  • Integrated Surface Water and Groundwater Modelling to Support the Murray Drainage and Water Management Plan, South-West Western Australia
    19th International Congress on Modelling and Simulation, Perth, Australia, 12–16 December 2011 http://mssanz.org.au/modsim2011 Integrated surface water and groundwater modelling to support the Murray Drainage and Water Management Plan, south-west Western Australia J. Hall a, B. Marillier a, P. Kretschmer a, B. Quinton a a Water Science Branch, Water Resources Management Division, Department of Water, Western Australia Email: [email protected] Abstract: The Murray region in south-west Western Australia is characterised by a high water-table, sandy soils, wetlands of significance, and an extensive agricultural drainage system to relieve water-logging in winter months. Urban growth pressures in the region have led to the requirement of a Drainage and Water Management Plan (DWMP) to guide future water management. A key component of the DWMP involved the development of a regional surface water and groundwater model to determine groundwater levels and flows under various climate, drainage and development scenarios. The Murray regional model was constructed using the integrated surface water and groundwater model MIKE SHE, and consisted of unsaturated zone, saturated zone, channel flow and overland flow components. It had a constant grid spacing of 200 m, and covered an area of 722 km2. Calibration was from 1985 – 2000 and validation from 2000 – 2009 using 45 groundwater bores and 7 surface water flow gauges. The normalised root mean square error of the calibrated model was 2.02%. Land development, drainage and climate scenarios were simulated and their results are discussed in this paper. The process of model conceptualisation, construction, calibration and simulation is discussed, and provides an appropriate framework for model evaluation and a high level of confidence in modelling results.

  • Environmental Guidance for Planning and Development
    Part A Environmental protection and land use planning in Western Australia Environmental Guidance for Part B Biophysical factors Planning and Development Part C Pollution management May 2008 Part D Social surroundings Guidance Statement No. 33 2007389-0508-50 Foreword The Environmental Protection Authority (EPA) is an independent statutory authority and is the key provider of independent environmental advice to Government. The EPA’s objectives are to protect the environment and to prevent, control and abate pollution and environmental harm. The EPA aims to achieve some of this through the development of environmental protection guidance statements for the environmental impact assessment (EIA) of proposals. This document is one in a series being issued by the EPA to assist proponents, consultants and the public generally to gain additional information about the EPA’s thinking in relation to aspects of the EIA process. The series provides the basis for EPA’s evaluation of, and advice on, proposals under S38 and S48A of the Environmental Protection Act 1986 (EP Act) subject to EIA. The guidance statements are one part of assisting proponents, decision-making authorities and others in achieving environmentally acceptable outcomes. Consistent with the notion of continuous environmental improvement and adaptive environmental management, the EPA expects proponents to take all reasonable and practicable measures to protect the environment and to view the requirements of this Guidance as representing the minimum standards necessary. The main purposes of this EPA guidance statement are: • to provide information and advice to assist participants in land use planning and development processes to protect, conserve and enhance the environment • to describe the processes the EPA may apply under the EP Act to land use planning and development in Western Australia, and in particular to describe the environmental impact assessment (EIA) process applied by the EPA to schemes.

  • A Review of Knowledge on the Effect of Key Disturbances on Aquatic Invertebrates and Fish in the South-West Forest Region of Western Australia
    A Review of Knowledge on the Effect of Key Disturbances on Aquatic Invertebrates and Fish in the South-west Forest Region of Western Australia By P. Horwitz1, E. Jasinska 1, E. Fairhurst2 and J.A. Davis2 1 Centre for Ecosystem Management, Edith Cowan University, Joondalup, Western Australia 6027 2 School of Biological Science, Murdoch University, Murdoch, Western Australia 6150 A Report Prepared for ENVIRONMENT AUSTRALIA Environment Forest Taskforce October 1997 1 1. INTRODUCTION, RATIONALE AND APPROACH The present report is a review of the knowledge of the effects of key disturbances on the aquatic invertebrates and fish in the south-west forest region of Western Australia. The aims of the review were to: A) review and collate all available information on the impact of disturbances, including single and multiple disturbance effects, on species and communities of aquatic macroinvertebrates and fish; B) where information is available, describe the recovery of species and communities from the disturbance and identify management actions which will ameliorate the negative impacts of disturbances on species and communities; C) where appropriate, provide summary statements of the best available knowledge; D) identify gaps in knowledge on the subject of impacts of disturbances and recommend directions for future research; E) provide recommendations for the management of aquatic invertebrates and fish with regard to each disturbance type. The area/region covered by this review includes the high rainfal region of south-west Australia, principally that area defined for the Regional Forest Agreement (the bioregions of Jarrah and Warren). This review also draws on information which has been compiled for locations adjacent to these two bioregions, for the following reasons: • similar threatening processes are likely to be operative both outside and inside these bioregions; • forests occur outside these two bioregions (for instance tuart forests and pine forests), and • populations of species may occur across the nominal bioregional boundaries.

    Western Australian Bird Notes Quarterly Newsletter of Birds Australia - WA Group (a division of Royal Australasian Ornithologists Union) ABBOTT'S BOOBY: FIRST RECORD FOR WA !I 1I i Head of Abbott's Booby at Broome what it was -no other bird has those markings. The bird Photograph by Adrian Bo~le was an adult male Abbott's Booby. We took loads of Seepap 2fi for Notice ofExtraordifiarj.GenM Meeting photographs and Dan showed us how the bird eats the live fish he had caught. The bird was in great condition considering where it had just been blown from - it just needed to put on some weight and it would be fine. Because Dan was a fisherman, this seemed the ideal place for an Abbott's Booby to be blown ashore! The booby was looked after well and was flown back to Christmas Island on Christmas Eve.
