Water Compliance Report
WATER COMPLIANCE REPORT 2018 - 2019 Water Year Water Report 2018 - 2019 1 ABOUT THIS REPORT COMPLYING WITH Since the Snowy Scheme’s completion in 1974, Snowy Hydro Limited has carefully managed the water that flows through the Scheme’s dams, tunnels, aqueducts and power stations in accordance with our OUR LICENCE water licence. This report outlines how we are managing the water that flows through the Scheme. Snowy Hydro complied with all of the requirements imposed upon the company under the Snowy Hydro operates a complex hydro-electric scheme utilising the water captured by the Scheme Snowy Water Licence during the 2018 - 19 water year, including each water release target to generate energy to meet the market’s needs, while also moving water from east to west to support relating to: irrigation districts. ● The Required Annual Release to the River Murray catchment. Each year, we have to reach certain targets for downstream and environmental water releases. Snowy ● The Required Annual Release to the Murrumbidgee River catchment. Hydro has operational flexibility day-to-day to strategically manage our generation and water releases while at the same time giving long-term security to the downstream users around annual water releases. ● Environmental releases into the Snowy River from Jindabyne Dam. In the Snowy Scheme, water releases and electricity generation are inseparably linked. ● Environmental releases into the Murrumbidgee River from Tantangara Dam. ● Environmental releases into the Goodradigbee River from Goodradigbee Aqueduct. Snowy Hydro is operated under the Snowy Water Licence, issued to us by the NSW Government. The licence has many legally-binding and enforceable obligations on the company. -

Rare Or Threatened Vascular Plant Species of Wollemi National Park, Central Eastern New South Wales
Rare or threatened vascular plant species of Wollemi National Park, central eastern New South Wales. Stephen A.J. Bell Eastcoast Flora Survey PO Box 216 Kotara Fair, NSW 2289, AUSTRALIA Abstract: Wollemi National Park (c. 32o 20’– 33o 30’S, 150o– 151oE), approximately 100 km north-west of Sydney, conserves over 500 000 ha of the Triassic sandstone environments of the Central Coast and Tablelands of New South Wales, and occupies approximately 25% of the Sydney Basin biogeographical region. 94 taxa of conservation signiicance have been recorded and Wollemi is recognised as an important reservoir of rare and uncommon plant taxa, conserving more than 20% of all listed threatened species for the Central Coast, Central Tablelands and Central Western Slopes botanical divisions. For a land area occupying only 0.05% of these divisions, Wollemi is of paramount importance in regional conservation. Surveys within Wollemi National Park over the last decade have recorded several new populations of signiicant vascular plant species, including some sizeable range extensions. This paper summarises the current status of all rare or threatened taxa, describes habitat and associated species for many of these and proposes IUCN (2001) codes for all, as well as suggesting revisions to current conservation risk codes for some species. For Wollemi National Park 37 species are currently listed as Endangered (15 species) or Vulnerable (22 species) under the New South Wales Threatened Species Conservation Act 1995. An additional 50 species are currently listed as nationally rare under the Briggs and Leigh (1996) classiication, or have been suggested as such by various workers. Seven species are awaiting further taxonomic investigation, including Eucalyptus sp. -
Final Research Report for the Australian Flora Foundation Research Grant 1993
FINAL RESEARCH REPORT FOR THE AUSTRALIAN FLORA FOUNDATION RESEARCH GRANT 1993 Development, Germination and Dormancy of Actinotus helianthi (Flannel Flower) Seeds Lynette A Lee, Dr Peter B Goodwin Department of Crop Sciences, University of Sydney NSW 2006 Introduction Actinotus helianthi, the Sydney or Common Flannel Flower, has considerable horticultural potential as a cut flower, and as a rockery or container plant. It belongs to the family Apiaceae (syn. Umbelliferae), which includes many well known culinary herbs and vegetables, such as carrot, celery, parsley and dill. Flannel flowers are one of. the more common and attractive wildflowers found growing naturally in sandstone country along the east coast of NSW and southern Queensland. However, their use in cultivation is presently restricted because of erratic germination from seed. The aim of the current project was to investigate the development, germination and dormancy of flannel flower seeds in order to obtain a greater understanding of their germination requirements, and to thereby find a means of achieving better germination from seed. This will in turn help to reduce pressure, on wild populations, by increasing the production of plants in cultivation. Specifically, the objectives of this project were: i) to investigate whether the poor seed germination is due to low seed viability or seed dormancy; ii) to examine ways of improving germination; iii) and to study the seed anatomy. Materials and Methods: During late 1992 and early 1993, seed was collected from eight locations around NSW, in areas extending from the Royal National Park south of Sydney to South West Rocks on the North Coast (see Appendix 1). -

Presenter: John Hibberd John is the Executive Director of the Conservation Council ACT Region. He will talk about the future of the ACT. The Conservation Council has formed the Acton Group to develop a set of alternative visions of Canberra, and to engage with government, the professions, business and civil society. Four scenarios are under development, to realistically identify potential futures for the ACT. They will encompass a range of residential intensities with varying urban footprints. As these are described, assumptions assessed, and barriers to change identifi ed, the Acton Group will instigate a staged process of engagement with the community, the private sector and government to catalyse debate.
