This document is copyright of the Programme. All other trademarks and copyrights referenced herein are acknowledged Disclaimer Bushwalking and mountain climbing are potentially hazardous activities. Mountainous terrain is subject to rapid changes in weather, and higher elevations Page 1 of 17 Document S78.1 Summits on the Air – ARM for Australia-ACT (VK1) can experience snow at any time of the year. The terrain may be unstable and subject to rock-falls and other hazards. The Australian Capital Territory countryside is home to various species of snakes, some of which have poisonous venom that can be fatal, or lead to other serious consequences. Other animals such as some spiders and ants can bite with potentially serious consequences. Some spiders carry venom that can lead to death. Some people may suffer from conditions that cause those persons to enter shock from certain ants or wasp bites. The SOTA Management Team, the Australia – A.C.T. Association and their officers shall not accept responsibility for any death, injury or liability in any form resulting from participation in SOTA activities within any state or territory within Australia or anywhere else in the world. The inclusion of a summit in this Reference Manual does not indicate that it is safe, legal, or even possible to climb the summit. The Summit Reference data is not guaranteed to be accurate and no reliance shall be placed upon it. Any participant shall check applicable local government, state and Commonwealth laws to be sure that a bushwalk or climb up any of the summits listed in this manual is legal. Some summits in this manual do reside on private property and the pursuit of SOTA activities shall respect private property rights. Some areas of Australia are public land, but are closed to public access, including “closed” water catchment areas and “reference areas” within parks managed by National Parks authorities. Significant criminal penalties can apply if participants enter these areas. As a particular caution to European hikers, please note that “Every Man’s Right” does not exist in Australia; permission to cross private lands must be expressly granted and cannot be assumed. Some Australian mountains are very challenging during winter and require considerable steep snow and ice handling skills, including the equipment and knowledge of how to self-arrest. It is up the individual to determine his/her personal assessment of fitness level, skill, training and experience to safely attempt bushwalking or climbing in Australia. The Australia – A.C.T. Association is Incorporated under SOTA rules, but it is merely an informal mechanism of advise to the international SOTA program. There is neither an Incorporated Association or an Unincorporated Association under any state or territory act in Australia that operates within Australia.

The list of summits is based on mapping data available from: Australian Capital Territory: Geoscience Australia, the A.C.T. Government Territory and Municipal Services. The list of summits is believed to be comprehensive, but not necessarily exhaustive. Google Maps is used as a secondary source. The summit reference list shall be updated on a regular basis. Your help to identify new summits is not only welcome but encouraged where you are aware of any summit not referenced in this manual that meets the association criteria. Please refer to section 2.10 Process to maintain summit reference list. In particular, the association seeks to extend the program to other states and territories throughout Australia, including the external territories. 2.2 General information The SOTA General Rules shall govern and take precedence over any rules found herein.

  • 1. Bimberi Hydrogeological Landscape
    1. Bimberi Hydrogeological Landscape Bimberi Peak, Bimberi Nature LOCALITIES Reserve, part of Namadgi National Park Low Low Land Salt Load Salinity (in-stream) Brindabella 1:100 000 MAP SHEET Tantangara 1:100 000 Low EC (in-stream) CONFIDENCE LEVEL Moderate OVERVIEW The Bimberi Hydrogeological Landscape (HGL) extends in a north-south strip in the west of the ACT in the Namadgi National Park (Figure 1). The HGL covers an area of 80 km2 and receives 1000 to 1700 mm of rain per annum. Figure 1: Bimberi HGL distribution map. Bimberi HGL is defined by a soil landscape boundary of Bimberi Soil Landscape (Figure 2). There are high altitude (alpine) and sub alpine areas in the landscape, which is granitic, with small tors and rounded dome shaped hills. A feature of the landscape is large areas of peat wetlands in the higher landscape units, which have developed behind bedrock controlled areas or in depressions. This is different from Clear Range HGL, which has shallow rocky soils with steep slopes. Namadgi HGL is also a granitic landscape, with distinctive tors in the upper landscape. In the alpine area there are large numbers of peat bogs in the higher landscape units, with more water stored in Organosol soils. These areas act as a ‘sponges’ and influence the hydrology of the whole unit. Water movement is via through-flow, with constant delivery of water fed by the peats and the organosols in the higher altitudes to the lower landscape so that flow in the system often continues well after rain. There is high rainfall and runoff in the area and occasional snowfall which drives the water dynamics.

    AUSTRALIAN CAPITAL TERRITORY Editor: John Ashe Planning and Land Bill 2002 On 27 June 2002 the Minister for Planning, Simon Corbell, tabled legislation to establish a new Planning and Land Authority to manage the Territory’s planning and land functions. The Bill implements an election promise made before the Legislative Assembly election in October 2001. The proposed authority will have responsibility for the planning, leasing, land administration, development assessment and building control functions currently managed by the Planning and Land Management Group in the Department of Urban Services. The Authority will also be responsible for the policy aspects of land development, and will incorporate the responsibilities of the present Commissioner for Land and Planning. Mr Corbell said that the Authority will have the power to make development decisions in its own right rather than as the Minister’s delegate, and day-to-day decisions will be free from ministerial or other political involvement. The Authority will be led by a Chief Planning Executive and staffed by public servants. It will be advised by a new expert Planning and Land Council of up to seven appointees with expert qualifications and experience covering a range of disciplines. The Council will provide advice to both the Minister and the Authority. The Bill also provides for the return of land development in the ACT from the private to the public sector by the creation of a Land Development Agency. The Agency will be established as a corporation empowered to develop land, carry out works for the development and enhance- ment of land, and to undertake strategic and complex urban development projects.

  • New Australian and Australian State Lichen and Lichenicolous Lichen Reports
    J Hattori Bot. Lab. No. 90: 269- 291 (July. 2001) NEW AUSTRALIAN AND AUSTRALIAN STATE LICHEN AND LICHENICOLOUS LICHEN REPORTS 1 2 3 4 D. ALLEN , H. T. LUMBSCH , S. MADDEN AND H. SrPMAN ABSTRACT. Based on recent acquisitions of the Australian National Herbarium since 1982, mainly the collections of J.A.Elix and H.Streimann, new distribution data are presented for 162 species. This includes 31 species new to Australia: Acarospora reagens, Co/lema fragrans, Cyphelium australe, Dictyonema ligulatum, Dimerella pineti, Diploschistes farinosus, D. gyrophoricus, Dirinaria compli­ cata, Heterodermia isidiophora, Hyperphyscia pruinosa, Megalospora atrorubicans ssp. atrorubi­ cans, Myriotrema bahianum, M. compunctum, M. terebratulum, Ocellularia aurata, 0. berkeleyana, Ochrolechia africana, Opegrapha .filicina, 0. phylloporinae, Peltula marginata, Physcia dimidiata, Porina sphaerocephala, Porpidia cinereoatra, Pyrenula corticata, Pyxine cylindrica, Thelotrema platysporum, Thyrea confusa, Trapelia involuta, Trichothelium triseptatum, Trypethelium aeneum, Umbilicaria nylanderiana. Most of these are tropical taxa, found in Queensland. The other species are newly recorded for one or more Australian states. Seventeen years have elapsed since the last significant report (Elix & Streimann 1982) of new lichen records based on collections held at the Cryptogamic Herbarium of the Aus­ tralian National Herbarium (CANB). However, interesting and significant finds have been reported by various authors in revisions and in the Australasian Lichenology (formerly Australiasian Lichenological Newsletter) with many of these reports based on CANB col­ lections. The CANB collections have grown significantly since 1982 with the donation by Prof. J.A. Elix of his lichen collections and the continuing collecting program to northern Aus­ tralia which have added significantly to the knowledge of Australian lichenology.
