Authorised by the State Government of Victoria, 50 Lonsdale Street, Melbourne. Printed on sustainable paper by Impact Digital, Unit 3-4, 306 Albert St, Brunswick 3056 March 2011 (1101024) Foreword The provision of safe drinking water to Victoria’s urban and rural communities is essential for maintaining public health and wellbeing. In Victoria, drinking water quality is protected by legislation that recognises drinking water’s importance to the state’s ongoing social and economic wellbeing. The regulatory framework for Victoria’s drinking water is detailed in the Safe Drinking Water Act 2003 and the Safe Drinking Water Regulations 2005. The Act and Regulations provide a comprehensive framework based on a catchment-to-tap approach that actively safeguards the quality of drinking water throughout Victoria. The main objectives of this regulatory framework are to ensure that: • where water is supplied as drinking water, it is safe to drink • any water not intended to be drinking water cannot be mistaken for drinking water • water quality information is disclosed to consumers and open to public accountability.

  • Cool Temperate Mixed Forest Investigation Report
    INVESTIGATION REPORT COOL TEMPERATE RAINFOREST & MIXED FOREST RAINFOREST SITE OF SIGNIFICANCE (EG85 - Hensleigh - Far Creek) COAST RANGE ROAD VicForests Logging coupe 886-509-0012 Abstract Sections of VicForests scheduled logging coupe 886-509-0012 were investigated to assess the presence and extent of Cool Temperate Rainforest and Cool Temperate Mixed Forest communities. Areas of Cool Temperate Rainforest were identified within coupe 886-509-0012. These areas of the study location were readily identified by the presence of rainforest character species and the comparative structural composition of these stands to those expected to be found in mature rainforest. Cool Temperate Mixed Forest (Mixed Forest) areas of the study location within coupe 886-509- 0012 were identified by noting the presence of characteristic Mixed Forest species including in their formation of a multi-layer structured community comprised of Mixed Forest character species of an advanced age class, the presence of cool temperate rainforest character and differential species, and the topographic contiguity and relative proximity between the Mixed Forest areas within coupe 886-509- 0012 and the extant Mixed Forest clearly identifiable in the adjacent forest areas immediately to the north of coupe 886-509-0012 across Coast Range Road in the Errinundra National Park. This investigation also notes that coupe 886-509-0012 is located within a “Rainforest Site of Significance” (EG85 - Hensleigh - Far Creek). Recommendations are made to the Department of Environment, Land, Water and Planning (DELWP) and to VicForests to ensure that all areas of Cool Temperate Rainforest and Mixed Forest are excluded from logging and that no further logging is undertaken within the “Rainforest Site of Significance”.

  • Snowy River Basin January 2014
    Snowy River Basin January 2014 Introduction Southern Rural Water is the water corporation responsible for administering and enforcing the Snowy River Basin Local Management Plan. The purpose of the Snowy River Basin Local Management Plan is to: • document the management objectives for the system • explain to licence holders (and the broader community) the specific management objectives and arrangements for their water resource and the rules that apply to them as users of that resource; • clarify water sharing arrangements for all users and the environment, including environmental flow requirements • document any limits, including water use caps, permissible consumptive volumes or extraction limits that apply to the system. Management objectives The objective of the Local Management Plan is to ensure the equitable sharing of water between users and the environment and the long-term sustainability of the resource. Water system covered The Local Management Plan covers all the rivers and creeks located within the Snowy River Basin, which includes: • Snowy River • Major Creek • Brodribb River • Buchan River • Deddick River • Cabbage Tree Creek • Hospital Creek The Snowy River Basin is shown in the map below. Catchment information The Snowy River flows across the NSW border to the coast at Marlo. Significant tributaries of the Snowy River include Buchan, Murrindal, Suggan Buggan, Deddick and Brodribb Rivers. The Snowy floodplain contains a complex system of drains and levee banks to support agricultural production. Heritage River status applies to the entire Victorian length of the Snowy River. The Snowy has many significant attributes including canoeing and rafting opportunities, scenic landscapes, cultural Indigenous heritage sites and native fish and fauna habitat.

  • East Gippsland Forest Management Area Logging Years 2004/5-2006/7
    Wood Utilisation Plan Submission for the East Gippsland Forest Management Area Logging Years 2004/5-2006/7 Prepared by the Victorian Rainforest Network 29/2/2004 Table of Contents Issues: 1. FFG Action Statement. 2. Forest Code of Practice 3. Rainforest Sites of Significance 4. Management boundary alterations 5. SMZ Plans 6. Systematic Monitoring & Evaluation 7. Consultation process 1.0 FFG Action Statement The FFG Action Statement for rainforests represents the most important planning instrument for rainforest conservation and management within the existing policy and legislative framework. After 12 years, the release of the long awaited FFG Action Statement is imminent. This planning instrument is likely to alter the exiting interim minimum rainforest management strategies and zoning boundaries. Logging within RSOS areas before this critical planning instrument is released will result in logging operations pre-empting the planning review process. The release of this action statement will require a review of existing rainforest management guidelines and zoning arrangements. A precautionary approach is warranted when a high degree of scientific uncertainty exists in relation to the effectiveness of existing rainforest conservation strategies. The risks posed by logging operations are proportional to the significance of particular rainforest stands. This entails that the most significant rainforest stands should be afforded greater caution in planning, especially when a major planning instrument is set to refine current guidelines and zone boundaries. The VRN calls on the EG senior forester to defer logging in all RSOS to allow for the release, review and implementation of the long awaited FFG Action Statement. This would ensure the DSE is seen to be following due process, and not preempting a revision of the planning rules, now long overdue.
