INTRODUCTIION This report was prepared by Bruce Frazer of Bruce Frazer Planning Services for and on behalf of Mr. Keith Lavis of Narooma as an Environmental Impact Statement persuant to Section 77 (3) (d) of the Environmental Planning and Assessment Act, 1979 It applies to a proposal to win material from land at Bodalla in the vicinity of the Tu.ross River oNned by Mr. Lavis. It is to accompany a. development application lodged with the Eurobodalla S h i r e Co u n c i 1. In accordance with clause 35 of the Environmental Planning and Assessment Regulation 1980 the Director was ,notified of the I ntert ion! to prepare this statement His response dated 2nd September, 1985 prescribed matters to be addressed in this statement in addition to those listed in clause 34 of the Regulation. The letter is reproduced in appendix 1 2 SUMMARY This report has been prepared to accompany an application for an extractive industry on Lot 13 DP 12290 Parish Bodalla to the Eurobada.11a Shire Cauncii It is proposed to remove sand and a. little river-gravel from three areas within the site each with a. different mode of operat i on The river bed (above the low or normal +1014 channel) Mater iä.l will be extracted from holes in the sand. During floods much of this material will be replaced The flood plain on the northern bank. Here a -face will be cut to a depth of about two metres and proceed upstream. Restorat i on of the resu it i rg -f 1 our wi 1 1 be undertaken progressively. Flood spoil. Floods deposit sand on the pasture on the southern side of the river from time to time. It is proposed simply to remove this material and allow the pasture to rcgcuierate as quichly as possible. in evaiLlat inq the impact of these oper-at ions the main matter to be considered 15 the impact of such activities on the flow of the Tuross River. By using accepted operat i rig procedures and proqress i vely re i nstat i na the land the impact on the river- system and, in fact, the surrounding environment will be minimal. The material to be extracted has value in the building and construction field and the ra.niqe of material types-from fires to river rock will satisfy a comrnuri ty demand and, as a product of the pits strategic location offer cost savings. This is particularl >' true of bricklaying sand which is an expensive rommodity in this area at present. 3. CONCLUSIONS By the implementation of the measures described in this statement the extraction of material from the proposed site will benefit the community and make a minimal impact on the environment. The Tuross River itself will not be si9nificantly affected under the modes of operation outlineth This statement concludes that. there is no reason why the extractive operation over Lot 13 DP 12290 should not proceed. 4. SITE 4.1 Location The Extract ion sites are located on a. property knori as "Bonney Boone" bein'R Lot 13 PP 12290 Parish of Bodalla. Lot 13 has an area of about 24 ha and includes the bed and stream of the Tuross River which runs through it. The sites are adj acerit to the River. Map 1 shows the location of the property. 4.2 Tenure The subject land is owned in fee simple by Mr. Keith Lavis of Naroorna 5 the applicant for the proposed development. 1.3 Zoning Under Interim Development Order No. 3 Shire of Eurobodal la the land is zoned 1 (a) Non-Ui- ban A. Under draft local E n v i ronmenta.i Plan No. 101 which has been exhibited the land is within the Rural 1(a) zone. In each of these zones "c'::.:tractive industries" of which the proposal is one, are permi tted uses requiring the consent of the CoLInc ji The aubject land presentl' has. existing use rights as recognised b eounc r xtraction of sand from the river bed at the western end o-f the main resource. (Registration @ 129) (see m a p 2 and section 4.4 below) The proposal reprsser;ts a rnaj or extension to the open-at i ng area and a. change in procedure from the existing. Consent is there-1ore r.jjr.ed rom the Courci I Courici l's approval will be sought f o r the extraction of mater i a- i from the whole c-f the river bed 5 the flood plain and -for the remova of flood spoil deposited on the adjacent grazing land. These miii be described jr, detail later in this statement. Such an approval will thereFore cover the existing p i t area. It 1E the Owr!er5 intention to eventual h' terminate all existing ar riargements with the operators and al low future e:x:tract ion only in accordance with the process outlined below. 1 4 Adiacent_cPIL The Tuross River \Jalle.' is a productive farming area w i t h dairyirig the main agricultural pursuit. Beef cattle grazing and some cropping eare also undertaken, The site is sul- rourded by dairy farms. The a-eeoc i a-ted farm bull di rigs ar-c- shown on map 2 ri 'tAL 1,217 Sand and soil extr-ction has been carried out alonq the Tuross River for many years Extractive sites are to be found within one ki lornetre upstream and downstream of the proposed si te. The site itself is now being worked under existing use rights recognised by the Eurobodalla Shire Council and registered as Pits G129 and Q180 THE PROPOSAL 5.1 Qjçjves The objectives of the Bonny Doone pit are: to extract up to 10,000 m3 of sand, soil, river gravel and river rock from the site each year with allowance made for future growth in demand for these materials. to satisfy a demand for fine sand which is not being adequately served at present. to extract the material in a cost effective manner. to minimise the impact on the environment, particular-ly to the Tgross River and its immediate environs. to rehabilitate the site progressively by the reinstatement of pasture following the extraction of material. to remove flood spoil from existing pasture following floods. 5.2 The Resource 5.2.1 Characteristics of the Material The extracted material comprises the following: 1. fines river sand river grave1 coarse river gravel 5 river rock the predominant material is river sand and fines. Material of river gravel size and above make up something less than two percent of the resource. The material has been deposi ted by the river during f loads; the stratification can be clearly seen ranging from river rock at 100 mm diameter to black silt to sandy fines. This variation is evident in the flood plain but the material in the river bed is more u.n iformn coa.ser sand with a little river gravel. At the site of the face extraction (as outl med in 5.3 below) the resource is underlain by a.

Acknowledgements In producing this thesis I am indebted to many folk who have kindly helped along the way. My supervisors John Chappell and Ian Prosser were both generous with their ideas and patience. Ian was a consistent source of encouragement and support through the inevitable ups and downs of PhD research. John Chappell greatly assisted in coalescing what seemed like a swirling confusion of observations into a thesis and was ever ready with a salient geomorphic example from some exotic location to correct twisted thinking. Jon Olley deserves a special mention of thanks. Without his generous offer to provide luminescence dates, as well as his continuing encouragement, this thesis would never have been completed. Chris Leslie, Jacqui Olley and Ken MacMillan are also thanked for contributing to the luminescence dating. Damien Kelleher is truly a man worth his weight in gold. Always good company in the field, his expertise in sediment core drilling is unsurpassed and my sincerest thanks are extended to him for his efforts. Damien, along with Abaz Alimanovic, also performed the radiocarbon dating in thesis. Those who assisted in the fieldwork and put up with droughts, bushfires, snakes, stink- ing hot weather all on top of any trouble I might have caused included Martin Weisse, Chuck Magee, Paul Treble, Toshi Fujioka, Thomas Schambron, Martin Smith and Si- mon Mockler.

  • Monitoring the Ecosystem Health of Estuaries on the NSW South Coast
    Monitoring the Ecosystem Health of Estuaries on the NSW South Coast D Wiecek 1, R Laine 1, M Edmonds 2, and S Pickering 3 1 NSW Office of Environment and Heritage, Wollongong, NSW 2 Eurobodalla Shire Council, NSW 3 Shoalhaven City Council, NSW Abstract Working with Councils to gain an improved understanding of the ecosystem health of estuaries is a key objective of the NSW Government Estuary Management Program, administered by the Office of Environment and Heritage (OEH). A well designed monitoring program can provide this understanding. Over the past few years both Shoalhaven City and Eurobodalla Shire Councils have embarked on additional estuary monitoring to enable them to provide baseline information on the ecosystem health of their respective estuaries. This information will also be used to help evaluate and report on the implementation of their estuary management plans (now termed coastal zone management plans), as well as inform ongoing management directions. Shoalhaven City and Eurobodalla Shire Councils’ estuary monitoring programs have historically centred on pressure indicators such as nutrients and/or bacterial sampling. Although very useful in monitoring pollution sources and recreational swimming quality, this has not provided Council with information sufficient to determine whether estuary ecosystem health is declining, being maintained or improving through initiatives such as implementation of estuary management plans. Both Councils recognised the need to modify their existing programs to fill this information gap in a scientifically robust and consistent manner. They now have two years of monitoring completed broadly in line with the monitoring and reporting protocols of the NSW Government Natural Resources Monitoring, Reporting and Evaluation (MER) Program (estuary theme).

  • The Tuross River Story
    MEDIA RELEASE 21 December 2012 The Tuross River Story Bodalla Public School (BPS) students with parents, grandparents, carers, family members and guests recently celebrated the official launch of Ngadjung gadhu-ya (Fresh water to salt water) – A Tuross River Story. Earlier this year 26 BPS students from years 5 and 6 participated in a research excursion organised by Southern Rivers Catchment Management Authority (CMA) as part of an education program to assist children to learn more about local catchments – plants, animals, Aboriginal culture and heritage, industries and history. Southern Rivers CMA catchment officer, Karen Lee said the children worked as a team during the last term to produce the book about the Tuross River and surrounding catchment which is written in English and the local Aboriginal Dhurga language. “The children put an enormous amount of effort into researching and writing the book which demonstrates their appreciation and sense of stewardship of the catchment. They wrote about the importance of protecting this precious resource and maintaining the Indigenous culture associated with it. “The Tuross River Story starts high in the Kybeyan, near Cooma and finishes with the River’s journey at Tuross Head on the coast.” The school was presented with an award at the book launch from the office of the Member for Bega, Andrew Constance MP for its participation in the project. Principal, Therese Aston said the book’s production was a valuable and enriching experience for the students. “Since becoming involved in the book initiative the school will now include in its curriculum more Aboriginal culture and heritage activities and excursions.

By KEITH C. McKEOWN, Assistant Entomologist, The Australian Museum. THE accompanying paper embodies the results of the investigation into the food of trout in New South Wales carried out during the season 1935-1936, and gives details of the stomach contents of 108 Rainbow Trout (Salmo irideus Gibbons) and 72 Brown Trout (Salmo tario Linnams). The information obtained in the course of the season's work forms a valuable addition to our knowledge of the varied forms of life which constitute the diet of the fish in those inland waters from which it was possible to obtain material for examination. Members of the Rod Fishers' Society of New South Wales again ably assisted in securing and submitting stomachs from the fish caught, and by their encouragement and co-operation have rendered the investigation possible. It is, however, somewhat disappointing that so few streams are represented, in spite of repeated requests for material from new localities, especially as the information which could have been obtained from such sources would have been of undoubted value in estimating the relative suitability of these waters for future liberation of fry.
