region of the northern Basin, but are expected to provide little if any significant connecting flow through to the Darling River. -

The Hon Gladys Berejiklian MP Premier Parliament House SYDNEY NSW 2000 Dear Premier, Report – NSW Bushfire Inquiry In January 2020 you announced the establishment of the NSW Bushfire Inquiry, noting it was to be completed by 31 July 2020. We now submit the final report of that Inquiry. The 2019-20 bush fires were some of the worst in the world and in recorded history. The Inquiry has worked to understand what happened during the 2019-20 bush fire season and how it was different to seasons that have come before. It makes 76 recommendations for future improvements to how NSW plans and prepares for, and responds to, bush fires. Some of these recommendations are for immediate action; others for actions that need to start now but will take some time to complete. Noting the breadth of the Inquiry’s Terms of Reference, the recommendations range from improvements to operational systems and processes through to significant research and strategic policy frameworks that require further development and consultation with key stakeholders. In presenting this final report we wish to acknowledge the assistance of many people – those who took the time to write submissions or talk to the Inquiry; the NSW fire agencies; colleagues from government departments in NSW and other jurisdictions; colleagues in industry, research organisations, and professional associations; and the Secretariat and Advisors to the Inquiry drawn from several government departments who worked hard to help us make sense of a complex matter. -

The use of SA2 regions rather than Local Government Areas (LGAs) means that the above data is for a geographic region that may not exactly match the boundaries of the LGA in question. As such, the data in this report should be considered as the best approximation of the visitor profile in each LGA. TRA's change to SA2 reporting means that this profile is not comparable with previous LGA profile reports. Expenditure: Expenditure for this LGA is based on the TRA estimates for the larger tourism region. -
No. 106 Mr Alec Lucke
Submission No 106 INQUIRY INTO WATER AUGMENTATION Name: Mr Alec Lucke Date received: 22 March 2017 Alec Lucke 22 March 2017 Senate Inquiry into the augmentation of water supply for rural and regional NSW. Attention contact person Claire Armstrong Dear Claire, I have recently spoken with Inquiry Chairman Hon. Robert Brown and been encouraged to lodge a belated submission and ask that it be accepted by the above Senate Inquiry. I am available and would welcome the opportunity to appear in person before the Inquiry at either Tamworth or Moree. Thanking You, Yours sincerely, Alec Lucke Submission to NSW Senate Inquiry into the augmentation of water supply for rural and regional NSW. The principal focus of this submission is on cold water pollution (CWP) for which the State has responsibility. This submission is made under item 1, 1 (f) and 1 (g). (1) With regard to: the performance and effectiveness of the NSW government agencies that are responsible for the augmentation of water supply for rural and regional NSW. This year will make ten years since my wife and I moved from the industrial centre of Gladstone in Central Queensland to Bingara in Gwydir Shire NSW. In 2007, drought was widespread and water restrictions were everywhere. Bingara was not so affected and this in combination with the scenic Gwydir River influenced us to settle in Bingara. We bought an urban property but before we moved in, received written advice from Council not to drink the water as it was contaminated with arsenic. My enquiries met with differing advice. The Department of Environment maintained the arsenic came from naturally occurring sludge in Copeton Dam while Council alleged the source was from an old gold and silver mine that the EPA had attempted but failed to properly remediate. -
