  • Dry Seasonal Conditions in Rural Victoria
    Department of Primary Industries Dry Seasonal Conditions in Rural Victoria Report: 51 September 22, 2005 Environmental Indicators Rainfall August rainfall totals were close to normal. Over winter as a whole, rainfall was somewhat above normal in the North East and in East Gippsland, somewhat below normal in Central Victoria and in West Gippsland, and near to normal elsewhere. August had a warm spell at the end of the month following the widespread snow on the 10th. Overall daytime temperatures were 1°C above average and nightime temperatures were about average. For the 6-month period from March to August, serious to severe rainfall deficiencies extend from the far southeast of South Australia across southwest and south-central Victoria to west Gippsland. The deficiencies over southern Victoria are not as extensive or intense as they were at the end of July. The most significant rainfall in September occurred through the second week and varied from 0-5 mm in the north west to over 100 mm in pockets of the North East (Figure 1). The seasonal rainfall outlook for October to December indicates an increased likelihood of below median falls over parts of southern Victoria for the December quarter. Chances of above median rainfall are between 30 and 40% in a band extending from the far southeast of South Australia to West Gippsland. This includes most of the areas that have suffered severe short-term rainfall deficiencies since the start of autumn, and a general downturn in rainfall since the mid 1990s. The chances of a wetter than average season are between 40 and 50% over the rest of the State.

    We Are Vivid Annual Report 2018-2019 Acknowledgement Vivid acknowledges and pays tribute to the traditional custodians of all the lands on which we work. We pay our respects to their elders past, present and emerging. We express our sincere gratitude for their love and care of the land and all life. 2 3 Welcome Scott Alexander, CEO The last year was notable for its challenges and achievements. And progress towards becoming the organisation we need to be. This was reflected in the substantial investment made for the future. Our primary focus is, of course, on improving outcomes for the people we support. So, there have been relentless efforts in improving service offerings in our core businesses of Day Services and Supported Employment. At all of our Day Services sites – Swan Hill, Kerang, Kyabram and Echuca – a revamped program delivery structure, together with a makeover of programs, was introduced and well received. At all of our Supported Employment sites the numbers and varieties of contracts, providing paid employment to our Supported Employees, continued to grow. Vivid’s services in Support Coordination and home based supports have also expanded substantially. It was the biggest year we’ve ever had with renewing fleet vehicles – and this is in a sector where many disability service providers have exited from transport services. A real highlight of the past year has been recruitment which is often a challenge in the disability sector. Nevertheless we’ve done remarkably well with the quality of new employees we’ve been fortunate to secure in the last 12 months.
