  • Kooragang Wetlands: Retrospective of an Integrated Ecological Restoration Project in the Hunter River Estuary
    KOORAGANG WETLANDS: RETROSPECTIVE OF AN INTEGRATED ECOLOGICAL RESTORATION PROJECT IN THE HUNTER RIVER ESTUARY P Svoboda Hunter Local Land Services, Paterson NSW Introduction: At first glance, the Hunter River estuary near Newcastle NSW is a land of contradictions. It is home to one of the world’s largest coal ports and a large industrial complex as well as being the location of a large internationally significant wetland. The remarkable natural productivity of the Hunter estuary at the time of European settlement is well documented. Also well documented are the degradation and loss of fisheries and other wildlife habitat in the estuary due to over 200 years of draining, filling, dredging and clearing (Williams et al., 2000). However, in spite of extensive modification, natural systems of the estuary retained enough value and function for large areas to be transformed by restoration activities that aimed to show industry and environmental conservation could work together to their mutual benefit. By establishing partnerships and taking a collaborative and adaptive approach, the project was able to implement restoration and related activities on a landscape basis, working across land ownership and management boundaries (Kooragang Wetland Rehabilitation Project, 2010). The Kooragang Wetland Rehabilitation Project (KWRP) was launched in 1993 to help compensate for the loss of fisheries and other wildlife habitat at suitable sites in the Hunter estuary. This paper revisits the expectations and planning for the project as presented in a paper to the INTECOL’s V international wetlands conference in 1996 (Svoboda and Copeland, 1998), reviews the project’s activities, describes outcomes and summarises issues faced and lessons learnt during 24 years of implementing a large, long-term, integrated, adaptive and community-assisted ecological restoration project.

  • Chapter 8 – the BRIDGE OPENS, the PUNT SERVICE CLOSES
    CHAPTER EIGHT: THE BRIDGE OPENS; THE PUNT SERVICE CLOSES The build-up in traffic volume using the punts continued apace as the years went by. According to the DMR the volume of traffic had increased from an average of 3,450 daily crossings in 1963 to an average of 4,060 in 1970. The ever-lengthening queues at peak periods meant that any occasional stoppages of the punts caused more and more havoc with the travelling public. On top of all this, the punts themselves were not exactly spring chickens, and the cost of running the punt service had risen to around $800,000 a year by the time the bridge was opened. I wonder what Peter Callen would have made of that! As we saw in the last chapter, the need for a bridge had become urgent well before a new bridge was even seriously mooted. In September 1957 Main Roads reported that The Newcastle -Stockton ferry service is the most heavily trafficked ferry service operated by the Department of Main Roads; consideration is being given to the question of ultimately providing a bridge further upstream to take the place of the ferry, although any such bridge will clearly be a costly work. As is the way with projects of this magnitude, it took the DMR until the late 1960s to begin construction of the bridge. The exact start of construction is not easy to specify because there was a lot of reclamation work which had to be done first on either side. Prior to calling tenders, the DMR constructed the piles for the approach spans to ground level - saving costs and total project time.
